Learn More About Jacqueline

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

I have been professionally pet sitting for over 10 years now, but have had cats all my life. In that time I have gained a wealth of knowledge of caring for lots of different cats & kittens. I specialize in senior cats, cats with medical needs. I the patience to win over the most difficult or shy cats.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to know all the different characters. I also love earning the trust of the shy cats, that’s very rewarding.

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

My advice to a customer looking for a sitter, is to do your homework. Read their reviews, don’t go on price alone. Meet the sitter and ask all the questions you need, to ensure you are getting the best care. Listen to the sitter, see want kind of questions they are asking you. Make sure they are asking you questions. Make sure you share vet and emergency contact information with them, a good one will ask all those questions hopefully.

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

First, I start with entering the home safely, making sure that the cat cannot escape through the doorway. Safety and security are at the top of my list. Once I’ve entered the home and make sure that everyone is well, proceed to care for the cats, feed them, etc. I respectfully move around the home trying to limit my footprint where I can. If I’m just doing a check-in, when my time is up I make sure everybody is safe fed in the house is left the way I found it. I make sure the alarm is set in the door is locked securely before I leave. If I’m housesitting for the clients, I respectfully move around the house and limit my footprint again and I only go where I need to go to be able to take care of the cats

We had another great experience with Jacqui. We were very nervous to be taking a long trip away from our two cats, but she really helped to put our minds at ease. Jacqui updated us at every visit with photos and any concerns, and was very responsive and quick to help administer probiotics when an issue came up. We came home to two very healthy and happy cats and would gladly book her again.

Jacqui has been excellent to work with. She is very proactive and prepared, and she truly cares for the cats. Her open communication is really appreciated, especially when she ran into some issues entering our home and when one of our cats had an accident. We were able to have complete peace of mind on our trip due to Jacqui’s experience and care. We came back to happy and healthy cats, and we are very glad to book her again!

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.

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!
