Learn More About Alisha

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

I started pet sitting in 2007 and have pet sat consistently ever since. I have experience with lots of different types of animals and plenty of experience with kitties of all ages.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy getting to spend time with as many kitties as possible 💕 Their personalities are all so unique. It's fun for me to get to know each and every kitty I meet.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two 17 year old ladies. Their names are Thing One and Thing Two :) They're very funny and make me smile every day.

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

I'm always available to answer any questions or concerns a pet parent might have. Please don't hesitate to reach out. Once a pet sit is booked I will come over for a complementary meet and greet. It will give me a chance to meet every one. I want all of my clients to be completely comfortable with me and I do my absolute best to put clients at ease while they are away.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am typically available most holidays.

Alisha was absolutely amazing with our kitty Boba! This was the first time we have used a cat sitter, and we were initially a little hesitant because Boba is a very shy cat when it comes to people he doesn’t know. However, Boba must have sensed Alisha’s kindness and trustworthiness, as he warmed up to her so quickly and was so comfortable with her taking care of him. She’s also very communicative and responsive, and sent us detailed updated with lots of photos after each visit. We will definitely use Alisha again for all our cat sitting needs, and we can’t recommend her enough!

Alisha is an absolutely amazing cat sitter. She is great with giving our grumpy senior cat her meds and meeting our request for specific visitation times. Every day she watched her we looked forward to her timely detailed updates and a bunch of pics. We always worry about leaving Nelly but having Alisha watch her gives us so much solace, she’s worth every penny!!

I am so glad we found Alisha to sit for our cats. The detailed updates, adorable pictures and going above and beyond with the mail and multiple litter changes allowed us to be totally at ease on vacation. Her knowledge about insulin injections and willingness to administer them saved our kitty from a long week being boarded at the vet. We could not have asked for better cat care!

Everyday we woke up to 10-15 photos of Nelly and a very detailed review of how the visit went. Nel has IBD and requires medication daily, Alisha handled it like a pro! I felt so comforted to know that our girl was in safe hands while we were away, Alisha’s services are worth every penny!

Alisha did a great job. This is the second time she catsat for me, and I was just as pleased as the first time. She visited when she said she would, and in addition to the basic care of feeding and cleaning the litter box, she changed his water every day and spent a lot of time petting and playing with him. I am very comfortable with Alisha in my house, she's responsible and accommodating. I am grateful to have someone so kind looking after my cat when I'm away.

Alisha took PURRfect care of our 18- year old cat while we were gone for a week. I never had a worry. When she couldn’t find our litter scoop, she just solved the problem and bought one, having it delivered next day! Our old boy really warmed up to her quick, and I give credit to Alisha for that!

I am 100% happy with Alisha, as she is a great, professional cat sitter! I wish Meowtel had a better policy for cancellation of a trip. I had to cancel a trip due to medical issues and lost all that money, as it was less than the almost 3 days ahead you require. If a customer has to cancel once in awhile, even the day before, I think you should refund their money.

Alisha was everything we hoped for in a pet sitter! With 2 elderly senior cats we were worried about leaving them. We LOVED the cute pictures she kept sending to us, showing our cats comfortable and happy while we were gone. Alisha also house-sat for a small additional fee and made our house her home base. She COMPLETELY respected our home, and our cats were completely well adjusted. Alisha really has a good way with animals - it’s obvious that she developed a special connection with them. You can’t go wrong with Alisha as a pet sitter!

Alisha is amazing! She took great care of our 2 kitties, sending detailed updates and the cutest pictures each day! They looked so happy in all the pics. She kept us updated with the time frames she'd be coming each day and did all the essentials each visit plus all the additional things we asked her to do to make our kitties comfortable while we were away. This was our first extended time away from our kitties and she put us at ease from the moment we met her that our babies would be well cared for. One if our kitties is a bit skiddish to new people but she took right to her and even was asking for belly rubs from her by the end of the week! Definitely will use her the next time we have to be away!

My cat and I were lucky to find Alisha when my usual cat sitting friend became unavailable right before my vacation. From the time I initially reached out to her and arranged a meeting, I could tell that she's a professional and caring person. She has always been prompt to respond to messages, and accommodated my schedule and came to meet Peanut and me on the weekend. While visiting, she took notes and made sure to understand everything I was expecting of her. During my trip, she did a great job of not only taking care of feeding and cleaning up the litter, but she was also gentle and friendly with Peanut, they played for a while every day (I could tell when I occasionally peeked into my cat cam). Peanut was full of energy and excited when I got home, no doubt because he got so used to all the attention Alisha gave him every day all week long, which I'm grateful for. Maybe he even got a little spoiled under Alisha's care. Plus, the photos she sent me were super cute and helped comfort me for how much I was missing my furball. I wouldn't hesitate to book Alisha again next time I need someone to care for Peanut.

Her service costs about $12/day more than the service that we have been using for decades....but our previous pet sitter never told us anything about how our cats were doing. I believe, that if one of our cats were having a medical issue, that Alisha would notice it. She observes our cats and plays with them, and could tell if there were an issue. We have made the decision to change over to Alisah, as much as possible! YEAH! I feel happy for our kitties!

I cannot say enough good things about Alisha. I have looked for a cat sitter for the past several years, but it's never worked out for different reasons. So I've never left them behind and I was apprehensive over doing so. Alisha's demeanor put me to ease and, as an added bonus, she sent me the absolute cutest pictures of my cats the entire time we were away. She was responsive to my messages and proactively communicated updates both morning and night. I couldn't ask for anything more. She left a goodie bag for my boys and they love their new toys. I can also tell she played with them a lot because the older cat is more goofy and playful than he's been in a while. Seriously, she's everything I could hope for in a cat sitter.

Alisha made daily visits to feed and check on our 15 year old cat Jasper. Her daily text updates and photos made us feel like we were still with him instead of being 2,000 miles away. Jasper does not like strangers, but he was totally at ease with Alisha during our introduction meeting. We will definitely have Alisha care for Jasper during our future travel plans and highly recommend her for looking after your own furry friends.

Frequently Asked Questions

Galena cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, 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. 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.
