Learn More About Nicole
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
There's something rewarding about ensuring a cat feels safe and comfortable in their own home while their owners are away. I take pride in making their experience pleasant and keeping in mind I’m helping a fellow pet owner feel at ease during their time away. I enjoy being a reliable support system -because it’s what I as a cat owner would want too!
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
When working with a new cat parent my main goal is to make sure I have all the information I need to make our cat sitting experience a positive one! First, its important for me to understand what an owner’s expectations are for the visit. Second, is making sure I have all the information I need to ensure the cat in my care is well attended. Last but not least is addressing any additional concerns an owner may have so they feel comfortable with the whole experience. With those priorities in mind, I’ve had great success with working with cat parent clients.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I treat both cats and your home with great care and responsibility. Its important for me to ensure that the safety and well being of your animal is my top priority. Doors and windows are secured during each visit, food and water refreshed, and litter attended to. I will follow any specific instructions the owner may have regarding security to ensure everything is safe and sound.
Are you usually available during holidays?
I am available most holidays! Please consider booking with me for your long vacations or quick weekend trips knowing that I’ll be around.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I approach timid or anxious cats with lots of patience and sensitivity. I let them set the pace and never force an interaction. Cats are creatures of habit, so when meeting a stranger its important to give them space to observe and make their own conclusion that I am there to care for them. Over time these shy cats usually start to open up a little bit more and I do my best to build a relationship at their comfort level.

Nicole was so friendly and had such a calm energy around my cats for the pre-booking home visit, I had a feeling they were in great hands. By the third day of my trip, I forgot to check my phone for updates because I wasn't worried anymore. She was a natural pro at handling my cat's inhaler, too!

Nicole is very nice and super accommodating! Giving a stranger access to your home and your pets can be stressful but after meeting her I had zero reservations. She is clearly knowledgeable about cats and was well loved by even my more nervous cat. I will certainly be reaching out to her again!

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.
Woodbridge cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $33.00. 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!

Nicole is truly a dream cat sitter. As a cat parent to three cats of her own, she understands how much our pets mean to us and treats every cat she cares for with that same love and attention. She’s incredibly organized, reliable, and respectful of others’ homes, always going the extra mile to make sure everything is just right. Nicole is also one of the kindest and most thoughtful people I know- sweet, calm, and deeply attentive to the needs of both pets and their people. Any cat would be lucky to have her, and any cat parent can rest easy knowing their pet is in such capable and caring hands.
