Learn More About Alyssa
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I enjoy meeting different cats and learning about their personalities. Some are super approachable, while others can be quite shy or nervous. I also enjoy just spending time with them - either playing, snuggling, or lounging around. Each cat is unique and has their own quirks to discover.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
My two kitties are Shiro and Soma. They have two very distinct personalities and are both quite vocal. One is a serious snuggler and the other is extremely playful!
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I like to familiarize myself with the home and identify any potential hazards, as well as secure all doors and windows. I try my best to stick to the cat's typical routine for feeding and playtime and communicate regularly with parents for updates or concerns.
What is your favorite cat toy?
I have two - crumpled paper balls and wand toys. My cats enjoy these so much and it caters to their hunting and chasing instincts.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I give timid cats their space and time to approach me first. I avoid any sudden movements or loud noises to ensure they feel safe. I also bring a tasty treat so they will associate me with a positive experience and we build trust. Sometimes it takes a couple of visits for them to fully warm up to me and that's okay.

Alyssa is a wonderful pet sitter. She was our first Meowtel sitter and then we booked her again when our schedules aligned. She is thorough, follows directions and gives lots of affection to our cat - who needs a lot of snuggles.

Alyssa was great with my cat who is a bit shy. She has great communication, sent lots of cute pics, let me know if Ziggy ate soft food and generally how the visit went. Ziggy ate soft food every day which was important to stay hydrated and played with Alyssa. I highly recommend her as a cat sitter.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.
If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.
Sacramento cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.
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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet!
