I'm Kylie

Cat Sitting in Richmond, VA

Hi, I'm Kylie!

Cats have always had a special place in my heart. I've been caring for cats professionally for over 4 years and have been a cat owner myself for 7 years. In addition to pet sitting, I worked as a veterinary technician for over a year, giving me hands-on experience with cats of all ages, personalities, and medical needs.

I'm comfortable administering oral medications, insulin injections, and following special feeding schedules. I also work with local shelters and rescue organizations on TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) efforts and helping cats find loving homes whenever possible...
Hi, I'm Kylie!

Cats have always had a special place in my heart. I've been caring for cats professionally for over 4 years and have been a cat owner myself for 7 years. In addition to pet sitting, I worked as a veterinary technician for over a year, giving me hands-on experience with cats of all ages, personalities, and medical needs.

I'm comfortable administering oral medications, insulin injections, and following special feeding schedules. I also work with local shelters and rescue organizations on TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) efforts and helping cats find loving homes whenever possible.

During my visits, I focus on what your cat needs most. Some cats want lots of playtime, attention, and cuddles, while others prefer a quiet presence, treats, and someone to keep their routine consistent. I take the time to learn each cat's personality and adjust my care to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.

What sets me apart is my combination of professional animal care experience, medical knowledge, and genuine love for cats. I understand that every cat is different, from confident social butterflies to shy little voids hiding under the bed. My goal is always to earn their trust, provide exceptional care, and give you peace of mind knowing your cat is in caring and capable hands.

I look forward to meeting you and your feline family!

Learn More About Kylie

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I like to start with a meet and greet to learn about your cat's routine, personality, and any special care needs. During visits, I follow their normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, litter box cleaning, medications, playtime, and cuddles (if they're interested!). I also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well cared for.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes! I am typically available during most holidays, including major holiday weekends. Since holiday bookings tend to fill up quickly, I recommend reaching out as early as possible to reserve your dates.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I have a lot of patience with timid and anxious cats because my own cat is very shy. I understand that trust takes time, so I never force interactions. Instead, I let cats approach me at their own pace while maintaining their normal routine and creating a calm, low-stress environment. Whether that means sitting quietly nearby, offering treats, or simply giving them space, I adjust my approach to what makes each cat feel most comfortable and secure. I have one cat I sit for, that it took almost 2 years for me to pet her and come out to eat while im there. Now she gives me nose bops and purrs when I come over.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

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.

Richmond cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $31.00. 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 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!
