The nation's premier cats-only pet sitting franchise.

Press materials, brand facts, and founder background for reporters covering franchising, pet care, or women-owned business growth.

The Story

A niche wide enough to build a franchise on.

MEOW! A Cat Sitting Co. launched in Pinellas County, Florida with a simple premise: cats deserve care built entirely around them, not adapted from a dog business. Twenty-five years of founder Deanna Jones's pet-care experience, cats-exclusive since 2019, became a franchise system in 2026 — the first cats-exclusive pet sitting franchise in the country.

The pet-sitting market is growing 10.9% annually toward $1.4B by 2030, with cats the fastest-growing segment yet capturing just 6% of revenue — the gap MEOW! Franchising exists to close.
