Learn More About Amelia

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

When working with a new cat parent, I like to get some essential information from them via a chat, and generally prefer to set up an in-person meet-and-greet before starting to sit if possible. During the meet-and-greet I review important information with my clients, including what they're looking for in a sitter and their expectations, their cat's personality, and any special needs their cat may have. I typically take notes during these meetings as well! After the meet-and-greet and discussions about scheduling, if we both feel good about the match, I'll accept the sitting request!

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

I think it's important to give cautious cats the time they need to warm up! I am a very patient sitter, and am happy to spend a little extra time with a cat so they feel comfortable with me in the house. I find that letting a cat come to me, and coaxing them gently with treats and toys and soft talking generally seems to work best.

Frequently Asked Questions

Somerville 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.
