Learn More About Lorri

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have been caring for cats my entire adult life, being very active in community care for kitties. I have been a professional cat sitter for 2 years, with excellent reviews right from the start! Let me know if you want more information on my verified fifty plus 5* reviews.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

II have always loved and enjoyed kitties, and getting to know their individual personalities. I started cat-sitting when we had a situation with cat-sitting for our family’s cat that did not work out well. I realized that it means a lot for people to be able to get away and not worry about their pet or home. So, when I retired from education, I decided to follow my love of kitties and provide a service to others.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I don't have a favorite cat sitting reservation as I have enjoyed them all. From the carefree antics of 6 week old kittens to the direct care of very senior care awesome cats: I think they are all favorites!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Toulouse, Tilly, Zion, Smoky, and the many feral cats who come and go that we feed and care for(^:^).

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

Take the time for a phone call before booking, and make sure your questions are answered and that you feel comfortable. Look at the persons reference comments, which I can provide you with for myself.

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

I have a lot of questions, and an extra form for clients to fill out so that I can provide the best care possible for each situation.

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

For the safety of your kitty I make sure they have food and clean water. I also monitor your kitty for any visible signs of change during the visit. I don't rush kitties, but let them come to me on their time. As for your home, I have had a variety of items such as watering plants, checking for signs of water leaks, and retrieving the mail. Before I leave your home I triple check that your door is locked.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am usually available during holidays; times may vary.

What is your favorite cat toy?

Hmmm, it varies on the cat, but I like ribbon wands, lasers, and toys with fresh catnip!

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

I give them space, and try to build trust with timid or anxious cats. I don't crown them, but I do try to engage them in play.

Lorri did a great job. Bleeker was very calm when I returned. She played with him and followed all the feeding and medication requirements. We will definitely have her take care of him again.

I have a special needs 18 year old cat that I left with Lorri for a month. When I picked them up they were purring in Lorri's house and didn't want to leave! Lorri was great with all the medications, special diet, and handicap requests I gave her. Even the fact that she might occasionally need to sink bath my cat didn't phase her. I will absolutely use Lorri as a pet sitter again!

Frequently Asked Questions

Meridian cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $27.00. 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. Meowtel sitters 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 we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 will include 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. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
