Hi! I’m Erika, and I’ve been wanting to become a cat sitter for a while now but had no idea how to start until I found this app 😸I have experience with feeding, changing litter, playing with them, and giving them love 💗 Unfortunately I’m not experienced with giving medication.

I would like to come in at scheduled times, preferably some time between 8 AM to 4 PM.

For a week or month every year I visit my boyfriend in new york where he has 2 cats named astra and sage. I absolutely love them with my entire heart, and they made me realize how much I really wanted to try this out, especially because I was also looking for a job.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

They aren’t mine but they’re my boyfriends, though I think of them as my own. They are siblings, one is named Astra and the other is named Sage. Astra is quite timid but after a bit she warms up to me and constantly asks for butt pats 😹Sage is quite cuddly. He will come up to you immediately and start rubbing up against your leg, and eventually start asking you to pet him and his belly. Or will meow at you for treats hehe.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I love the toys that are on a stick with a string attatched. It’s so funny watching them jump up really high, and they just act silly with it in general

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

I don’t try to force anything with them. I simpy keep my distance and/or try to put treats around their safe spots so they know that I’m not scary. I also try to be predictable for them so that I don’t accidentally scare them.

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.

Louisville cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $23.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
