Ariel was very attentive to my cats and their signals. I could tell she really cared about them and she followed all instructions to a T. My cats were big fans!

Ariel was absolutely fantastic for our two kitties! She stopped by for a meet-and-greet before our trip, she accommodated our requests for visit time of day, and she went way above and beyond with the pics and updates!! Our boys were very well-fed and content when we returned!

Our usual cat sitter was not available when we needed to go out of town, and honestly I was really worried! However, we found Ariel and she was wonderful with our two kitties! She sent a ton of pictures and videos and kept us updated during each visit. She was quick to respond and made us feel so comfortable (especially during the pre-visit to get our keys!). We will definitely be booking with her again!

Ariel was amazing help with our senior kitty, while we were out of town. Our cat is very nervous and shy, and occasionally grumbly, but Ariel was so kind and patient with her! She was super communicative and all around fabulous. We are hoping to work with her again as often as we can!

Ariel went above and beyond with our kitties! One of them is generally sickly, and I think the stress of our absence made her symptoms worse. Ariel was amazing in handling an unfortunate amount of daily messes and making sure our kitties got their medications and some love and pets. Would most definitely hire her again!

Ariel took such great care of our 3 cats during our 10-day vacation. One of our cats, Elly, has anxiety and needs medication. Elly isn't the friendliest cat initially but Ariel handled her and her medication amazingly, and even began winning Elly over. Ariel provided us with thorough updates , played with all our cats, and kept our home clean. We're so thankful that we've found a cat sitter we trust and would happily use Ariel again.

Ariel did a fantastic job...even though she had to deal with my problem child who decided he would "test the baby sitter" by refusing to take his meds. But, Ariel didn't give up and she figured out how to lure him with treats, pets and brushing. He even became friends with her by the end of the trip. All-in-all, a great sitter. And she took some adorable photos, updating me on each visit.

Ariel has been an amazing caretaker for my shy cat! Every morning she sent me photos of my cat Michi along with a detailed report of Michi’s mood, behavior, and even updates for household items like mail and packages. Ariel was patient with my shy cat and was able to lure her out by making her feel comfortable and taking time to build trust. Ariel was highly professional and clearly an experienced and enthusiastic cat caretaker. I will definitely be hiring her again!

Ariel was the best and our cat knew! Didion was so happy to see Ariel each day and was immediately comfortable with her. We are so happy that we found a sitter that took such good care of Didion. Ariel went above and beyond due to some difficulties at our home and was so gracious about it. We will definitely have Ariel watch Didion again!

Ariel was so incredibly wonderful. She was thorough and inquisitive during our meet & greet. Our cat, Jonesy, requires medication and supplements. I never worried about him receiving the best care and attention as I received photos and updates daily from Ariel. Here's to hoping Ariel is available the next time we are away! :)

Ariel was AMAZING! We were out of town for a few days and Ariel took care of our extremely shy kitty! Ariel had the best gentle approach with our scaredy cat. She sent pics of each visit and even coaxed our cat to peek out from under the bed (super rare for our kitty, who is scared of new people)! Ariel is the best!

Ariel was so awesome! We have 11cats and she handled everything with poise and compassion! We were incredibly nervous about 1 cat in particular because of her medical needs and Ariel just handled it perfectly. She gave us a thorough text each time she left the house, even expressed some concerns and gave her opinion). Loved it. We asked for compassion and patience- she gave our babies exactly that. Thanks Ariel, the cats love you!

I have a very anxious small dog that was nearing the end of recovery from a major surgery when I had to leave town for the weekend. I am typically nervous leaving her with anybody because of her anxious demeanor - she stops eating, won't socialize etc - in my absence, but I was especially nervous this time because of the recent surgery. Ariel did a wonderful job caring for Mindy, she was able to get her to eat and to come out of her bed to socialize a bit; she even gave me photo updates on how she was doing while I was gone! Additionally, she took very good care of the house while I was gone and kept my plants alive in the LA summer heat. I truly appreciated the patience and kindness she showed to Mindy, who is not always so easy to care for. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for short or long term animal care and I will be booking her again for my upcoming labor day weekend trip!

Frequently Asked Questions

Troy cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. 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.
