Learn More About Mike

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Currently, I have one cat, and her name is Samantha S’mores (former picked by me, latter being her original name). She’s a chocolate, bicolor ragdoll, and she plays fetch. Growing up, my family had three cats at various points: Chelsea, Thomas, and Colby.

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

Overshare information! All cats are different, and no new sitter has watched your cat before. Think beyond logistics, such as personality and normal behavior. It is especially important to know what you would consider “sluggish” or “lethargic” for you cat. Consider proximity! Especially with travel plans, the unexpected sometimes happens, so having someone nearby can help. There’s also always the complications created by traffic. Give options! Beyond the essential/daily needs (food, water, etc), consider providing “as time allows” tasks. For example, does your cat need to be brushed? The answer for a short-haired tabby might be different than a Maine Coon. Or if the cat doesn’t seem to want to play, what else can be done? Having multiple options and priorities for non-essential tasks makes it easier to maximize each visit to the fullest.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I’ve given up on having one, as the fancy, automated toys don’t interest my cat. However, her favorite toys include cardboard boxes, paper packaging, plastic zip ties, and pieces of string (much to my robot vacuum’s delight). She also loves playing fetch with these dental shrimp toys from Amazon. I have them on a subscription, as she puts them through a lot.

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

The main focus is helping the cat feel safe, so nothing can be forced. Instead, I move calmly and maintain distance while doing tasks like litter box cleaning or food dish refilling. If something essential requires handling the cat (e.g., meds), I try to invest time in building trust and comfort. Often, that means arriving early with a book or laptop to unofficially be around the cat before conducting the actual visit, especially in the beginning. That first time an anxious cat comes up and starts purring—it’s a special joy. No matter how often it happens, each time still feels magical.

Mike is so good with our girls and we love knowing that they are in good safe hands when we need to be away. Knowing Mike is there helps take a worry off our shoulders while we travel. He also takes phenomenal portrait shots for us.

Mike was great with my 2 4-month old kitties! This was my first time leaving them for an extended period, and Mike went above and beyond to make sure I felt connected with them while traveling! My apartment was also dealing with some maintenance issues which he communicated thoroughly about and handled wonderfully!

Great with my semi spicy tortie who needs a bit of extra attention with oral meds. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

Mike is a dream. He was a real source of relief and comfort during our trip, because we knew he was taking such excellent care of our girls. He had incredible patience for our very shy rescue and open arms for our Velcro girl. Mike is like having a trusted friend looking after your family. We will definitely use him again the next time we go out of town. Mike probably sets the bar too high.

Frequently Asked Questions

Atlanta 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 $25.00. 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.
