Learn More About Katriel

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have one cat, his name is Pauz and he's a lovely rescue! Pauz found us on the street, as he once had owners that unfortunately left him behind when they moved, so I fed him when I saw him and then once he was comfortable I adopted him and got him to the vet. He's now a very spoiled indoor boy that's fed a wide array of wet food on rotation and has his very own space!

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

When I meet a new cat parent for the first time, I establish all of the perimeters of care: what's the feeding schedule, how many litter boxes, is there any medications to be administered, and what does a typical day look like for your cat? After all of that is established and if the cat parent is comfortable with me, I then go on to find out about their preferred vet, carrier situation, and emergency contacts. I also ask for preferred way of care (would you like me to simply feed the cat and clean their litter box or is your cat a snuggler that needs companionship time?) In essence, I try to make the owners absence not noticeable to the cat by maintaining as close of a routine as I can.

Are you usually available during holidays?

My holiday availability is typically open for drop in visits and some overnights! As long as I can step away for a few hours to celebrate the holidays with my family, you can be sure that your furry friend is being lovingly cared for the entire time I'm with them.

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

In my previous experiences, cats that are timid or anxious require space, time, patience and positive reinforcements. I keep myself in the room with the cat but at a distance so that theyre not threatened by my presence, and I throw out treats towards them so they can start making the correlation that I'm not a threat and there to provide good things. If the treat trick doesnt work, I simply provide them space but remain in the room so that they get accustomed to my scent.

Katriel was so kind, super fast at responding, flexable & able to get my shy cat to come out & show her his belly!! Both of my cats loved her. She sent lots of photos & made sure that they were taken care of! I’m incredibly thankful & will definitely have her come back & watch willow & cosmo again!! :)

Katrina was knowledgeable, patient, gental, and kind. She went above and beyond to meet the needs of my physically challenged and geriatric cats. We couldn't appreciate her more.

She did an excellent job taking care of my cats. She kept them on their diet schedule, gave my senior cat his medication, and gave them plenty of brushing and love. I'm so grateful to have someone I can trust with my boys and my home.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ontario cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. 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.
