I'm Marilyn | Cat Sitting in Madison, WI
Scientist by trade, cat lover at heart. Currently have a 6 year old black cat I got as a ten week old kitten. My previous cat I got as a preteen and he lived to be 17 years old. I’ve also had two large dogs in my life, one of whom passed away at the beginning of September just shy of his 16th birthday. I began cat sitting on Meowtel in December 2022.

Marilyn's Reviews
Jennifer
Marilyn - Did a great job and was patient with me leaving my cat with her for the first time. She adapted to some very specific cat requests (my cat likes to approach you and is specific about how she likes to be touched). All instructions followed.
Kaitlyn
Marilyn was very responsive and took lots of photos for me! I felt much better while away knowing that my cat had someone dependable checking in on him :)

Frequently Asked Questions
Madison cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $23.00. 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.
