Learn More About Michele
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I have been cat sitting for neighbors and friends for many years and have been with Meowtel since 2025. I know how important it is to have someone responsible that you can trust caring for your cats while you’re away. I would truly love the opportunity to provide you with safe and loving care for your cats.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
We have four cats, and each one has a distinct personality. Katie is a lovable loner with a raspy meow who enjoys snuggling, but only on her time. If she were human, she would be a quiet, persnickety little lady. Alfred is a handsome cat with big blue eyes and regal charm. He is confident, a little arrogant, and completely won over by treats and head scratches. Our third cat, Percy, earned his name because he spends about 98 percent of his day purring. If he were human, he would be the friendly guy next door whom everyone loves. Finally, we have Louise, our cat-distribution kitty. She was found as a lost kitten on the side of the road and was bottle-fed and nursed back to health. She is spirited and loves to play fetch. If she were human, Louise would be a spunky, slightly rebellious teenager.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I would like to meet you and your cat before you leave to make sure you feel comfortable with me. I would follow your instructions to take the best care of your cat while you are away. I would also communicate with you and send pictures and videos so you feel confident your cat is well taken care of. I can also help with other vacation related tasks like watering plants, getting the mail, or taking out the garbage.

Michele is so kind and caring! She did a lovely job taking care of my two little furbabies. Her communication was above and beyond any previous pet sitters I’ve had. She sent so many lovely photos and kept me updated throughout our trip.

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.
Grafton cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!

Michele is a cat lover to the fullest extent. You won’t go wrong having Michelle help take care of your pets. She will prioritize them and their needs above all else. She will keep you informed of how your babies are doing while you are away and most of all she will make sure they get a cuddle and hug and belly scrub whenever they desire. She is highly trustworthy and reliable.
