I'm Allison | Cat Sitting in Milwaukee, WI

Hello all! My name is Allison! Certified cat lady here. LGBT friendly! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ I live in Greenfield, WI. I am a mom to a 16 year old senior kitty. What I love about animals, and especially cats, is that they have their own remarkable personalities. For instance, my 15 year old tabby is distinguished and proper, and isnt shy in voicing her opinion - but has a sweet affectionate side not all may predict. In my free time, I like to go swimming, travel, try new restaurants around town, and go to all the Milwaukee festivals I can - this town is known for its summer festivals! I'm vaccinated against COVID-19, and am happy to discuss any practices that would make you feel at ease during visits (e.g. masking) :) My goal as your cat sitter is to give you peace of mind as you're away. Whether you're traveling for fun or at...

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Peace of mind & reliability are everything in a cat sitter. They are taking care of your fur babies while you are away. The sitter should set your mind at ease while you are away from home. Communication is a key factor in successful reservations, both from the sitter & from the client. Discussing any preferences and such up front makes things smoother for everyone, including the kitties. Keep the flow of communication going throughout the visit to fine tune anything you need to feel more comfortable. It doesn't have to be extreme - quality over quantity! - but it all goes a long way! :)

What is your favorite cat toy?

I love cat wands. I like when the kitties get super excited to try and "catch" the wand. It makes for high quality interaction!

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

I know every cat moves at their own pace when they warm up to someone new! I've been a cat parent to a shy kitty myself. I know that they need space and comfort to feel safe enough for interaction. For shyer cats, I focus on establishing a routine for my visits - like letting them hear me come in, doing a mellow task out of sight first, etc. I will casually speak to them, so they get used to hearing my voice, but won't overdo it if they show signs of stress. I always try to approach them (and want to get cute photos to send you anyway!), but let them set the pace for distance, touch, etc.

Allison is my go-to gal to check on Jolene while I am travelling. Her updates are amazing and there is no doubt my girl Jo is in good hands while I'm away. Jolene doesn't love everyone but she allows Allison to pet her a little so that says a lot.

This was the third time Allison cared for my shy kitty, and now my cat has warmed up to her. I'm pretty amazed at that! Allison truly has a way with shy kitties!

Allison was awesome! She took great care of our cats, including our diabetic one who needs insulin twice a day. She provided regular and timely updates on the cats and was responsive and super thoughtful. We will definitely hire her again the next time we're out of town!

Allison cared for my kitty recently while I was on vacation for a week. Her updates were prompt and full of details so I didn’t worry about how my cat was doing while I was away. My shy kitty has really warmed up to Allison, which is amazing.

Allison was so easy to work with and did an awesome job with our cats (twice). The whole family loved getting her very thorough updates and photos. Highly recommend!

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Milwaukee cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $25.00. 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.
