Learn More About Zainab

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have one kitty named Harry who is 3 years old. He’s orange and white, very sweet, and endlessly playful. He had a rough start to life and I rescued him from a difficult home when he was just a few months old. I spent the first year we had together helping him feel safe and learn how to just be a cat. Watching him grow into the confident, goofy little guy he is now has been incredibly special.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Generally, yes. I’m usually available during holidays and understand that many people travel during those times. Occasionally I take a holiday trip myself, but that’s pretty rare, so most of the time I’m happy to help care for your cat while you’re away.

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

I approach anxious or timid cats with patience and respect for their boundaries. I never force interaction and let them set the pace while they get comfortable with me. I’ll sit quietly, speak softly, and give them space so they can observe me first. Over time, most cats warm up once they realize I’m a calm and safe presence. I also try to stick closely to their normal routines since familiarity helps reduce stress.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sunol cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $42.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
