Learn More About Therese

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What I enjoy most about cat sitting is meeting new cats! I am the person at the party scouting for the family kitty to spend the evening bonding with. I truly love all cats and plan to meet as many as I can!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two kittens named Harpo and Lorelei. They are orange littermates and tons of adorable trouble. One neat thing about them is that they are highly trained. Harpo is a bit od a YouTube celebrity and can be directed on how to act. Lorelei also fetches, does tricks, and rides on shoulders.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

With previous cats, and my current two kittens being "runners," I am overly cautious about doors. All cats and their safety is precious to me. I am also a big advocate for actively monitoring cats and their environment to make sure anything hazardous is not a toy option and that the cat is safe in every way possible.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available all holidays excluding Resurrection Sunday and the day after Christmas. Other than those two definitely dates, I am avaliable!

What is your favorite cat toy?

I would have to say cat wands! They promote active and engaged play for Cat and human alike. Engaged play makes everyone happy!

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

I have had quite a few "wallflower" kitties and the best approach I have found is drawing them out with my voice and rewards. To the cats that are food motivated, I will bring some treats! And to my play motivated friends, I'll wait for you to attack your favorite toys!

Frequently Asked Questions

Tucson 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 $24.00. 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.
