The Purrfect Cat Sitter - Ne Philly

I'm Jaime

Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA

I grew up with cats, but despite being a huge cat lover, I currently don't have any of my own, due to my unfortunately allergic husband. I volunteered for PAWS and ACCT at various pet store locations for several years pre-pandemic, taking care of the cats that were available for adoption. At the PAWS location, we had a set list of responsibilities during our shifts, including feeding, cleaning the cages and litter boxes, administering medication as needed, facilitating meetings between potential adopters and the cats, and processing applications. The ACCT location had a dedicated staff for these things, so volunteers were mainly encouraged to just spend time with the cats, but I did assist with feeding and cleaning as needed...

The ACCT location had a dedicated staff for these things, so volunteers were mainly encouraged to just spend time with the cats, but I did assist with feeding and cleaning as needed. I often cat sit for family and friends when they go away. I have set up a cold weather shelter in my backyard for any strays in the neighborhood, and leave them food.

I am an accountant for a large insurance company. I work a 4/1 hybrid schedule, so I work from home most Fridays. I live in Fox Chase, so I would be most interested in cat sitting in northeast Philadelphia and nearby parts of Montgomery and Bucks county. I will have the most availability in the evening, but could make extra trips on the weekend and work from home days. I like to take any opportunities to spend time with cats in my downtime I can get, since I am unable to have a cat of my own, so I will cherish my time with your cats and give them all of the attention they want. I respect that some cats are cautious around strangers, so I will let them come to me, and make sure their needs are met in the way that makes them the most content and comfortable.

Learn More About Jaime

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy getting to spend time with a lot of different cats, and I absolutely love the feeling of my repeat client cats recognizing me as another trusted human in their lives!

Are you usually available during holidays?

The majority of my family and friends are local, so I am usually available during the holidays to catsit. The past few years I have been booked around Thanksgiving and Christmas!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I let timid or anxious cats take the lead. I may gently approach them, and let them sniff my hand if they seem receptive, but otherwise if they want to be left alone, I focus on feeding them and cleaning litter.

Jamie kept me up to date while I was away with photos and detailed descriptions of how she spent her time with my buddy - I felt confident and comfortable with her as my pet sitter and would not hesitate to hire her again. in fact, I have already referred her to a family member! 5 stars for Jaime!

Jaime did great with my older cat! She was able to play with her (despite the growling...) Jaime didn't that personally and continued to build trust with Minnie. She sent many pictures and great updates daily. Highly recommend her for your fur kids care while you are away.

Jaime was absolutely wonderful. She went above & beyond taking great care of our fur baby. She replenished her food and water everyday and even scooped the liter box for us. Our cat seemed to warm up to her pretty well, especially when Jaime would brush her which is her favorite thing in the whole world. I would use her again and again.

Jaime was absolutely amazing. I was looking for a cat sitter last minute and I found her and I read her reviews and she did an amazing job. She sent me pictures with updates and followed all of my instructions. She even was able to take out the garbage for me. I really appreciate everything she did and I highly recommend her to anyone. I will definitely be booking her in the future. She was very attentive, direct and kind. I trusted her into my home and had issues. Thanks Jaime!!

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

Philadelphia cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with your sitter before you leave.

Cats are territorial animals and don't do well in new environments. The presence of other cats, dogs, and even birds in kennels or animal hotels cause an immense amount of stress. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet!
