Cat Sitting in Leesburg, VA

I’m a lifelong animal lover and permitted wildlife rehabilitator with two rescue cats. I’m also a former emergency medical technician and firefighter with veterinary technician training. I have specialized training in caring for cats with special needs including medical prescriptions and mobility assistance. Fear Free (R) certified.
I understand that every cat has a unique personality and deserves patience, affection, and attentive care. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to a familiar routine, I provide reliable, loving care while you're away. I take pride in creating a calm, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. You can travel with confidence knowing your cherished companion is safe, comfortable, and receiving the same kindness and attention I would give my own beloved cats.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have two rescue cats, Merlin and Blue. Merlin is the astrophysicist and Blue is the astronaut! Merlin is 11 and Blue is 10.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
When looking for a sitter consider the sitter’s availability to handle unexpected situations. From thunderstorms to medical emergencies sitters need to be able to react appropriately under pressure.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
As a retired emergency medical technician I always keep my medical bag in the car and keep watch that nothing in your home could become a danger to your cat.

Leesburg cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.
Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a 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 Meet & Greet!
