An animal lover, I've had cats in my life for over 30 years and enjoy everything about them! My current cat, Dude, is a handsome, social Tabby. He is my third cat. I've cat sit for several folks in the last few years and volunteer as a kitty caregiver at a rescue called Fearless Kitty in Fountain Hills. After ensuring the kitties are cared for, I get to socialize and play with them! It's a great way to start my Saturday! Working at Fearless Kitty gives me the opportunity to learn about cat behavior and how to watch for signs of distress.

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

Beyond caring for my own, I've cat sit for three friends from a few days to over a week. I also volunteer as a kitty caregiver at a local rescue

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Playing! I like to get on the floor with some toys and just make it fun. Purrs and snuggles are the reward.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I've watched a Tabby named Toby twice. He's a bit of a senior but still enjoys the feather wand. Whenever I visit, he runs to me and rubs against me.

Kathy was absolutely amazing! Took care of 3 needy kitties, one of them requiring mess twice a day. Additionally, Kathy was attentive to my pets' needs and movements and kept me informed during every visit. She instantly learned about their personalities and I was just blown away by her care and obvious experience with cats. This was my first experience with Meowtel and I would highly recommend this service and especially Kathy.

I had a wonderful experience with Kathy and would absolutely recommend her. She had great communication the entire time and sent me lots of pictures, which really helped me feel at ease while I was away. I was especially amazed at how comfortable one of my formerly feral foster cats was with her. He has never warmed up to anyone so quickly before! She truly seems to have a magic touch with cats. When I returned home, all of my cats were happy and well cared for, and the litter boxes were meticulously clean. I felt completely comfortable leaving my cats in her care and will definitely have her watch them again in the future!

Kathy was so good with our boys. They are brothers and just over a year old. They are both a bit shy, but we saw her play with them in the many pictures she sent every day. When we met her at the meet and greet she asked great questions and took lots of notes. She also went above and beyond and took our trash can and recycling can to the curb and brought them in also. We are now sure that when we decide to go on vacation, we have someone who will give our boys the love they deserve while we are gone!

I can’t say enough great things about Kathy. I hired her super last minute to drop in and feed my cats, clean their litter boxes, and check on them while I was away. Not only did she take amazing care of them, but she also went above and beyond, cleaning up after their messes and making sure everything was in order and gave them treats. She was friendly, engaging, and sent me daily pictures and updates, which gave me total peace of mind when I was away from my babies. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Truly amazing service and care, especially during Christmas week and on such short notice!

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

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.

Mesa cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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!
