Learn More About Stefani
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I have had cats my entire life but just recently in the past 5 years have started taking care of my friends cats while they are on vacation or need a drop-in while they are working. I love meeting new cats, learning about them- especially snuggles + playtime!
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I enjoy cat sitting the most because every cat is different! I love learning their personalities + how they like to play + snuggle the most.
Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?
My favorite cat reservations are the ones where the cat is super happy to see me! I love snuggles! I am always willing to work with shy kitties (one of mine is nicknamed shy Max) so I totally understand how terrifying it can be having a new person coming into the home, especially when mom or dad are gone.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have 4 beautiful kitties! Allie is a 12 year old calico, she's the social butterfly of our house. She greets everyone at the door and needs maximum attention! Max is a 9 year old orange tabby, he's pretty shy and doesn't like to meet new people but loves belly rubs from his family. Beavis and Butthead are our kittens that are about 6 months in age! We LOVE the crazy kitten energy and love watching them grow and learn.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
My best advice for hiring a cat sitter is to do the free meet + greet! It's great to be able to watch the sitter interact with your cat + see how they are in your home. I believe that energy is everything + you'll know if you are the right fit from meeting in person or virtually.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
Before the meet + greet we usually chat through the Meowetel app which helps us both get acquainted + ask basic questions about the visits requested. During the meet + greet, I go over my specific check-list of questions to make sure that we are all on the same page + your cat with receive the best care possible while you are gone.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I always pay attention to the cats behavior and if it's a multi-cat household, their interactions and group dynamics. What do they like, what are they into, what gets their attention? I really pride myself in being attentive the cats I visit.
Are you usually available during holidays?
I am always available over Holidays and would love to give your kitties extra Holiday love while you visit family or loved ones.
What is your favorite cat toy?
I truly love all cat toys! (I usually let the cat pick, obviously!) I find that MY cats love all toys, including boxes + other non-traditional toys, which is adorable. I love cats that play fetch! It's the cutest thing.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I always make sure my demeanor is calm and quiet. I enter the space calmly and generally sit on the floor. I let the cat sniff me + come to me on its own time. I do this to show respect to their environment + let them know I know this is their home + their space. Every cat is different + I take time to learn how they like to be approached.

Stephanie was AMAZING with my very moody tortie!! She was also super comfortable and confident with administering my kitty’s inhaler, despite never having done it before. She was also phenomenally communicative, and went above and beyond to ensure our vacation was as stress-free as possible. I’ll definitely be calling her again!! As someone who’s kitty has driven off many cat sitters, I’m so glad to have found Stefani :)

Stefani did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats and our home! This was our first time hiring a cat sitter, and Stefani went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Even our very timid cat warmed up to her quickly! She sent very detailed updates and photos, which really helped us not worry on our trip. Our boys tend to make a bit of a mess - but everything was spotless when we got back, which was also a relief. I would 100% recommend Stefani!

So happy to have found Stefani thru her mom sharing what she does on Nextdoor. My ex-coworker moved away, and the person I hired last year didn't think I didn't notice what wasn't done. Stefani went above and beyond with offering to water a plant(hubby commented she took better care of it than he does😂) as the leaves perked up, bringing in packages that I couldn't put a delivery hold on. Our 2 cats still had food and water, and their 2 litter boxes were cleaned as nothing smelled upon our returning home😍 This was an issue with the person who checked in on our cats last year. Upon meeting her before our trip, I knew she truly cared from her telling me about her cats, and what she does for them. She also swept the kitty litter off of our floor which I'm not used to our cat sitter doing. My husband doesn't even do this! I would use Stefani to watch our cats for our next week+ vacation.

Stefani took wonderful care of my Zelda! I had her stop in for two separate 45 minute visits and she asked what specifically my cat liked best for playing and spent the whole time playing and snuggling with my girl and sent me lots of pictures. I would absolutely have her care for my cat again!

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!

Stefani was an awesome caretaker for my cats! I was gone for a week on a work trip and Stefani took care of my 2 cats while I was away. She sent pictures every day and was even able to interact with my shy cats! She is highly recommended.

So glad to have my Rosebud under Stefani’s care and guardianship while I was away! I could rest easy knowing she would be there during Rosie’s awake times during the night and early am rising. Since her cat sitting I scheduled a “play date” with Stefani while I had a busy day of errands! I want Rosie to know she has a community of cat-carers! And Stefani is one!!♥️☺️
