Learn More About Cj

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What I enjoy most about cat sitting is the opportunity to bond with each unique feline personality. Every cat has its own quirks, preferences, and ways of showing affection, and I find it incredibly rewarding to build trust and connection with each one.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Ensuring the safety and security of the cats and the home while cat sitting is my top priority. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, playtime, and litter box cleaning, and regularly check on the cats to monitor their health and behavior. I secure all doors and windows to prevent escapes and ensure the living space is free of hazards. With training in cat first aid and emergency procedures, including my own cat first aid kit, I’m prepared for any situation. I follow precise instructions for medication and special needs. I respect the homeowner’s privacy by keeping keys and access codes safe, and I adhere to any specific security protocols. Regular updates and photos keep the owners informed and reassured. By combining my experience, training, and attention to detail, I ensure a safe environment for the cats and protect the home while you’re away.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am usually available during holidays. I understand that holidays are a popular time for travel, and it’s important for pet owners to know their cats are well taken care of while they’re away. I make it a priority to be available during these times to provide reliable and consistent care for your feline companions, ensuring they are comfortable and happy even when you can’t be there.

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite cat toy is any wand toy! It's not just a fun way to engage cats; it also encourages exercise and mental stimulation. The interactive nature of wand toys allows me to build a strong bond with cats by engaging them in playful activities that mimic their natural hunting instincts. It's rewarding to see cats pounce, chase, and interact enthusiastically during playtime with a wand toy, making it a favorite for both me and the cats I care for.

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

When handling timid or anxious cats, I prioritize creating a calm and safe environment. I allow them to approach me at their own pace, avoiding sudden movements and loud noises. I gradually build trust through gentle interactions, starting with sitting nearby and using soothing tones. A consistent routine for feeding and care provides reassurance. Using positive reinforcement encourages confidence and helps them associate me with positive experiences. By being patient and attentive to their needs, I help timid or anxious cats feel more comfortable and gradually build trust.

CJ has been cat sitting for me for almost a month, and I truly could not have asked for a better experience. He has been incredibly reliable, communicative, and thoughtful from day one. He made sure every single item on my care list was completed, and if he ever had a question, he reached out immediately. His communication was consistent and reassuring, which made being away so much easier. What really stood out to me was how much he genuinely cared about my cats. When one of them was hiding for several days, CJ was understandably concerned and kept me informed, wanting to make sure everything was okay until my cat warmed up to him. That level of attentiveness and empathy is rare and meant a lot to me. He was also incredibly patient, flexible, and available at a moment’s notice, always willing to go above and beyond. I felt completely confident that my cats were safe, cared for, and loved while I was away. I honestly hesitate to write this review because I don’t want him to get so busy that he’s never available for us again — but he absolutely deserves the highest recommendation. I would trust CJ again without hesitation.

Cj did a great job caring for my cat Naamie. She rarely comes out for anyone but she responded and gained confidence with Cj. He sent vids, and pictures of her daily and spent time with her. Highly recommended!

CJ is dependable and detail oriented. He followed our instructions perfectly and did a great job of keeping us updated. He was very sweet to our Mattie and took extra time to get to know her. We were worried how she would respond to being alone without her brother and we know CJ was a big part of it going smoothly. He will be our go to sitter in the future - Can’t recommend enough.

When we appointed Cj to help us look out after Nyx we were just expecting someone to come for a few minutes, give him food, clean his litter and out of the house. But since day one, Cj took his time in every visit, not only doing what we asked him to do, but also making sure Nyx trusted him and they would become friends. And they did! Cj went far and beyond for our cats well being, with detailed messages and beautiful pictures. On any future occasion, Cj will be our first option, we trust him completely.

CJ is very detail-oriented and asked lots of questions to make sure he knew everything about our cats’ care. He sent us many pictures and videos, and our kitties clearly enjoyed his company. 10/10 recommend CJ for your booking!

Frequently Asked Questions

Dallas cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
