We are so lucky to have found Catarina to take care of our little Prancer when we go away! He was born on the side of our house 11 years ago and was a neighborhood feral cat for the first half of his life, gradually getting more and more used to my wife and me, venturing inside to eat (but no touching!), then dashing back out the front door. He only became a fulltime indoor cat a year ago, so he's still somewhat leery of "outsiders." Catarina goes the extra mile to try to connect with him, and it really makes a huge difference. It means so much to us to get her long, detailed updates, along with photos. She is the next best thing to us being there with Prancer.

Katarina was great with Prancer, our formerly feral cat. He has only been a fulltime indoor cat for 6 months, so he's still a little leery of new faces. But in the 5 short days that Katarina tended to him, her efforts to gain his trust (by talking to him, offering him treats, etc.) seemed to pay off: On the last day, he actually walked into a room where she was. The daily photos and updates were exactly what we needed to put us at ease, especially this being our first time using a service like this. She was great and will definitely be our Prancer sitter next time!

Kat did a great job in kitty care for my cat while I was away. She made all efforts to reach my cat, who was hiding in the closet each time Kat made a visit. Finally, after several days & slow, quiet efforts to connect with my cat, she finally allowed Kat to give a head scratch. That turned into cuddling and a connection was made! 😽

As a first time Meowtel user, I was naturally a bit apprehensive leaving Marko with a new person. However, from the first meeting Katarina's punctuality, attention to detail and obvious love for cats stood out. Her calm and cheerful demeanor won both Marko and I over quickly. Marko is particular, so that means a lot 😊. I also appreciated how communicative Katarina was, asking clarification and sharing many photos. Highly recommend!

Katarina is the best pet sitter I’ve ever had! She is so sweet and intentional with my fur babies and also very tidy. She follows directions thoroughly! My favorite thing though, is that I feel my cats are receiving much needed enrichment and socialization while I’m away! It means a lot. I highly recommend her! 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛❤️

Katarina always takes great care of my babies! She also provides photo updates and a general review of each visit. I appreciate that so much!

Katarina did an amazing job taking care of our little guy. She did everything I asked and more. I appreciated the pictures and messages that she sent after each visit. My cat took to her immediately. I would definitely have her care for my cat again.

Katrina is the best! Cats were fed, safe, and happy. Communicated everything. Super nice. Both cats loved her, even the grumpy one.

Katarina was wonderful as always. She provided thorough updates and we were confident our little guy was in good hands.

Katarina was a pleasure. She went above and behond to take care of our little cat. highly recommended.

The reservation process went smoothly. I was able to make a reservation with a pet sitter that I have engaged and like before. Katarina was great! she worked with my schedule and was able to do all the little kitty-sitting duties well.

Kat took care of my boy and provided excellent communication after each visit. 10/10 would definitely hire again.

Kat is absolutely wonderful with cats! She’s reliable, attentive, and has a calm, caring presence that animals naturally trust. Every time she’s watched my cat, I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty and a spotless space. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter who will treat your pet like her own.

Katrina is amazing, talented, and brilliant human being. She’s has wonderful creative mind, and follows through on her ideas, and responsibilities. She is someone I admire, and respect very much. She will be great on anything she focuses on because it’s who she is.
