A Cat-Tastic Sitter In Charleston

I'm Caroline

Cat Sitting in Charleston, SC

Hi, I’m Caroline and thank you for checking out my profile! I’ve never met a cat I didn’t like, so I’m definitely a cat person. I’ve “owned” cats for over 20 years and started volunteering in cat rescue about 10 years ago. I’ve fostered dozens of kittens and have been privileged to facilitate happy homes for them. I now have my own informal cat rescue organization that specializes in T-N-R and feral cat colony management.

I have six rescue cats at home, ranging in age from 11 years old to 2 years old. In order of age: Huck, Edgar, Benjamin, Colby, Evie, and Ernestine (Ernie). My husband now wishes that I made a vow to love, honor, and not obtain more than three cats...

I have six rescue cats at home, ranging in age from 11 years old to 2 years old. In order of age: Huck, Edgar, Benjamin, Colby, Evie, and Ernestine (Ernie). My husband now wishes that I made a vow to love, honor, and not obtain more than three cats. 🤣Seriously though, I’m a devoted cat mom and I would do anything for my “kids”.

I work as an architectural historian, mostly from home, so I have a flexible schedule. When I’m not working, I’m listening to audiobooks. Historical fiction and biographies are my favorite genres. I also love to travel, especially to the United Kingdom and Europe.

I’m 100% comfortable with all types of cats, even hissy ones. I have two special needs cats at home, so giving medication has become a specialty. I have experience in giving oral medication, eye and ear drops, and topical ointments. I’ve also nursed two of my beloved former cats (RIP Amelia and Watson) through Kidney Failure, so I can give Sub-Q fluids. I’ve not given injections yet, but am confident that I can learn.

In short, you can absolutely trust me to care for your cats as I would my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry children.

Caroline went above and beyond for my kitty & me. She was able to add a visit even though she was traveling herself. Our third cat-sit from Caroline and we will certainly seek her services in the future.

Caroline was super. She was there when I really needed, someone special for my two kitty-cats. I was unexpectant in the hospital and needed consistent help. Caroline sent me updates and photos, she cared for the kitties, and it was just what Phoebe, Charlotte and I all three needed.

This was my first time using Meowtel and Caroline has set the bar high!! We went out of town for a long weekend and had Caroline drop by in the evenings to check on the cats and feed them dinner. She was fantastic with both of my cats, a senior and an adolescent! She gave detailed reports and included photos every evening. We’re going out of town in February and will be booking Caroline again!!

Caroline is the best! Our cat needs medicine twice a day to keep him from have seizures and whenever we are away it is always an added stress having to wonder if he is getting his medication on time. We never have to worry even for a minute with Caroline! She sends updates with pictures and is always quick to respond. Definitely goes above and beyond and I can’t be more thankful for her and how it allows us to relax when we’re away from our little Norm.

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.

Charleston cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $23.00. 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!
