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

I have experience cat sitting my entire life (30years). Usually it’s by word of mouth. I’ve cat sat for friends, family, and neighbors and experience includes general check in’s, feeding and litterbox cleaning, bottle feeding kittens and assisting them to relieve themselves (VERY YOUNG), medication administration by pill, powder, insulin shots, or ear drops, I clip cat’s nails, can administer ointment or tick/flea prevention, and love playing with cats, meowing with them, and cuddling (if they allow it).

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy cat sitting because I get to meet adorable kitties in the area, show them love, and additionally I get to offer clients one less thing to worry about when they’re gone for a work trip, vacation, or other. Life is already SO STRESSFUL, and I know what it’s like to feel guilty leaving my cats (Jack & Juniper) behind while I travel because they are deeply attached to me and me alone. Knowing that your cats are safe and happy is a beautiful thing, and I love providing that stress relief to others as they have done for me.

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

Transparency is the best policy in my opinion. I communicate with the client to let them know exactly when I’m headed to the house, when I arrive/get physically inside the home, and immediately let the client know their cat is safe and sound. If permitted, I will send photos/videos of the fur baby as documented proof as well as to calm the owner’s nerves. I stay for as long as is agreed upon, and notify the owner when I leave and lock the door. I do not go into any private rooms or open any doors other than for the food, meds, toys, litterbox/bathroom/cleaning supplies as needed. Generally, it’s nice to have these items in the open in the kitchen so I don’t have to go searching, but everyone is different. I’m happy to include additional safety & security measures in case by case basis.

Jamie was quick to respond and communicated clearly. She gave updates during the visit and even brought my packages inside for me! My cat often hides when people come into my home, but Jamie must put off safe and friendly vibes because kitty came right out to greet her.

Jamie is extremely caring and thoughtful and she loves cats. She always made sure my cats were taken care of and spent time with them, not because she is asked to, but because she cares and wants to. She's the best!

Jamie is a wonderful cat sitter!! My cat, Bebe, loves her and I feel so much better when I leave town knowing that Bebe is taken care of. I really appreciate the pictures and videos too. It makes me feel like I’m not too far away.

Frequently Asked Questions

Irving cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $29.00. 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.
