I'm Joanne | Cat Sitting in Woodbridge, VA
I have had cats since childhood. We lived on a farm and had six cats. I have mothered Asia (she lived for twenty-five years), Cosmo and Mindy. I have their ashes at home. Currently, I am mother to Kahli and Mahli, brother and sister. I rescued them from a feral life in 2020. My cats are sweet, social, playful and happy. Prior to retirement, I worked for the National Council on Aging (NCOA) as the Director of its Senior Environmental Employment (SEE) Program (a national employment program for person aged 55 or older) funded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Joanne's Reviews
Jennifer
Joanne is fantastic. She’s diligent and detailed and makes sure everything is taken care of - she is also a great communicator. You’ll have great peace of mind with her services. The kitties are always happy to see her as well!
Winnie
Joanne is a very reliable kitty sitter! Having her visit definitely makes a difference that I can notice in my cats’ behavior when I return from a trip; they aren’t upset about trips anymore. It also gives me peace of mind to know that a true cat lover is taking care of my babies!
Melissa
second time she has cat sat for me and again was absolutely amazing! this time I was in another country and could only look at the phone in the evenings and yet I slept easy knowing my babies were being well cared for.
Katie
Joanne has watched our cats for all of our trips in the last year, she is absolutely wonderful with them. All three have wildly different personalities and needs, and she makes sure each one is doted on and loved. The pictures and videos she sends over are also wonderful, you can tell the cats are happy and comfortable. We are so lucky to have found Joanne!

Frequently Asked Questions
Woodbridge cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. 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.
