I'm Chizoba | Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA
Hello my name is Chizoba but you can call me Zoba (ZOO-bAH). It is a pleasure to hopefully meet you soon. As an experienced cat sitter, my passion for cats runs deep. Cats, to me, embody a uniqueness that has filled my soul with their existence of being such wonderful souls. Though I currently don't own any cats due to my commitments as a research specialist and soon to be graduate student, I've immersed myself in casually caring for them through my close involvement with my best friend's four delightful furballs who have created so much peace and joy in my heart, mind and life Beyond my personal affinity for cats, I bring practical experience to the table. During my undergraduate years, I dedicated myself to volunteering at a shelter that provided refuge for both homeless individuals and their pets. This hands-on role involved cleaning, feeding, and playing with cats and dogs, which not only enriched my understanding of animal care but also reinforced my commitment to their well-being. Additionally, I sometimes would assist my best friend's sister in volunteering at a cat shelter during my visits to Buffalo, NY, further honing my skills and knowledge. Professionally, I am currently a graduate student at Drexel University but previously worked as a Research Specialist at Adelphi Values- global healthcare value consultancy firm that blends strong commercial insights with scientific expertise in areas like market access, health economics, and patient-centered outcomes research. A role that demands precision, empathy, and attention to detail—traits essential for understanding and meeting the needs of both clients and their beloved cats. I have quite a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate various neighborhoods across Philadelphia. I am really just looking forward to gaining more experience on cat sitting and caring for cats as I hope to one day have some of my own. My ability to provide your cats the best care is reinforced by my practical experience and supported by a professional background in research and client service. I am very professional and detailed with/in my work but I also approach every opportunity with grace, joy, enthusiasm and care, ensu...

Jenny
Zoba was great! The cats really warmed up to her. I was really grateful for her quick responses and many photos, I love that in a cat sitter. Thank you, Zoba! Would book again.
Ayanna
Chizoba was wonderful to work with! The peace of mind that comes from knowing that your cat is being cared for by someone who truly enjoys doing so is priceless. She sent videos and plenty of photos with a detailed narrative of each visit. Chizoba was also very respectful of my home and I wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Chizoba did an excellent job caring for Paloma. She came a fed her and played with her. The regular updates gave me peace of mind. I recommend Chizoba for cat sitting.

Chizoba is a wonderful cat sitter. She is very conscientious, kind, and gentle. My elderly kitty warmed to her immediately. I would definitely hire her as a sitter again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
