Learn More About Colin

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

I am not hesitant to tell you I am new to the cat sitting game! Despite being new to being paid to watch cats, I am very experienced in loving and caring for cats of my own, and am extremely passionate about cats in general. I hope my newness to the sitting scene does not drive you away, as I am eager to make sure you and your kitty both have the most positive experience possible while you are away.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I get so much enjoyment of just being in the proximity of a cat. At home, I literally throw on livestreams of cat shelters on my tv and sit there watching more than I watch actual tv shows 😹. I love building relationships with cats (and just animals in general) and finding out how to mutually become better friends. As I’m sure you know, the beginning stage of friendship with a new cat is often a skeptical one on their end, and I take passion in the ability to ease this skepticism and gain their trust and make them feel safe and loved. I also enjoy caring for them and making sure they have what they need outside of love. Playing is probably my favorite part of this! I have a pretty good grip on how to get their wheels turning with a toy 😼

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I am eager to communicate deeply with cat parents and make sure I am completely understanding of their preferences and any kind of unique treatments or noteworthy information. Just as I want your kitty to feel safe, secure, and trusting with me, I value that cat parents themselves feel the same! I am open to texting, calling, FaceTiming, or meeting in person prior to make sure we are all on the same page and happy!

Colin was great every step of the way. He visited our home days before his first scheduled visit to meet us and our cat, and to make sure her understood everything needed to meet her needs. He sent us informative updates with pictures for every visit, and quickly won over our cat with kindness, toys and treats. We could also tell things went really well because our cat was not stressed when we returned home after nearly six days away.

Colin was exceptional! My two cats Maple&Leo warmed up to him immediately, even though Maple is usually a lot more hesitant and reserved around strangers. She even gave him him head bumps and hugs at the M&G. Colin’s calm demeanor and clear ease with new cats made me confident in his ability to care holistically for our cats. Even though Colin only visited once, he went above and beyond and cleaned both cat’s bowls and was thorough in leaving things as he found them. Colin clearly enjoyed bonding with our cats and gave them lots of attention while we were away. I highly recommend Colin.

Colin is an attentive and reliable cat sitter who truly cares about the well-being of the animals he works with. He approaches every situation thoughtfully, stays calm under pressure, and makes sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, secure, and loved. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and compassionate caregiver - any cat would be lucky to have him!

Frequently Asked Questions

Franklin cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

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.
