I have loved cats my whole life and have had 5 or more rescue kitties for many years. I had a pet sitting business for 20+ years but now just care for cats. I enjoy early morning visits through 5 pm. I take customers south of IH20 east, parts of southwest Arlington and Mansfield areas. I am very particular about my own cats so your cats will be loved and cared for just like you want. Most of the cats I care for warm up to me quickly. They can sense that I am a total cat person. I can handle medications and special diets. I have had a diabetic cat before and have cared for cats with kidney issues, urinary issues and hyperthyroidism. I look forward to meeting you and your cats.

Learn More About Jan

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I have always loved cats so cat sitting is perfect for me. I enjoy the different personalities of each cat and love to make them happy.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

My favorite cat sitting reservations are those where the cats are friendly and eager to see me. I enjoy playing with them and petting them.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

At the present time I have 6 indoor kitties. They are Domino, Chester, Olive, Lodi, Martini and Opal. I also feed and care for 1 TNR cat named Salmon. I hopefully will bring him to be an inside only cat in the near future.

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

When hiring a sitter make sure you are comfortable with them at the meet and greet. Give them plenty of details about the care of your cat/cats too.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I have two favorite cat toys that I use. One is a felt catnip fish toy that I make myself and give to customers. The other is various wand type toys that most cats love. You just have to find the right one for them. Some cats like feathers and others mice or balls.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

If a cat is very shy I just talk to them and get near them offering my finger "nose" for them to sniff. Others that don't want to be close I just speak softly and maybe entice then with treats or toys.

Jan is amazing with our sometimes shy kitties. And she was able to give our squirmy Biscuit his transdermal medication while we were gone. She also sent great photos and videos of our two cats for every visit. She is the best!

Jan is great! She’s very experienced, detailed and perceptive. She played with one of my babies at every visit and was very patient with the other who’s pretty shy. Will schedule again!

We would highly recommend Jan for cats that need extra attention because Jan is a pro at the details! Our cat has a medical condition that Jan always keeps a close eye on and during our most recent reservation she was able to warn us when something wasn’t right, leading to us scheduling a vet visit as soon we arrived home. Jan’s attention to detail and amazing communication helped to prevent a bad situation for our cat and we are so grateful!

We asked Jan to cat sit for a mother cat and small kittens we’re fostering, and she did an incredible job!! Jan is obviously a cat expert and adores cats - she also has experience with feral cats/TNR and was great with our unique situation. She responded quickly and gave great updates and photos, and I felt so much better knowing our kitties were cared for while we were out of town. Would highly recommend!

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.

Arlington cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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!
