Learn More About Darren
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I’ve taken care of multiple friends cats while they’ve been away, specifically in the city of Pittsburgh. Events exceed a dozen sits, and have been with a range of cat ages and profiles.
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I get to potentially meet new cats (homies), depending on their comfort levels and as a travel-busy cat owner help others that experience my same level of stress when away from my little crew.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Three total - Gladys, Helen, and Fiona. The former are sisters that were adopted two years ago. Fiona is thirteen years old, an old girl. They all get along relatively well, as we took a lot of effort in integrating the two generations together when we adopted the last couple ones.

Darren was very professional in communication. He was prompt and attentive to our cat care needs. He came and fulfilled his job as requested. He even swept up after our messy cats. Thanks for the quality care Darren!

Darren is a cat parent and understands that sometimes our kitties need some extra caresses to feel content. All went well with Darren’s two day visits with Callie. Will be calling on him in the future!

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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
