Learn More About Marcus

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love having the opportunity to meet so many amazing cats! Having a chance to give pet parents peace of mind that their cats are being well cared for, while also getting the opportunity to visit, cuddle, and play with all these different kitties is like a dream come true!

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

Always let the sitter meet your cat before committing to a booking! Sometimes cats and people just don't click, and there's nothing wrong with that, but you also don't want to find that out after scheduling a sitter and heading out of town. Meet & greets also let the sitters get a sense of your cat's baseline and ask any questions they may have - a win-win scenario!

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am typically available during holidays. I don't tend to travel around those times, and plenty of years working in customer service industries means I'm accustomed to working when other businesses are closed.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I've always loved playing with the feather wands - especially if they also have bells. Sometimes the cats even seem to enjoy playing with me! 😸

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

Don't force any direct interaction, and always approach on their terms; checking their condition to make sure they're healthy and well can be done while still respecting their space. A shower & change of clothes before heading to their home can also make sure you don't add any stress from them smelling other pets on you.

Marcus is an excellent pet sitter! We asked him to take care of our two cats for a full week while we took a vacation, and Marcus delivered high quality care for the entire duration. In addition to the standard feeding and litter cleaning, Marcus took the time to play with our cats when time permitted, and went above and beyond with making sure that one of our cats (who hides from strangers) ate their food each day. He even swept up stray litter around the litter boxes on the last day and left us a little thank you note :3 I highly recommend Marcus as a cat sitter!

Marcus was very detailed and accommodating to meet our kitties at our home and took time to ask important questions prior to our departure. Marcus was very understanding towards our very shy kitty and very loving to our affectionate one. Highly recommended Marcus for long trips, I felt very at ease and got to spend the holidays catching up with my family. Thank you Marcus!!

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 you can find 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 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 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.
