Learn More About Rachel

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have five black cats! Martha and Luigi are siblings and are 13 years old. Luigi was diagnosed with bone cancer in 2023 and had his leg amputated in order to cure him. Jade is a bashful cat that I rescued from a large TNR case. She has nerve paralysis in one of her front legs. While she isn’t the most social cat, she is better suited indoors. Baby is another cat from TNR who is my slow-motion chonk. She is pretty much a sloth in a cat body. Harriet is the latest addition and again, from a TNR case. She lost colon motility due to an unknown injury but after 3 months of trial and error care, she has recovered.

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

Carefully observe how any potential cat sitter reacts when they meet your cats. If they are genuinely excited to meet your cat(s), then they will make a great caregiver.

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

I follow all instructions, even if I need to read them over and over. I will contact any guardian if I am unsure about a situation or have any questions or concerns.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am! I have spent many holidays doing volunteer Trap-Neuter-Return of community cats.

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

I do not cross cat boundaries. I remain calm and quiet but let them know that I am safe. Being at their level (even if it means laying on the ground) and giving slow blinks shows a timid cat that I am not a threat. The use of interactive play allows a connection between myself and the cat while building the cat’s confidence. If food motivated, treats are helpful to build trust.

one of our cats had an issue right before we left that required antibiotics, Rachel was great about the sudden change in the care she’d be giving to our cat. Our cat was not fond of getting meds but Rachel handled it very well. She also did great at problem solving how to handle our gluttonous cat that steals everyone else’s food. The cats are usually mad when we come home but they weren’t at all this time because Rachel took good care of them!

Rachel did a great job with my cat who doesn’t see very well. With this condition it makes her very shy . Rachel played music for her which she loves and took lots of pictures for me 😻

Frequently Asked Questions

Overland Park cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $23.00. 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.
