Cat Sitting in Milwaukee, WI

Hi there, my name is Abby. I have been an occasional cat sitter for family, friends and neighbors since I was a teen (around 10 years) and am a total cat lover at heart. I have had experience cat sitting in households with 1 cat and more (even up to 20 cats)! I also have experience administering some medications. I have given oral medication and pills, topical ointments and flea preventatives, as well as eye and ear drops to cats. I can also administer insulin to kitties as well. I am willing to learn any other medication methods your cat may need while being in my care... Hi there, my name is Abby.

I am willing to learn any other medication methods your cat may need while being in my care.
I grew up with many cats at my parents' house throughout my youth and am now the proud owner of a cat of my own, a 7 year old fluffy tabby boy named Link. I have a BFA from the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design and am looking to work as a cat sitter to earn extra money outside my full time job and to help out pet parents. My job does sometimes have varying hours, so I will need to plan stays around that.
I am looking to serve Milwaukee neighborhoods and the surrounding area. I am willing to spend lots of time providing pets, playtime and cuddles, anything your fur baby requires! I also love to take pictures of kitties, so you will get plenty of fun updates. Please let me know if you have any questions!

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have been a cat sitter ever since I was around middle school age. I sat for neighbors and family for many years and then discovered Meowtel after I moved to Milwaukee full time! I’ve been a sitter on Meowtel for around 4 years now and I love it! I’ve cat sat for homes with one, two and more kitties and even used to sit for a kitty colony when I was younger. Needless to say, I’ve been a cat lover through and through my whole life! 🐈

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My cats name is Link. He is a 7 year old medium hair rescue from MADACC and he is a big boy! He is my best bud and follows me everywhere in the house because he’s a mamas boy. ❤️

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I’ve worked with my fair share of shy kitties. Patience is key. I usually will spend a lot of time low or on the floor so I’m not a tall, scary presence. It’s best to let them come to you in their time. It also helps if you have treats as a bribe! I’ve had lots of luck as a cat-whisperer of shy babies. Some kitties will still prefer to watch from afar and that’s okay! They will still be checked up on, fed, watered and monitored to make sure they’re A-Ok.

Abby was amazing as our kitty sitter. I'm a pretty anxious cat mom and get stressed about leaving them. Abby communicated with us regularly, sent lots of photos and videos, and our rather shy girl cat loved her. Abby even left us a sweet Christmas card and gifts for the kitties. We will definitely hire her again!

Abby was great! She was very enthusiastic about watching my 3 very shy cats. Unfortunately my cats didn’t share the same enthusiasm for being cat-sat, and they didn’t engage. Abby persisted, and at least my cats weren’t mad at me when I came home.

We are so lucky to have found Abby through Meowtel, and have booked with her multiple times in the past year. Her updates and photos are so fun while making us feel like our cat Bonnie is well taken care of while we’re away. We also really appreciate the extra effort of brushing out Bonnie’s long fur — she looks like she’s been at the spa the whole time we’ve been away!

Abby was so great with my four cats. They were not stressed out when I got home. When one of my cats kept breaking into the cabinets with the treat she found a good hiding spot. I got daily photos and updates. my plants got watered too. she was great.

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.

Milwaukee cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. 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!
