I love cats and I have 5, I’ve always had cats growing up, love all of their quirks, I am patient and can be with your cats if they are shy or not the best with new people. I wouldn’t be able to take any sitting at my house, my kitties are too shy lol, but I have a pretty open schedule and can stop by or stay a while, whatever you think will be best! I can play with some kitties or be more tame and just have a lap friend, whatever you need I can do it! :)

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I haven’t cat sit very much, unless you include my cats growing up and my cats now, but I have felt with a wide variety of personalities and can adjust to whatever you need!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 5 kitties, Oreo, she is roughly 16 and sassy about everything, very picky. Lewis, he just has a nub tail and is a lone wolf. Clark, he meows, and meows, very talkative but loves a good pet. George and Allison, Allison is Clark’s sister, but her and George are closer, loving and cleaning eachother 24/7!

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

I think the best thing with cats like that is patience, reading the room and knowing what they need and if they even want any attention.

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!
