My name is Elâ and I am 19 years old. Besides owning and caring for over five cats in my lifetime, I am also a weekly volunteer at Luna Cat cafe in Syracuse. I have proficient experience with feeding, administering medicine, and handling cats of all ages, from very small kittens to elderly cats! I am very organized and am comfortable cleaning any sort of pet waste, or any messes your cat might make. I have a LOT of availability this summer, all day throughout the months of May, June, and until mid-August! I am very experienced in technology and so you will always be able to reach me. Unlike other sitters who may have a full-time job that might hinder their availability, I am a college student and therefore will be much more avaliable to take care of your furry friends while you are on vacation this summer :). If you would like a copy of my resume or have any other inquiries, feel free to contact me through the app! I hope to see you soon!

Learn More About Ela

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two cats at home currently. I have a black cat named Binx, and he is five years old! He is very shy due to the environment he grew up in as a kitten, but I have learned many tactics to deal with traumatized/shy cats and kittens through him. I have another cat named Mooshie, who is a white ragdoll! He is a sweetheart and loves human attention.

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

Make sure your cat sitter has owned cats and/or similar mammals!! Cat sitter’s who have studied/are studying animal biology/biology are usually more qualified to deal with any medical animal emergencies :)

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

Usually, giving these cats their space and allowing them to come to you are the best tactics. Cats will be hungry, or want to play, and they will have to come to you for that. Gain their trust be being gentle, giving them treats, and ensuring you do not trigger them by picking them up/being forceful.

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.

Southborough cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $31.00. 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
