Franchise Opportunity · Cats Only

Own the nation's Premier cats-only pet sitting franchise.

Every market has dog walkers. None of them have this. MEOW! pairs 25+ years of pet care expertise, cats-exclusive since 2019, with a protected territory and a brand cat parents already trust — inside a $158B pet industry.

$158B pet industry 25+ years in pet care Protected territories
53M Cat-owning U.S. households
10.9% Annual pet-sitting market growth
6% Cats' current share of that revenue
Protected Territory, yours alone

The Opportunity

53 million cat homes. 6% of the market.

The pet industry has been built around dogs for decades — cats are the fastest-growing segment in pet sitting, yet capture a fraction of the revenue. MEOW! built the cats-only operating system to close that gap: training, marketing, and client experience designed around cats, not adapted from a dog business.

Why the niche wins

Only answer in town

When a cat parent searches for cat-specific care, there's one obvious choice instead of forty general pet sitters.

Recurring by nature

Cat clients book in multi-visit blocks and come back every trip. Retention, not constant re-acquisition.

Lean to operate

No kennel, no build-out, no storefront lease. You work from home with low fixed overhead.

What you get when you sign with MEOW!

Low startup costs

A trusted brand

An industry with tailwind

Our Founder

It began with a lifelong love of cats.

Deanna Jones founded MEOW! A Cat Sitting Co. on one belief — that every cat deserves care that honors exactly who they are. No cookie-cutter visits. No one-size-fits-all.

"It began with a lifelong love of cats. What I never expected was how far that love would take me."

Who thrives here

The owners we're looking for often come from hospitality, healthcare, teaching, or corporate careers they've outgrown. What matters most is a genuine love of cats, high standards, and the discipline to build something in their own community.
