Learn More About Leah

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

I have a full-time job with the University of Minnesota, and I do Meowtel for the love of cats and because of my medication niche - it can be so hard to find someone trustworthy for special needs cats. I've been doing Meowtel since May 2025 and I LOVE it. I am particularly skilled with medication administration, including injections, pills, and topical meds. I am professional, attentive, loving, and detail-oriented. My repeat/regulars speak for themselves :) I also regularly cat sit for family and friends when they are out of town, and I’ve been doing so for over 10 years.

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

Do whatever you need to do to feel comfortable leaving your pet and your home with a stranger. Make sure you have all the materials your sitter will need (food, treats, litter, bags). Chatting is good, but writing down the schedule/routine is better. Be very clear regarding what you expect. A lockbox or code is better than giving out keys. Give your sitter the WiFi to ensure on-time communication. It's okay to have additional security measures such as cameras. If the vibes are off at the meet and greet, cancel!

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

Once booked, we schedule a meet and greet. I let the parents give me a tour, greet the cat(s) if they are willing, review any special needs, feeding quirks, litter boxes etc. Then I get keys or code to the house, discuss WiFi, review booked dates and times to ensure accuracy, and explain that I notify comings and goings to the minute until we have developed a rapport. I always send pictures and I always stay for the full booked time unless otherwise agreed upon.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Most holidays I can be available for at least one visit! On major holidays that I’m available I appreciate flexibility in timing, but if I accept a reservation, I will be visiting!

Leah did a wonderful job of taking care of my cats, and she even brought in packages that appeared on the doorstep. I was able to relax and enjoy my trip without worrying because she sent lots of photos every day. I'll be using Meowtel and Leah whenever I go out of town!

Leah was a total pro! We have two older female cats that need to be zoned away from each other and one that needs insulin shots twice a day. We worried the diabetic cat would hide and not get her shots. We had nothing to worry about! Leah's special touch ensured that all shots were given on time. She also sent lots of pics, which was really appreciated. We would book her again in a heartbeat.

It is so nice to have someone like Leah to trust with my cats' care while I'm out of town, especially when I cannot be reached for consultation. Leah was able to troubleshoot autonomously a situation with my diabetic cat such that he remained safe and healthy. She also takes great responsibility for leaving the house and cat supplies in good condition.

Leah did an awesome job caring for our cats while we were gone. My elderly cat is diabetic and I was anxious to leave him for a week, but after meeting Leah during our walk-through and after the pictures and her communication about his food, meds, and injection starting Day 1, I was able to relax and enjoy my time away. The daily updates and pics really put my mind at ease! I also had friends stopping by to socialize with the cats but I loved being able to trust his medical care specifically to a professional.

Leah is just the best! Our grumpy old lady cat normally is really shy around strangers, but not Leah. She even was giving up belly rubs by the end. I can't imagine higher praise.

Leah was fantastic! She was super communicative, asking beforehand before making changes to visit times, etc. She followed all instructions perfectly and sent a lot of pictures, which I appreciated! My fur baby seemed very happy with her and I will definitely be booking her again!

Leah is great! My sometimes-shy cat connected with and trusted her immediately. She was great at communicating and sent me tons of sweet photos of my cat playing; it was obvious my cat felt very comfortable and safe with Leah. I had absolutely no worries while I gone about the level of care and attention she gave my cat. Don’t hesitate to book Leah for your cat care needs! I will be a repeat client for sure :)

Leah was great - she met my kitty beforehand and got to know him a bit. When I was away, she sent me pictures every day and even took my kitty for a walk! It was clear that she was very kind and attentive to him. When I came home, I think he was disappointed that it was me and not her! :-)

Leah was wonderful. In fact she is the third sitter from Meowtel and the three were great and caring. Not knowing how to use Meowtel caused the change each time. I am better at it, I think. Now Leah , did everything asked of her and more. My fur babies are spoiled and she was exceptional with them. She sent photos and my Chase who is a Virginia baby was in awe of her as I saw from the photos.

Leah was a terrific sitter for my two cats. She easily picked up on their routines. I could tell from the photos she sent each time she visited that they were well cared for and enjoying themselves 😸😸. I'd definitely recommend Leah!

Leah is truly a gem when it comes to cat care. She’s calm, reliable, and incredibly knowledgeable—especially when it comes to administering medication or handling more sensitive situations. My cat immediately warmed up to her, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring hands. Leah goes above and beyond, and it really shows. I can’t recommend her enough!

Frequently Asked Questions

Saint Paul cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $25.00. 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.
