Learn More About Luanne

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

I have 8 years of experience caring for cats - including taking care of my own cat through hospice & palliative care, volunteering at rescues, as well as catsitting for my neighbours & friends’ cats.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love that cats can be so different from one another - getting to know all of their little quirks and silly things about their specific personalities is the best part. Gaining their acceptance and trust (as a loyal servant) is always the best feeling in the world. I adore all cats - young, teenager, and elderly. However I have a giant soft spot for kitties with medical conditions, disabilities and of course, senior babies. I have started to specialise in Hospice and Palliative care clients recently. *Please kindly note - for kitties who needs SubQ Fluids and picky eaters who need to be medicated, it is best to book 1 full hour slots. That way time will allow for me to work with your furbaby properly and also be able to accomplish other tasks required by Meowtel such as litter box cleaning, brushing, playtime etc.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Holidays have been really tough for me since Onigiri passed. She was a Christmas bebe (her birthday is December 26th) and I am constantly reminded of her all Autumn/Winter-long starting with Halloween. This year I even randomly felt grief for Labour Day, a bank holiday I've never celebrated much due to working (very) full-time in corporate for the past 13 years. I'd like to think Onigiri is sending me your furbaby's company to help get me through the holidays with your bookings!

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

Patience & repetition is key. Timid or anxious cats tend to be terrified by sudden changes or unexpected things popping up in their routine led lives, such as a strange new hooman in their safety zone aka home (honestly, sames). Even if it’s something as simple as sitting next to their hiding spot and just talking to them in a low soothing voice for a prolonged period of time each visit, I would be happy to do so. Knowing how to read their body language is a huge advantage, since progress might be made via a friendly tail, a relaxing of the airplane ears, or eventually the coveted slow blinks of eye contact. Baby steps!

Luanne is an extremely caring and compassionate cat sitter. She took special care of our senior cat with stage 4 CKD, administering subcutaneous fluids, tending to her comfort and providing us with detailed updates and photos. she went above and beyond her call of duty. I recommend her without reservation.

Luanne was great. Despite my entry system causing issues, she was persistent in making it work so she could take care of my kitty. My cat can be quite unfriendly, but Luanne was patient with her and completed all of the care I requested, including giving medications. I would be thrilled to book Luanne again, because I know my kitty would be in good hands.

Luanne is my go to pet sitter whenever me and my partner go on vacation. We have three animals (one small pup, one senior dog, and one senior cat). Each animal has their own unique personality and quirks but Luanne is able to make sure all of them are well taken care of, giving them attention, treats, cuddles, walks and fun time as they need it! Oh yes, Luanne's whole world is about my animals when she's pet sitting and I trust her with all three animals not only because she is able to give them the love and care that I would give my pets, but Luanne also is a very responsible animal parent. I watched her care for an old and dying senior cat, which had to be medicated multiple times a day and near the end of it's life, be given an IV drip. Luanne was confident yet gentle with her administration skills, while affectionately loving the cat before and after. Luanne takes her time with the animals and doesn't rush it, for their comfort, of course. I never hesitate to have Luanne take care of my pets. I know my animals would be her number one priority and I rest assured knowing that my babies are in the best of hands!

Luanne is the ideal sitter. Having her care for my pets gives me the ultimate peace of mind to be able to focus on my trip. She loves my pets like I do and can be counted on to follow my detailed instruction. She has great instincts and passes the most important test…my pets love her too!

Frequently Asked Questions

Los Angeles cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $34.00. 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. Meowtel sitters 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 we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 will include 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. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
