Cat Sitting in Pittsburgh, PA

**Please note that I have higher rates for the following zip codes (due to increased travel expenses via Uber and Lyft costs):
15102, 15202, 15204, 15212, 15214, 15227, 15229, 15241. If your area is not in my service zone, you can send me a message to see if I am able to still get to you. Thank you!

I would love to cat sit for your fur babies because each has a unique and loving personality. They are VERY appreciative of the love we give.

I was blessed with and “employed” by 2 indoor rescues and 8+ ferals/neighborhood cats that my husband and I care for several times a day. We started caring for 3 outdoors, in 2017, but that number has grown to over 8. Our cameras have picked up other non cat critters visiting our feeding/water stations, as well...

I was blessed with and “employed” by 2 indoor rescues and 8+ ferals/neighborhood cats that my husband and I care for several times a day. We started caring for 3 outdoors, in 2017, but that number has grown to over 8. Our cameras have picked up other non cat critters visiting our feeding/water stations, as well. “Tennessee” (a beautiful longhair with tuxedo pattern) is seen on camera “accepting and monitoring” how the colony newcomers are treated and how they interact with the other cats. He is so thoughtful. We get to watch him go from dish to dish - almost as if he’s sampling the food to make sure to give the all-clear before the others dine. Occasionally, he has to discipline a young kitty (we named Blackie) because his youth gets the best of him. Blackie is full of energy. His body is long and lean. We think it’s because he can be seen throughout the day running from the shelters we built to the food dishes - back and forth. Don’t think he naps very long. Tennessee has taken him under his wing.

I also volunteered at 2 animal shelters.

I live in the South Hills section of Pittsburgh, but I am willing to travel to places that are accessible by public transportation, so that I can cat sit with your feline babies. The Transit App has an extremely useful feature that allows me to key in your address to get the most effective bus/trolley/incline/Uber/Lyft routes. Willing to seek alternate modes of transportation, with advance notice.

Thank you for considering and trusting me to be blessed by your feline family members.

Learn More About Dione C

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have completed several hundred cat reservations.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

To ensure that your kitties do not escape, I place my backpack down low, in front of your door, as I’m opening it. That way, I have a chance to react to any door dashing cats.

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite cat toy is the laser pointer. I find that it usually gets kitties, that don’t normally play, interested in running around. I carry one with me.

Dione was so kind and thorough in taking care of our kitties. This was our first time away since one of our cats was diagnosed with asthma, so we weren't sure how the inhaler treatments would go. Dione is some kind of cat whisperer! She was able to give him the inhaler each visit & videoed them for us too. Also lots of pictures and videos of food, play time, and updates on how they were doing. Thanks, Dione!!

Dione is always top notch. I have 2 serious, often grumpy babies and she is gentle and patient with them. They need daily medications and are getting older and when I return from traveling I always see them healthy and happy. She provides photos and videos upon request too. Excellent!

Dione made a furry new friend for life! Charlie loved her visits (especially the laser!) Dione was communicative and always sent updates. Dione made sure to schedule a meet and greet prior to our trip which made us feel so much better about having a sitter who we knew. Highly recommend Dione!!

I needed a cat sitter pronto as my previous sitter, a friend of mine, had a family emergency and I was leaving in less than a week! Thankfully, Dione squeezed me in and she did a wonderful job!!! I have a disabled cat whom requires asthma medication daily and he usually becomes a little sick whenever I leave for a trip without him. However, this is the first time he’s totally fine! Dione is a true fellow cat lover; she took care of them just like they were hers!

Dione is indeed excellent. Thoughtful, detail oriented and great at administering meds for cats. My two are very particular and not super social with strangers, and she was able to get them everything they need while I was away. I could not be happier with her pet sitting service and will hire her again!!

Dione is a superb cat sitter. She interacts with my 2 cats each visit, and updates me re messages and photos. She is extremely neat and all of the feeding dishes are cleaned and stacked when I return. She loves the cat and the love is reciprocated. could not ask for a better catsitter.

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.

Pittsburgh 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!
