Learn More About Nika

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have two cats, Zita and Ozzy. They are different as can be, and endlessly entertaining. I take Zita on walks outside on a leash and harness (sometimes Ozzy comes along in a cat backpack too).

What is your favorite cat toy?

Sometimes it’s the simplest things that end up being a favorite toy. My cat Zita’s favorite toy is hair ties, and they are great for throwing long distance! I also am a fan of the small foam soccer balls, they’re perfect for cats because they’re soft and don’t make a lot of noise.

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

Patience patience patience! With a cat that is timid or anxious I take it very slow, always wait for them to come to me, and build up that trust. My girl Zita is a shelter cat and she was very timid when we first got her. I kept building up trust with her, letting her come to me, respecting her boundaries. It’s incredibly rewarding to make progress with a timid/anxious cat, and totally worth the time it takes.

Nika was awesome catsitter for our 3 cats, one of which required special attention. She was sweet, thorough in following instructions, and sent lots of pictures and messages of their time together. We highly recommend her!

Nika was an incredible cat sitter for my two senior kitties while I was away. She's great with drop-in visits and kept me updated with photos and messages. One of my cats wasn't feeling well and threw up a few times, and Nika went above and beyond to clean it up and gave her extra attention and cuddles. It's so comforting to know my cats were in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend her!

Nika was punctual every day to come feed our cats and they loved seeing her and playing with her every day. She was polite and accommodating when there was an access issue.

I would ask Nika to take care of my cats again in a heartbeat. I loved her detailed notes to me, along with pictures of my cats. It made me feel so good knowing they were being played with and loved while I was away.❤️

Frequently Asked Questions

Laurel cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. 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.
