I have been a pet owner, sitter, and healthcare professional for a combined total of 45 years. I am meticulous, detail-oriented and reliable - all with a huge heart and a genuine love for animals. My policy is to follow your lead and tend to your pet as you would. My experience with animals and my direct medical experience make me uniquely suited to foresee and avoid potential issues, all while showering your kitty with the affection it needs while you’re away. You will never wonder if your sweet pet is okay while he or she is under my care; I will keep you updated as often as you would like. For me, every sit is an opportunity to meet amazing people and pets, knowing that I’ve assuaged some anxiety (of both owners and their furry friends) along the way!

Learn More About Susan

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

It’s hard to pin down what I enjoy most because each cat brings me joy for unique reasons. I suppose it’s the challenge that cats often present; it’s never a given that they will immediately love you. My greatest satisfaction is the moment that a shy cat comes out of its shell and displays trust in me for the first time. That moment truly makes my heart melt!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Customers should be on the lookout for the qualities that make the sitter/owner relationship go smoothly. Responsiveness, great communication skills, flexibility, and a certain calm competence are surefire signs that your sitter will be a good fit for you and a safe caretaker for your pet.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I know that many sitting situations involve holidays and weekends, and as such, I’m always available during these busy times. Pet ownership is a 24/7 proposition, so I’m happy to be there when you can’t be.

Susan is hands down the best cat sitter I’ve ever had! She’s gone above and beyond to care for my sweet boy and I can tell she takes the time to understand his preferences and personality quirks - she really cares about him! Susan has been meticulous with his medications, feeding and cleaning, she’s always on-time, she plays with him and gives him the space or love he needs, and she provides me outstanding updates and photos when she’s caring for my boy. I’m so glad I found Susan!

Susan has been my cat sitter for 5 years and I've never had a reason to use anyone else. She takes care of my cats like they're hers and she has never let me down. I'm happy to have found her because I travel all the time for work and I would be stressed all the time leaving my kitties with anyone else. Sometimes I think they love her more than they love me! LOL! Susan is just the best and my cats agree.

If you're looking for someone who's experienced, friendly, and an all around great sitter, look no further. Susan has worked for me for years and I trust her implicitly with my cats. She never fails to communicate well and make sure my animals are well cared for. I actually don't know what I would do without her because I rely on her that much! 10/10 can recommend Susan!

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.

Cranston 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!
