Treating All Fur Babies Like My Own

Cat Sitting in Lawrenceville, GA

Hi there! I’m a lifelong cat lover with a calm, nurturing approach to cat care. As a reliable and compassionate pet sitter, I treat every fur baby like my own—with patience, love, and attention to the little details that make each cat unique. Whether you have a playful kitten, a shy rescue, or a sweet senior cat, I take the time to understand their needs and adjust my care accordingly.

During each visit, I focus on creating a peaceful and stress-free environment for your cat. I offer consistent routines, interactive playtime, quiet companionship, feeding, litter box cleaning, and any additional care your kitty may need. I’m also happy to administer medications - I have experience with oral, topical ointments, eye/ear drops (if there are other medical needs I am happy to talk further) ...
Hi there! I’m a lifelong cat lover with a calm, nurturing approach to cat care.

During each visit, I focus on creating a peaceful and stress-free environment for your cat.

I’m also happy to administer medications - I have experience with oral, topical ointments, eye/ear drops (if there are other medical needs I am happy to talk further) . I provide regular updates with photos and notes, so you always know how your fur baby is doing.

What sets me apart as a cat sitter is my intuitive, respectful approach—especially with anxious or nervous cats. I never rush introductions and always pay close attention to your cat’s body language and behavior. I aim to build trust slowly and make your cat feel safe, seen, and loved.

In addition to caring for your cat, I make sure your home is secure and well-maintained. I’m happy to bring in mail, water plants, washing dirty kitty dishes, and follow any household instructions you provide. Your cat’s well-being and your peace of mind are my top priorities.

I know how important it is to find a sitter who truly gets cats and treats them like family. If you’re looking for a dependable, gentle, and experienced cat sitter who truly understands feline behavior, I’d love to connect. Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet so I can get to know your kitty and learn how I can best support their routine and happiness while you're away

Learn More About Areej

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What I enjoy most about cat sitting is being able to provide comfort and companionship to kitties who might be feeling a little lonely while their person is away. I love spending quiet time with them—whether it's engaging in play, giving gentle pets, or simply sitting nearby so they feel safe and not alone. Every cat is different, and I truly enjoy getting to know their unique personalities and routines. It's incredibly rewarding to earn their trust and see them come out of their shell. Knowing that I can help ease their stress and bring them some joy and love in your absence is what makes this work so meaningful to me.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a three year-old cat named Mango who I adopted in grad school, and he is truly the best thing that has EVER happened to me! He has brought my family together, and brings such a comfort to our home. He has truly helped me understand the deep & special bond we have with cats.

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

When working with a new cat parent, I begin with a detailed meet-and-greet to ensure I fully understand your cat’s needs and your expectations. This visit allows me to learn all the little and big details about your kitty—feeding schedules, litter box habits, favorite toys, medical needs, and any unique behaviors or preferences. I also make sure to understand the layout of your home, safety protocols, and any specific requests you have while you’re away, such as plant care, package pickup, or light schedules. During this time, I take notes and ask questions so nothing is missed, and I give your cat space to approach me at their own pace, helping them feel comfortable. I also confirm how you'd like to receive updates and handle any emergencies. My goal is to build trust with both you and your cat, providing reliable and compassionate care that keeps everyone at ease.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am typically available during the holidays and can accommodate most requests. I do my best to be flexible and I recommend reaching out as early as possible to ensure availability. Please don't hesitate to ask :)

What is your favorite cat toy?

I love cats who love random stuff -- My cat is silly and loves to play with a random black string! No idea where he found it, but it drives him nuts lol

Areej did a phenomenal job. Since I adopted my cats, I stopped going to trips cause my cats feel anxious even to ride a car and I cant leave them alone, but when I read all the good reviews of Areej I felt hopeful. Areej followed all my instructions and took excellent care of my babies like her own babies and sent updates and pictures of them everyday. I felt stress free during my 5 day trip. I will definitely book her again if I plan to go somewhere.

Thank God for Areej!!! tbh at first I was a little skeptical as I never booked with meowtel before, my cats are needy and Areej didn’t have many reviews on here yet. HOWEVER, here’s why you should absolutely book with Areej. Areej is a professional. Not only did she deliver, but she went the extra mile to send daily pictures and was ALWAYS available while I was traveling abroad. Both my cats are diabetic and I was shocked by how quickly Areej got the hang of things and how comfortable both of my cats were around her (they are skiddish and mistrusting of strangers - imagine how they handle needles). Areej thinks on her feet, is capable and resourceful, not to mention kind and gentle with the my cats (most important part). Will definitely be booking again if I can and you should too!

Areej did a phenomenal job watching my kitten Alfie. I always got timely photos and videos of his refreshed food bowls and of him which gave me so much peace of mind after I was already anxious leaving him alone for the first time. She also really has a way with animals! He’s usually so afraid of strangers he ends up hiding when people come over, so I told her it was ok if she didn’t really see him at all but to my surprise he was so relaxed and playful with her starting from the very first day! Lastly she went above and beyond what I asked her to do and even cleaned up his occasional messes with his food bowl and it made a world of a difference to a clingy cat mom like me haha. If you’re considering hiring Areej, think no more just do it! I can guarantee it will be the best decision.

Areej was terrific from start to finish. I had to go out of town suddenly and had limited time for the meet and greet. Areej responded immediately and accommodated my schedule by meeting me that night. She was super friendly, engaged, took notes and asked questions. Daily she sent detailed updates and pics. She is an excellent communicator and responds instantly. I have four quirky rescue cats so she had her hands full, but she took my instructions in stride and handled everything masterfully. I did not worry about them at all as I knew they were in very capable hands. I will definitely book with Areej again! Thanks Areej!

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

Lawrenceville cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $22.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.

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!
