Learn More About Tj
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I currently have 2 kitties. Gunther (Gunthie-bear) is ~9 yo. He is a special guy. We adopted him when he was about 2-3 years old. If you have ever see Fishtopher on social media, he was kinda like that. Zozo (Poki) is the big 13 pound baby, Maine coon mix. He is the protector of the house and chief executive biscuit maker.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
You have to go with who feels right. No one knows your cat better than you. Meet them in person first and see if they are willing to do a test run or initial meet. Do they ask the right questions? How does you cat react to them? That’s how I always did it.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I will follow your routine exactly, double-check doors and windows, and keep the space safe for exploring. I will always make sure your cat is safe, settled, and accounted for before I leave, and I treat your home with the same respect as my own.

I can’t thank TJ enough for her help with my cat Mika. She is thorough, caring of your pet, and thoughtful in what she does. I didn’t worry once on my trip, which never happens for me. She updated me each visit on how he was doing with pictures and videos. It was clear that Mika felt comfortable and safe with her. He was well taken care of, and TJ was truly exceptional. Her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for cats make her someone I trust completely to continue using her pet sitting services.

TJ was absolutely stellar. She was great with communication, sent pictures, and kept us updated while we were away. She was also great with monitoring our cat with medical conditions and we had no worries while gone. She was super understanding as well with the shyness of our cat. She was extremely patient and even found him hiding in the ultimate hiding spot. By the end of the trip she was the favorite and our Tabby was pouting that she was gone. Cannot recommend TJ enough.

TJ is a excellent cat mom not only to her cats, but the stray cats of Manoa. This giving energy is visible in the health of the animals around her. I would definitely trust my cat to TJ!

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.
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.
Honolulu cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $28.00. 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!
