Learn More About Bonnie

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

I've been cat sitting professionally for about 3 years, and did casual pet sitting for friends and family prior to that.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Well, it's the kitties! Every cat I meet is different from all the others, and getting to know their personalities is rewarding and entertaining to say the least. It's especially exciting to win over a shy cat who usually hides from strangers - I've even gotten nose boops from a couple of them!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two kitties, my lovely ladies Becky and Judy! They are young and lots of fun. Becky was rescued from a neglectful situation and survived FIP, and Judy was rescued from a Leavenworth shelter at 8 months old.

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

I think it's good for new pet owners to listen to the advice of others, but ultimately it's important that they figure out what works for them, their pet, and situation. All people and cats are different! Learning what can be dangerous to a cat is paramount, of course, but beyond that, understanding cats' enrichment needs and learning to watch for signs of health problems should be next on the list. If you do your best, the cat will appreciate it!

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Getting to know the cats and their habits is the most important thing. If there is an escape artist in the house, knowing her whereabouts and being prepared to block any escape attempts before opening outside doors is paramount. There are many cat toys that should only be used with supervision, so I always put those away when our visit is done as well. Beyond these, it's important to understand feline body language and vocalizations to know when a cat may be in pain or experiencing some other discomfort, fear, or dangerous situation.

What is your favorite cat toy?

Well of course, it's whatever the cat likes best. Strings and laser pointers are usually pretty big hits, but mine love the fake mice and the catnip banana!

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

The best gift you can give a shy cat is invisibility! Avoiding eye contact and showing them through body language that you are not a threat can often convince them to engage with you, but it's best not to force it unless absolutely necessary! If it's a cat you're going to see repeatedly, they might just decide you're not so bad in the end.

Jeff

Bonnie was amazing! She was very responsive from day 1 and took extensive notes about our two cats during the initial meeting. As a cat owner, she is very in tune with what cats need and may want and understands that they are all a bit different. She sent pics and videos as well as messages while we were gone and proved trustworthy for us and our cats. Unexpectedly, she offered to bring in packages and was quick to help with bringing in the trash and recycle bins as we were gone on trash day. We plan to use her anytime we need help with our fur babies!

Elise

Bonnie was the perfect sitter for our cat Jax. This was our first time searching for a finding a sitter and I could not have asked for a more caring, detail oriented and invested person. Bonnie cared about Jax above taking care of the daily necessities. She took interest in his personality and met him exactly where he was at. She used all of the time to handle was was necessary but also went above and beyond with treats and consideration for him by opening the window, giving him attention snd affection, whatever he required at the time. THANK YOU BONNIE!

We were more than happy with Bonnie! She was so thorough and took such great care of our kitten sisters! She provided great updates and even washed a floor mat for us when one of our stinkers urinated on it. We would highly recommend Bonnie and will be using her again in the future!

Rebekah

Did a fine job feeding and playing with the cats while we were away. It was very strange when she told us it looked like someone had been in our house, but then when she sent pictures of what had been moved, it was very obvious it was just the cats moving things around like cats so. Really scared us for a minute with that. She did tell us that she scooped litter boxes every day, but they did smell really bad when we got home.

Meowtel-verified reservation with drop-in visits
Response from Bonnie on Feb 21, 2025 "Hi Rebekah, sorry for the scare! I will always err on the side of caution with unusual in-home activity. And yes, even with daily scooping, I found the wood grilling pellets underperformed in odor control compared to compostable cat litter."

Frequently Asked Questions

Kansas City cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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.
