I'm John | Cat Sitting in Dallas, TX

Hello all! ๐Ÿ˜บ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜บ We always had cats when I was growing up, and so my love of cats comes quite naturally. I love when cats want to cuddle and be pet or be playful! I am used to having both outgoing and shy cats. I am very patient, and so if your cat is shy, requires special attention, or anything else, this is no problem! I am also very detail-oriented, so Iโ€™ll be sure to take notes and follow each and every instruction. My cat-sitting routine involves setting a timer for the duration of the visit, playing music, and thoroughly going through your cats' care routine. I really enjoy when there is extra time to play with the cats or pet them! I enjoy cat sitting for the experience of meeting new cats! I enjoy learning what each owner does to care for their cats, and I adapt my routine to uniquely care for each pet. My current cats are named Richard Simmons. I adopted them over three years ago from the SPCA in Dallas. Richard was first, but he hid for a few months. So I knew he needed a brother and adopted Simmons. (Richard's name w...

Learn More About John

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

I've now been with Meowtel for over one year. I currently have had double-digit clients with over a 60% repeat client base.

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

I am flexible with the meet and greet to accommodate your schedule. I bring a notebook with a checklist of questions, take lots of notes, and make sure to understand everything about how you want your cat to be cared for. I like taking photos to send to you and look out for photo opportunities, and I send thorough updates about your cat as well as the progress of our relationship.

What is your favorite cat toy?

Wands can be fun, watching the cats chase them, and sometimes interpretive dancing with them.

John did a great job with our two kitties that have to be separated. John provides timely responses and updates, and overall really helped ease our fears about leaving our girls for an extended period of time. We plan to use him again for our next trip!

Frequently Asked Questions

Dallas cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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.
