Learn More About Renee
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I have had cats throughout my whole life, and have been an independent owner as an adult with my own two cats for roughly 6 years. Throughout the last decade plus, I’ve been the go-to person for my friends and acquaintances who have needed cat care. They know how much I generally love cats, but also how much I care for their wellbeing. I am extremely reliable and they can trust that I will always show up for them.
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love meeting new cats and building relationships with repeat clients. They are each so unique, and require different approaches to earn their trust and keep them happy (the cats, and the humans I suppose😸). It makes me feel so honored as I get to know a cat and they slowly open up to me and show their true selves. It has been so rewarding!
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
When we begin working together, I will schedule a time to come meet you and your furry friends prior to the scheduled service if possible. This will allow me to familiarize your kitties with myself, and myself with their needs. I will get a sense of what you’re needing out of a sitter, and map out where all their essential supplies are located. Your peace of mind is important to me and I want you to feel confident and relaxed when you are away!

Renee is truly the best cat sitter I could have hoped for! From the moment I found her on MeowTel, I knew my girls would be in good hands — and she has exceeded every expectation. She is incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely loving with them. She doesn’t just stop in to feed them; she actually spends quality time playing with them and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. What means the most to me is how at ease my cats are with her — especially my somewhat shy girl, Evie. Evie doesn’t warm up to just anyone easily, but she feels completely safe with Renee, which says everything about her gentle and patient nature. Renee sends daily photos and thoughtful updates every single visit, letting me know how much the girls adore her and how they’re doing. Those updates give me such peace of mind when I’m away. I’m beyond grateful to have found someone so dependable, compassionate, and truly wonderful with my cats. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like her own, Renee is absolutely the one!

Renee was amazing for my family while we were in Europe for 2 weeks. Her communication, patience, and accommodation were impeccable and very appreciated. I loved getting daily updates, Renee really put the time and care in. My sweet old kitty really warmed up to Renee too so we plan on coming back.

Renee did a fantastic job! She was patient and quickly won over my shy kitty and was able to give him his topical medication. She was super communicative and willing to adjust plans in the face of a snowstorm and travel delays. She also took some very cute photos 😸 I would absolutely hire her again!

Renee did a great job taking care of my cat Cleo while I was away! I was a little apprehensive as it was a 9 day international trip, but Renee made sure communication was set up and I got daily messages and photos. Cleo (and my place) were in great shape whenI got home.

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.
Madison cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $23.00. 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!

Renee is kind, caring, hardworking, respectful, cat loving, and the best cat sitter I’ve ever had! She would keep me updated on how my 2 cats were doing. Was very respectful of my home, and make sure everything looked clean. She also was very good with playing and being there for feedings on time. She’s everything I wanted in a cat sitter plus more. She recently moved away and I’m heartbroken and would love to have her back but I’m glad she can be there for others.

Renee has watched my cats multiple times and always does an excellent job. She sends pictures of the cats while I’m away, plays with them and gives them lots of pets. I always come home to happy cats. I am at ease while I’m away knowing she’s going to take good care of them.
