I'm Tehani
Cat Sitting in Aurora, CO
I work from home most of the time, which means I’m flexible for last-minute visits and available during holidays. After every visit, you’ll receive photos, videos, and detailed updates so you can see exactly how your babies are doing... I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I have three cats of my own, so I’ve been there. My goal is to make sure your cats are safe, happy, and well-loved while you’re away so you can relax with peace of mind.
I work from home most of the time, which means I’m flexible for last-minute visits and available during holidays. After every visit, you’ll receive photos, videos, and detailed updates so you can see exactly how your babies are doing.
One of my favorite parts of cat sitting is getting to know each cat’s unique personality. I always follow their lead, whether they’re in the mood to play, want some cuddles, or prefer to just relax in their own space.
For homes within 5 miles of me, I’m happy to stop by for key, fob, or door code pickup outside of a meet and greet if needed at no extra charge. For locations farther away, I schedule this as an additional visit.
If you have any questions or special requests, feel free to message me anytime. I’d love to care for your cats the same way I care for my own.
Learn More About Tehani
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I’ve been around cats since I was little. I started pet sitting (and babysitting) when I was 12. With three cats of my own and three younger siblings, taking care of others has always been second nature to me.
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I enjoy figuring out what they like best, whether it's specific toys or hiding spots. It’s also really rewarding to win over a cat who starts out a little wary of me. But most of all, I love getting to meet so many interesting kitties!
Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?
It’s hard to pick a favorite, but one of my very first reservations was for a kitten who was quite shy and very unsure of me. Her curiosity got the best of her, though, and by the end of the visit she was curled up on a chair right by my head, purring her little heart out. 💗
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have three! Luna is 11, a tuxedo who loves finding new hiding spots. She’s an unapologetically picky eater who refuses anything other than catnip and dry kibble. Rufus is 7 and my only boy. He’s a 17-pound orange tabby who loves playing in the snow, cardboard boxes, and lounging in his window perch. Jynx is a 6-year-old orange tabby. She’s the smallest (only 6 lbs) but easily the most mischievous. Her favorite thing ever is playing fetch with these sparkly, mini pom-poms and, of course, taunting her siblings.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
I always recommend meeting them in person. I also suggest signing a Vet Release Form ahead of time, so that if anything unexpected comes up, your cat will be taken to a vet you know and trust.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I always start with a meet-and-greet. It gives me a chance to get to know your pets, learn their routine, and make sure we’re a good fit before the booking.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I treat your home with the same respect I treat my own. I always double-check that doors are locked and everything is secure before I head out. I also stick to your cat’s routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you're gone.
Are you usually available during holidays?
I am available during holidays! I make sure to keep my schedule updated so you’ll always know exactly when I’m free.
What is your favorite cat toy?
Catnip toys. They’re simple, but cats love them. Either that or a classic wand toy. Usually my favorite toy is the one they actually like to play with!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I take a slow, gentle approach with anxious kitties. I give them plenty of space and let them come to me on their own terms. I usually just hang out nearby to keep them company so they know they’re safe, without feeling pressured to interact.

I appreciate Tehani so much! Got a new fully in office job and wanted to give my baby girl some company while I'm away all day. She always let's me know when she gets there, takes pictures for me and makes sure her water bowl is full. Every time. 10/10 would recommend!

Tehani was wonderful! She was prompt every day and sent photos of the cats, cleaned litter, and food bowls. I had never left my cats alone for this long and having Tehani check in on them everyday made it possible for me to relax and not stress about them during my vacation. She was patient with my shy cats and still got photos to send while they were hiding under my furniture. I came home to two happy and healthy kitties!

Tehani was fantastic—reliable, punctual, and attentive to everything I asked of her. There was a stressful moment when my kitty went missing, and although I was understandably upset, Tehani remained calm, compassionate, and determined. She searched thoroughly and thankfully found her, all while being incredibly kind and supportive. I truly appreciated how she handled the situation without making me feel uncomfortable for being emotional. I highly recommend her and will absolutely be booking her again in the future.

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!

Tehani was very attentive towards my babies and she came at the times that I requested and made sure the water dishes and food dishes were full.

Tehani took care of our two cats for 5 days and was a wonderful sitter! Our one cat can be very shy around new people, but she came out to visit Tehani which means she was comfortable with her. She gave me timely updates each visit with lots of photos, which I appreciated! Will definitely book her again!

Tehani is an amazing pet sitter. She’s trustworthy, attentive, and great with animals. She took the time to understand each of my pet’s personalities and needs, made sure they feel Tehani is an amazing pet sitter—trustworthy, attentive, and clearly great with animals. They take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs, making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just providing companionship, Tehani goes above and beyond. You can tell they genuinely love animals, and it shows in how pets respond to them. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable sitter who treats your pets like their own and cared for them while I was away. Tehani goes above and beyond.
