Learn More About Marissa

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

I have been animal sitting for about 8 years since I moved to the Milwaukee area. I have worked with all types of animals but my heart is with cats. The most rewarding part is getting a shy cat to trust you.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 3 cats of my own. Bert (12) and Theodore (5) and Anya (4 months). I love my cats dearly and would do anything for them!

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

I always let them come to me! I never want to force an interaction if they are not ready for it because that will only stress them out. I also make sure I have their favorite treats so they associate me with something positive.

Marissa was our cat sitter she was professional and caring and thorough. Our cat seemed relaxed when we returned home and at one point during the evening when we got home he was at the backdoor meowing I actually think we was looking for Marissa. Will definitely use her service again. Thanks Marissa

Marissa is a wonderfully reliable and caring cat sitter. She is attentive to details, follows instructions carefully, and truly loves animals. I have seen how patient and gentle she is, especially with cats who may be shy or anxious at first. Marissa goes above and beyond to make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for, and she communicates clearly to keep owners at ease. I trust her completely with my own cat and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats pets like family.

Frequently Asked Questions

Milwaukee cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
