I'm Marisa | Cat Sitting in Ashburn, VA

Hello, it's a pleasure to virtually meet you. Let me share a bit about myself. I've been caring for animals for about 20 years, starting with dog walks and cat sitting. I spent about 2 years working as a vet tech assistant in a cat-specific vet clinic. This experience has made me better at giving medications and fluids and recognizing when a cat isn't feeling their best. I am also certified in Cat & Dog First Aid. Currently, I work as a project manager for a construction company in Maryland. One of my favorite daily activities is spotting cats in apartment or condo windows. I have two wonderful cats, Chance and Harley, although they can be naughty abo...

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

I've had about 20 years experience with pet care/cat care, with a lot of repeat clients. I've had a few cat care clients for over 8 years. I also have a few years experience working in a vet clinic that specializes in cat care.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I get to interact with different cats with different personalities. It's hard to have a bad day when you get to interact with a cat. Even just sitting there talking to the kitty is great.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

My favorite reservation was when I was able to gain the trust of two semi-feral cats. I had been taking care of them for years, always from a distance. And they eventually let me scratch their heads and play with them. It was probably the best feeling in the world.

Marisa did a great job with my kitty, Simba. Lots of photos and texts to let me know how things were going while I was away. I will work with Marisa again in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ashburn cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. 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.
