Learn More About Laura

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

I grew up helping with neighborhood cats and dogs. I had to IV fluids into a geriatric cat. I also raised stray kittens found in a window well and found them all homes, including their young mom who became a mouser at a local barn! [so approximately 17 years if you could watching neighbors pets in middle school]

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 2 at the moment, Jethro Gibbs and Sasuke. They were found in a trash can during Covid at only 4 weeks old but are my best friends. They are surprisingly around, like in wanting to always be attached at my hip and play or nap on me. One is great with people and wants to make all the friends. The other is very shy and scared and doesn’t like ‘new’ in any form and glares from across the room at guests.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am unfortunately not around this year for Labor Day, nor Thanksgiving or Christmas as I will be with my family back in the Midwest, but I am around most other federal holidays!

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

One of my cats is very loving with me but terrified of life. He hisses when a shoe moves into a place he didn’t know it would be. He hides whenever guests are over. For your cats, I would want your desires to be known, if you want me to try to befriend them, calm, slow movements and trying to let them smell me. I can bring a book and exist in their space. I can lure them with treats if you want. The big thing is not being a loud or fast moving new item into their space. I don’t want to stress them out but in my heart I hope they will eventually want to be my friend or at least tolerate my presence in their territory.

Laura was great! She was able to extend my reservation when I unexpectedly had to extend my trip due to a family emergency. She sent pictures daily and was awesome about giving my one cat medication and all of them attention.

Laura was really great with all the cats, which is especially important since one of mine needs medications. She gave daily updates on the cats and made sure all the critical care items were completed. She also gave them lots of play time 😊

this was my first time having to use a cat sitter and Laura was amazing. She was able make friends with even my shy kitty the first night! meal time is complicated at my house due to specialized diets and small cat that is easily bullied, but she had no problems running the circus. I loved the twice daily updates on all my cats which made me very comfortable for my extended trip.

I was super nervous about going out of town because of my needy kitties who need some oral and some injectable medications. I am so happy to have found Laura who not only handled everything easily but is super detail oriented and provides great updates! I would recommend her to anyone and will always request her if she is available on the future!

It's always tough having to choose a cat sitter - even harder when having to choose a new one after moving. Thankfully Laura turned out to be fantastic. She has a cat similar in personality to mine, making adjusting easy. She keeps fantastically detailed notes making planning, and then being away from home, really easy and stress free. I'm glad to know I'll have a great cat sitter to return to in the future!

I was nervous about leaving my fuzzy kids with someone new. When Laura came over it was like we knew each other for ever and the kids felt the same way. I have 2 very shy females and the came out and accepted her as family. I will definitely be using Laura forever.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tempe 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 $25.00. 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.
