Learn More About Manal
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love getting to know each cat’s unique personality. Whether they’re playful, curious, or just enjoy quiet companionship. It’s rewarding to earn their trust and see them feel comfortable and happy in my care. Plus, their purrs and funny antics always make my day!
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes! I’m available to work on holidays and will make sure your cat gets the best care while you’re away. 😊
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I take a patient, gentle approach with timid or anxious cats, giving them space to warm up at their own pace. I avoid sudden movements, speak softly, and let them initiate interactions. Using slow blinks and sitting at their level helps build trust. I also stick to their routine, ensuring a calm, predictable environment. If they prefer hiding, I respect their boundaries while quietly reassuring them with my presence. Over time, I let them come to me, whether through treats, play, or gentle petting, always on their terms.

Manal was wonderful! She was communicative throughout the length of the visit, providing detailed updates as well as documenting Felix’s state. I am particular as a client because I am also a sitter, and Manal paid thoughtful attention to all considerations. My cat is a shy one, and by day three she permitted not only pets by Manal but was open to brushing and play - this is a huge sign of trust, and a big win :) Will absolutely hire Manal again and recommend her for your needs!

Manal was the best! So sweet and the cats loved her immediately. She gave us daily reports on how they were doing with pictures and it made us so much more comfortable knowing we left them in such good hands!

Manal was absolutely wonderful! We were worried about leaving our boys alone for the week while we went on vacation with our family. She put our minds at ease with her updates, pictures and videos of our kitties. She took the time to play with them and make sure they weren't too lonely without us. I can't recommend her enough!

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.
Northville cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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!

So glad to find Manal to take care of our guy while we were away for a long weekend. She made sure she had all the info she needed to be prepared and provided updates along the way. She gave him lots of love and playtime and we’re thankful he could have a new friend while we were away!

Cats and Manal are like peanut butter and jelly. With cats, she has a very deep intuition when it comes to different felines diverse needs and their individual psyches. She embraces them all with a gentle grace and love that’s deeply felt by animal and human alike. She’s a true cat lover and caregiver and should be fully trusted to handle anyones beloved creatures while respecting the homes she’s invited into with trust.

Manal is always the first person I think of when I need someone to take care of my cat. She has been a repeated service for the past two years because of how respectful, attentive, proactive, great at communication, and how loving she is towards cats. She always gives me updates without me asking and that helps an anxious cat parent like me. It also helps greatly that my cat actually likes her a lot, and she isn’t a fan of everyone lol.
