Emma was fantastic with my two cats while I was away. One of my cats has CKD and requires medication and extra attention around eating and hydration, and I felt completely confident that he was in great hands. When my other cat developed a skin issue while I was away, Emma even helped coordinate with my vet so I could get an appointment scheduled despite being overseas. She sent thoughtful updates and photos every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. My cats are both very shy, and it was wonderful to see them warm up to her. She also helped with things like bringing in mail and packages and keeping everything tidy. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats and would absolutely book with her again!

Emma is an amazing cat sitter! Our kitty is shy and was recovering from an eye issue. Emma was super responsive, patient, and sent us daily updates. We were relieved knowing kitty had a friend checking in!

Emma gave my cat exceptional care! He had a cast on his leg and needed medication for his asthma. She fed him , gave him his meds, cleaned his litter box and the cage he was in , and most importantly cuddled him ! Every day I got updates and adorable photos. Emma was simply amazing! 😻

I've used Emma twice now to care for my senior cat Clayton and both times she's been very easy to work with, communicative, and reliable. She always sends me updates including the packages I've gotten, a photo of my cats food and litter box, and plenty of pictures of my cat looking adorable. Would recommend Emma to anyone looking for cat care in the future!

I had great peace of mind leaving my cats care in Emma’s hand while I was away. She was responsive, thorough, and had the perfect gentle approach with my anxious kitty. Without having to ask, Emma would also send me 10-15 photos during each visit which I absolutely loved and appreciated. She followed my directions closely and very clearly knows what she’s doing. I would absolutely book with her again!

Emma was such a great sitter for our shy cat! She was able to quickly connect with our cat. Emma even got her to play with toys she’s never been interested in before! Emma was also very responsive and gave great updates. I would definitely use her as a sitter again!

Emma is always easy to communicate with, responsive, and so sweet with my cats. She had cat sit before for my senior kitty, when he passed I eventually got a kitten and now she is sitting for him when needed. She brings toys and plays with him, while feeding and checking on him.

Emma was so sweet to our 3 very different cats. She did excellent with meds and special feeding requests. She even brought her own wand toys to play!

Emma took great care of our kitty. We appreciated all the daily photos and videos she sent. Our kitty enjoyed all the pets and company! We won’t hesitate booking with Emma again.

Emma is amazing. She is super attentive and dealt with one of my kitties being sick (and cleaning it all up), as well as stopping my other cat from bolting out the front door. She stayed longer to keep an eye on my old guy who wasn’t feeling well, and messaged to let me know. She’s a fairy cat mother, and also takes amazing photos of the kitties while she’s caring for them. I highly recommend Emma!

Emma was the purrfect catsitter when my family was out of town. My senior kitty has Congestive Heart Failure and requires medication twice a day and Emma dutifully obliged and sent adorable pics and updates with each visit. I highly recommend her and will hire her again.

Emma was a lovely catsitter! She sent tons of pictures and updates and did a great job with my two girls, especially so with my finnicky asthma inhaler needing anxious tortie. I don’t think they missed me at all! I highly recommend Emma!

I wish I could give Emma a 10 star rating! She charmed my cats at the first meeting! The cats have put themselves on a regular schedule to come in for the night- Emma was able to keep that schedule making my absence less stressful for them (and me!). Her daily updates were greatly appreciated! Emma is truly a cat whisperer!

Emma went above and beyond in taking care of our kitty. Shortly before we were scheduled to leave, our cat got sick and had to see the vet. We considered canceling our trip, but Emma assured us that she could dispense any medication and comfort our poor baby. While we were gone, Emma kept excellent communication. She dispensed meds, played and cuddled with kitty, and sent lots of great photos. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip, knowing our cat was in great hands. Emma is a great sitter and highly recommended!

Emma is the best cat sitter we have ever had! We had to travel for a funeral and had a lot going on. Her updates were so sweet, funny, and adorable, just the bit of comfort and levity we needed. She was super responsive and both of our cats loved her! One is a quite shy kitten who doesn’t accept many pets from strangers, but by day 2 Emma had won her over. Truly amazing and would absolutely hire her again (and again and again)! Thank you so much, Emma 🩷

I’ve booked Emma for 2 visits now and I will definitely be requesting her every time I’m out of town! She sends frequent updates and awesome photos (cuddles, play time action shots), which give me ease of mind while I’m away from my babies. My older cat is a super shy guy and he warmed up to her very quickly. My younger, more energetic kitty absolutely adores her and their playtime together. Thank you, Emma!

Emma was wonderful! She is very sweet with our two cats, and was great at eating our shy cat’s trust quickly. Emma provided photos and updates with each visit. We could see how quickly our cats became comfortable with her. She is great at communicating updates and provided details about the medication she was administering to one of our kitties. We will definitely use Emma in the future and we highly recommend her to others. Thank you, Emma!

We had a wonderful experience with Emma! She has such a calm demeanor and peaceful presence that even our shy kitty felt comfortable enough to come out while we were away. She provided pictures from every visit which gave us peace of mind and let us see how happy and relaxed our cats were. We highly recommend her services and will absolutely be using her again in the future.

This is the second time we’ve used Emma. She really is the best! She sends lots of updates and takes the most beautiful photographs of our cats — seriously, she should consider being a pet photographer! We love her and will continue to book her.

We’ve had several great sitters off Meowtel, but Emma got our relatively shy girls to come out of hiding in record time. Everything’s taken care of, and pics of our cats arrive early every day. Could not be happier with the job Emma does… and we get the sense our cats feel the same.

Emma was wonderful with my cat. She sent daily updates and adorable photos that showed lots of playtime with him.

Emma was great! She was easy to coordinate a meet and greet beforehand. Both my cats were very comfortable with her and came right out. She communicated and updated during her visit and was helpful in feeding my elder cat his special diet with no issues. In highly recommend Emma, and will continue to book with her

Emma is great! My cat has medical needs and Emma was able to provide him with all the care and love he needed while I was away.

Emma was an amazing cat sitter for our two cats. She was gentle and calm with them and provided wonderful updates and pictures to us. I will absolutely book her again for future cat sitting needs!

Emma was the perfect cat sitter! This was the first time I sought a professional cat sitter, and I was worried that my shy cat would be so scared. But Emma was able to make her feel safe enough to come out, say hello, and eat some extra food. Emma was punctual, prompt in responses, and a personable person. I will absolutely be using Emma’s service in the near future :)

Emma was very responsive and every day sent photos and an update. It gave us peace of mind that our very social kitty had a friend visit every day!

Emma was great! She played with our two kitties, gave us daily updates with photos, and kept things in order while we were gone.

Emma was absolutely wonderful while taking care of my cat! This was my first time using a cat sitting service and she took away all my worries. Daily updates and multiple photos/videos put my mind at ease and my kitty definitely appreciated the daily brushing sessions. Would highly recommend!

great sitter! sent many pics and did exactly what we asked in the best way.

Emma has a calm and engaging energy, and our three kitties were so chill and content when we returned home from our travel. We hope Emma is available the next time we're out of town!

Emma was a wonderful fit for caring for our two senior cats. They loved her, and we so appreciated her thoughtfulness and communication along the way.

Thank you for a holiday cat watching visit with the crew. They truly adore seeing you Emma. The mood is always calm when I get home, so I know they were well taken care of.

Always a joy to have Emma watch the crew. She always goes above and beyond, we are very grateful. The babies are always calm and happy when I get home. Emma’s energy and care keep them very chill.

Emma is wonderful with animals. We are very particular about who we allow into our home and who we want in charge of our loved ones. Emma is not only a competent care taker, but her pure love of animals will put you at ease. She will always be our first choice to look after our pets.

Willness to take on responsibility of cat care

Emma is very calm and connects with my cats well. She is trustworthy and very reliable. My cats like her a lot and she spends quality time with them. She goes above and beyond. You would be lucky to have her as your cat sitter.
