I'm Karen | Cat Sitting in Franklin, TN

All my life I have had cats and dogs and many other critters. My four girls brought everything home! (at one time we had 13 cats/kittens as two of the cats had kittens!). Now my children are all grown leaving me with my 3 adorable loving cats. The last one was a going away present when my last children (twins) went off to college. They wanted to make sure I had a new friend! After retiring to take care of family members, I started pet sitting around the area to have time for myself doing something I love. I have stayed at people's houses, given their fur babies medications and even hand making their food! My first client had 3 large Dogs and 8 cats! I was in heaven. My husband was diagnosed with terminal cancer and lost his battle a year ago. He so enjoyed going on my pet visits, sitting in the car watching me play with the fur babies. He was an animal whisperer. We even had horses. With his passing, My days are spent caring for my yard and doing hobbies. I am 59 years old and worked in many high stress jobs for over 30 years. Making my decision to retire early allowed me to focus on our garden, trying to finish my quilt I had started 20 years ago and expand ...

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

I have officially been cat sitting for over four years. Unofficially I have always had cats of my own all my life. My family has cats so we trade secret cat toys and treats which we have found they love. I am always careful with my clients to meet their feeding expectations for any special dietary requirements.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Making me excited to see my best friend. I talk to them as I am coming to the door and find them first off to give love and scritches! I love getting down on the floor and playing with them or if they are snugglers, getting comfortable and letting them feel loved.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

My very first job was taking care of 8 cats and 3 dogs! the cats ranged in age from 6 month old kittens to 18 years olds. Each one had unique personalities so I could come one, use a laser pointer with others, snuggle and play. I stayed over at the house so I could walk the dogs and make sure the older cats got the medications. I slept with the door open and have 5 babies in bed with me!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $29.00. 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.
