Learn More About Arden

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

I have been cat sitting for about two years now, caring for a variety of cats within my community. I love watching over them and getting to meet new kitties is something that brings a lot of joy to my life. Even when a cat sitting reservation is over, I am always happy to hear about how my kitty clients are doing!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Perhaps a cliche, but forming connections with cats and their owners has been the most rewarding part of this experience. They say if you love a job, you never work a day in your life and that is exactly how cat sitting feels for me!

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

While in college, I took care of a sweet, but extremely shy female cat. She kept her distance throughout 95% of the time that I spent with her. Food failed to entice her and even toys never got her much farther than the edge of her hiding space. Towards the end of our visits, I realized that she loved the windowsill. The blinds were typically closed but I would open them whilst I was over. It was so rewarding seeing her enjoy her time sunbathing and listening to the wind. At the end of it all, she still never let me get within 5 feet of her but seeing her enjoy her window spot was a beautiful feeling.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two cats; a sweet 2-year old calico named Tuba and a loud 1-year old lynx point named Kaiba! They’ve both taught me so much about cats as a whole and I have been so happy to build a life with them.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am typically available during holidays! My personal vacation time is flexible and I am a big planner so I will know many months in advance if I am planning to take time off.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I love wand toys and the simplest one that my cats still enjoy is just a piece of ribbon and a stick. Best of all, the ribbon can be replaced at a low cost for endless hours of play time. Another popular one from other cat parents seems to be a hair tie; simple but effective!

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

Patience patience patience! I have found that it is more so about the quality of time than the length of it. As someone who adopted a VERY skittish cat, I approach each interaction with a willingness to learn about the cat, on their own terms. In the case of cats that are more shy, I always appreciate any tips the family has as well, which tend to be the most useful sources of information.

Arden did great in caring for my 2 cats! I booked a twice a day visit and she ensured that my cats are fed, given medication, litter boxes cleaned, given playtime and affection. She’s great at following instructions needed for the cats and my apartment and will definitely book her again in the future if needed!

We had the absolute best experience with Arden as our cat sitter during our month-long trip. She was incredibly friendly with our cat, who warmed up to her right away, and it was clear she genuinely cared about his comfort and well-being. Arden is very detail-oriented and kept us fully updated throughout the month with thoughtful notes and plenty of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We especially appreciated how proactive she was — not only did she take excellent care of our cat, but she also noticed and reminded us about small household issues (like a smoke detector beeping) that we might have otherwise missed. Her reliability, communication, and care went above and beyond what we expected from a sitter. We’re so grateful to have found her and would wholeheartedly recommend Arden to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and loving to care for their pets.

This was our first time using this service and we were a bit nervous. BUT Arden was AMAZING. One of our cats is very scared and skiddish and he allowed Arden to pet him the very first visit. Needless to say we were mind blown and it shows how great she is with cats. I was happy to receive a report every visit along with pictures. I cannot recommend her enough and she will be my go to sitter moving forward. THANK YOU Arden for taking care of our fur babies with kindness and we appreciate you so much!

Arden was absolutely amazing! This was my first time trusting someone outside of family to watch my two kitties, and she completely exceeded every expectation. From the moment we met her, she was warm, professional, and clearly very experienced with cats. She truly went above and beyond during her stay. She cared for my cats like they were her own and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and loved while we were away. She was incredibly attentive, reliable, and thoughtful in every interaction. Knowing they were in such good hands gave me so much peace of mind. Arden is the kind of pet sitter every pet parent hopes to find: trustworthy, professional, kind, and genuinely passionate about animals. I would welcome her back anytime, and we will absolutely be booking with her again. My kitties adored her, and so did we! Highly, highly recommend

Frequently Asked Questions

Dublin 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 $37.00. 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.
