I'm Jared | Cat Sitting in Knoxville, TN
I have had a total of 5 cats in my care for well over a decade of my life and nothing brings me more joy than the feeling of knowing their needs, no matter how fickle, are met. Understanding an animal’s needs goes beyond their ability to simply communicate them to us. Instead, it requires a deeper understanding of their behavioral cues and mannerisms to determine when an animal is doing well or when it is lacking in care. To that end cats, as wonderful as they are, are subtle and elusive creatures. I take a large amount of pride in my ability to go the extra mile to make sure that their individual needs are observed and acted upon. In my personal and professional life, I have committed my energies towards the preservation of all living things. My background in the natural sciences has led me down the path of environmental law because my deepest desire is to make sure those who cannot preserve their interests are heard a...

Jared's Reviews
Kathryn
Jared is amazing! he took such good care, came over at consistent times, and provided excellent, detailed updates. No notes, will absolutely ask him to cat sit again.
Dianne
Jared did an excellent job of caring for our fur babies. My daughter had surgery out of state so we did not need to be worrying about their care while we were gone. He was dependable and did everything we asked.
Tom
Jared is super thorough and communicative, would highly recommend!
Dianne
Jared was great. He was very thorough, very detailed oriented and reliable. We were happy that we didn't have to worry about our furr babies.
Judy
I was very anxious about leaving my cat, who is 21 years old and deaf. She had a bad experience boarding a few years ago, so I thought I would try a pet sitter. I was so pleased with the care by Jared. He is a very responsible young man who is courteous, professional and thorough. His questions were appropriate and focused on Molly. I immediately felt at ease when I saw her interact with him. I received daily feedback and this helped me so much. I can't recommend him highly enough! Thank you so very much!!!

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Knoxville cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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.
