Why Choose MeowSit Chicago
Cat care by neighbors who love cats. Since 2015, MeowSit has been helping Chicago cat parents travel with peace of mind. We're a small, local, family-run business, and cats are all we do.
How MeowSit Works
1. Fill Out Our Client Intake Form
Tell us about your cat (or cats!), your home, and your care preferences. Feeding routines, quirks, favorite hiding spots, medications, and where the treats live. The more we know, the better we can care for them.
2. Schedule a Free Consultation
We'll meet you and your cat at your home to go over everything in person. It's a chance for your cat to meet their sitter, for us to learn the routine, and for you to ask any questions.
3. Book Your Dates and Relax
Once you're set up, book your visits through our online system. During each visit, you'll receive messages, photo updates, and GPS check-in details, so you always know when your sitter arrived and how your cat is doing.
Your Cat Stays Home, Where They're Happiest
Cats are creatures of habit. Boarding means new smells, strange sounds, and a lot of stress. With MeowSit, your cat stays in their own space, with their own routine, favorite sunny spot, and familiar hiding places. We come to them.
Sitters Who Live in Your Neighborhood
We serve Chicago's northeast side, and our sitters live in and know the neighborhoods we cover. That means reliable visits, familiar faces, and someone close by if anything comes up while you're away.
Bonded, Insured, and Background Checked
Inviting someone into your home takes trust. MeowSit is fully bonded and insured, and every sitter completes a background check before caring for your cat. You can travel knowing your home and your feline family are in good hands.
Everything Your Cat Needs, Every Visit
Each visit includes:
Feeding and fresh water
Litter box scooping
Medication, if needed
Playtime and enrichment
Accident clean-up
Mail and package pickup, so nothing sits outside or in your lobby
Photo updates, so you can see how your cat is doing
Photo Updates Every Visit
Whether your cat is lounging in a sunbeam, enjoying dinner, or judging us from the windowsill, you'll get a photo after every visit. Peace of mind, delivered straight to your phone.
Shy Cats Welcome
Not every cat greets you at the door, and that's okay. Our sitters let shy cats set the pace. We keep everything fresh and clean, make sure they're eating well, and give them space until they're ready to say hello. No chasing, no pressure.
Request Your Favorite Sitter
Found a sitter your cat loves? Let us know when you book, and we'll do our best to match you with them again. Booking early, especially around the holidays, gives you the best chance.
Trusted by Chicago Cat Parents for Over a Decade
Many of our clients have been with us year after year. We're grateful for every family that trusts us with their feline friends, and we treat every cat like our own.
