I'm Alyvia | Cat Sitting in Brighton, MA

For as long as I can remember I've loved cats! Every Christmas I begged Santa for a kitten to show up under my tree, I even did a project in the 3rd grade about cats to prove I was knowledgeable and could handle them. I did end up getting a cat for Christmas one year and she was the best part of my life. Now don't get me wrong all animals are great, but the love and affection a cat can show when they truly appreciate you is one of a kind! Growing up with my cat, Peaches, I learned a lot about cat's behaviors and how to handle them. It taught me that, like us all, cat's need their own space and independence but still love affection and to be cared for. Once I got older I started cat sitting for friends and family and eventually made my way to work at an animal hospital! This helped me learn that cat's can be weary of new people and need time adjusting to change. While Peaches was very sw...

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

My favorite part is being able to meet so many cute kitties! Each cat has their own personality so it's great to be able to see that and grow a relationship with them. Plus cats are always so cute, it doesn't hurt to have such adorable company!

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

There are a few things that I do when I work with a first time client but the one I've found that's most important is a detailed list/schedule. I try to have my clients fill out as much information about their cat's schedule, diet, favorite toys, favorite spots, medications, allergies, etc. This helps me gain trust and build a relationship quicker with their cat while also keeping the cat safe and cared for.

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

The main thing a cat needs when warming up to you is patience! Patience is always key and working at their pace will eventually allow them to warm up to you. Some cats do take longer to get comfortable and trust you. Therefore making sure you're respecting their boundaries while also letting them know you're there to care for them, will allow them to slowly warm up to you. Giving some treats and playing with their favorite toy doesn't hurt either!

Alyvia was so nice and easy to work with. I was a little unorganized because I had been traveling a lot recently and she was very understanding of my hectic energy. My cat loved her and immediately wanted pets and attention when they met. I’ll definitely book Alyvia again. when I need a sitter.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $33.00. 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.
