Learn More About Laura

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I’ve owned cats for several years and I volunteer regularly at a Cat Rescue in Vista where I care for, monitor health and clean up after lots of kitties.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Ensuring a cat is feeling cared for and comforted while their owner is away. Not just stopping by to feed and clean, I always wanna make sure the cats feel cared for.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I stayed with four kittens in Colorado overnight and still have amazing memories (I didn’t get a lot of sleep) but it was worth it.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My cat Henry is a pretty exceptional kitty. He enjoys car rides, begging for treats and sleeping in hot laundry piles. I have had im for 8 years and he is getting a bit older and slowing down but still a bright and hilarious personality. He is a patient with the amazing staff at North County Cat Hospital in Oceanside.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Go with someone who makes you feel comfortable! Sometimes cat people can be weird and uncomfortable (I've met a few!) and that's not

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

The 4 H's! Housing - I'd love a tour of your home, learn about entry and exit and any areas where your kitty usually hands out. History - Has your cat been left alone for long periods of time before? How have they done? Habits - What are your daily habits or routine with your cat? (food, litter, play) Health - Does your cat have any health issues or have they displayed any different behaviors in the past couple days?

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

I usually canvas the area, looking for any thing unusual inside or outside the house...even if its in a room the cat is not in, I check for any residue, hair balls, accidents, etc.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yup. I don't travel too much.

What is your favorite cat toy?

Lasers, Feather Wands, Cat Nip.

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

Get low to the ground, soothing voices and slow blinks. I know it takes patience and I've seen awesome improvements with scared cats using these methods.

Laura was so sweet to my cats and was very respectful towards my shy one. I can’t thank her enough. I felt at ease knowing my cats were well taken cared of. She’s a natural at what she does. I also appreciated the photo and video updates very much!

Frequently Asked Questions

Vista cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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.
