Learn More About Cam

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

My favorite thing about cat sitting is getting to know the cat’s personality and quirks. Each cat is so unique!

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

Of course I will adhere to the baseline rules that have been set by the cat parent. Outside of that, I think that monitoring for any signs of irregular behavior is really important for a cat’s safety.

What is your favorite cat toy?

You can really never go wrong with a cat wand. Those seem to be a favorite. I also love when a cat has a unique toy that they are obsessed with. I once sat for a cat who’s favorite toy was a ping pong ball.

Cam did an amazing job taking care of my boys while I was away! She ensure they were well taken care of and she gave updates and pictures each day!

I was a little apprehensive at first because I felt the communication could have been better, but once we were on the same page everything went smooth and I had no reason to worry. My Airbnb cat sit was successful!

Cam has so much love in her heart for cats. She is very knowledgable and responsible with my kitty, and treats my own cat as if it were hers. She loves to play with my cat, give him treats, and has even tried to teach him a few tricks. I could not ask for a better cat sitter.

Cam is a highly thoughtful and attentive cat sitter. She has experience with all kinds of cats from ones requiring medical attention, to shyer and more guarded cats (who will undoubtedly open up to Cam after a couple of visits), to affectionate cats vying for consistent attention, and beyond. Cam will ensure your cat is not just taken care of, but tended to and loved. She is communicative, reliable, thoughtful, and present.

Frequently Asked Questions

Des Moines 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 $24.00. 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.
