Learn More About Holly

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love the shy cat babies and the seniors! I am so overjoyed and honored when I can get them to come out of their shells. It is a great feeling knowing they trust me and feel comfortable being themselves.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Ensuring the safety and security of your fur babies and home are of utmost importance to me. During the visit I make sure your fur babies are eating well, drinking fresh water, using their litter box, playing and getting any medical needs met. I also take note of any "off" behaviors like vomiting, lethargy, litter box issues and communicate them immediately. I have a check list that I follow when leaving your home at the end of each visit. I make sure to visually see your kitty, I secure any wand toys that have been played with and doors and windows are locked/secured and triple checked before I leave. I also collect newspapers/mail. Safety and security are of utmost importance always!

What is your favorite cat toy?

You might be surprised at this one. A small piece of paper rolled into a little ball is my favorite cat toy. Cats love to chase these little balls as they skitter across the floor. It is a hit almost every time!

Holly is amazing! She went above and beyond to take care of our two shy cats, and became good friends with them quicker than I could imagine. She gave them plenty of playtime, and cleaned the litter robot and wet food residue off the floor every time they made a mess. She even took care of an ant infestation!

Benny & Binx LOVED their time with Holly! She was able to brush BOTH our boys (something we have not been too successful with.) Holly’s pictures spoke volumes of their time spent together. Binx is our stand offish boy. But, two days after we returned home, he waited by the door for Holly’s return. Holly’s communication and photos truly put us at ease in leaving our “kids” for such a long time. Play is EXTREMELY important to Benny. He loves toys and has a lot of them. Holly brought toys that were even more interactive than what Benny already had. Holly discovered both of our boys liked crumpled paper “balls”. It just goes to show that our kids don’t need fancy stuff to have fun. We had our apartment cleaned professionally before we went on vacation. Holly got our stainless steel kitchen sink to gleam to a mirror finish. (Something the cleaners didn’t achieve.) This was extremely important to us because we feed raw food exclusively. Holly understands the extra sanitation required for raw feeding. We mix additional supplements and digestive aids into the raw food. Holly followed each of our instructions without question. She limited treats as instructed and showed concern when Binx wasn’t eating the amount directed. (He is a nibbler and eats small amounts, but eats often.) Her focus and observations really prove her dedication to the cats she serves. Book Holly without hesitation. She provided piece of mind that made our vacation even more memorable.

Holly was an amazing cat sitter! Our cat got along with her very well and we found him happy and healthy after 2 weeks away. Holly sent us detailed updates everyday including pictures. There is no doubt Holly cares deeply about the cats she takes care of. She takes the time to understand the needs of every cat she sits and adapts to them. Holly is also super kind and friendly. Thank you Holly!

Holly took wonderful care of our three cats while we were away for 8 days. It's not an easy assignment -- our cats require some refereeing since they don't always get along, they all want a human's full attention, and one is on daily pills that he would prefer to avoid. But Holly managed to keep the three of them from harming each other, got the pills into the sick one, and really got to know all their unique personalities. She left our home in tip-top shape, too. I hope Holly is available the next time we have to be away!

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.

San Francisco cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $40.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
