I'm Stacy | Cat Sitting in Alexandria, VA

I'm the proud cat mom to Indyia Aryia and baby Maxwell Miguel. Indyia Aryia is a beautiful brown tabby cat and Maxwell is a white tabby cat; but all cats are adorable meowdals that I have yet to meet. I used to volunteer at the SPCA as an animal behaviorist and learned a lot about pet behavior. Because of my background with pet personalities, my approach to meeting your fur-baby is to give them space — and lots of it! I usually start with generally ignoring the kitty while I get important care information from their pawrent. This way they can observe me, and I learn about their quirks and boundaries before engaging. I take direction from your fur-by to build a relationship of trust and comfortability. I’ve watched cats in the DC metro area for five years as a way to help out friends and neighbors. I started Stacy's Kitty Care as part of my “small business em...

Learn More About Stacy

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

I’ve been watching cats for friends and neighbors since 2020. I’ve done a lot of work with shy babies, finicky eaters, runners and the best meowdals ever.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy chatting to and getting to know different cats. They have such interesting personalities. I’ve learned so much from having my own and working with cats. It’s a joy to help pawrents out and give them the level of care and comfort they’re used to having.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I adopted a tabby named Indyia Aryia, who is a 3-year old rescue. Maxwell Miguel is a kitten, and also adopted. He was born in late February 2024. The love their foster pawrents gave them, motivates me to pay it forward with cat-sitting (as I’m unable to foster).

This was the second time we have had Stacy watch or little guy and we couldn’t be happier with her as our sitter!! She goes above and beyond for our cat and she clearly loves her job based on the way she approaches all of her tasks with perfection. Thank you so much Stacy!! You’re the best!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.
