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.

I truly do not know how we could have gotten through this recent trip without Bonnie! She went above and beyond when we accidentally locked a door that she didn’t have a key for to ensure our Kitty Jax was cared for and loved on. I will honestly never book anyone else as long as Bonnie is available!

Response from Bonnie on Dec 8, 2025 "Wow, this review made my day! I'm happy I could step in to care for Jax, no matter the obstacle. Thank you for your kind words and trust. I look forward to your next booking!"

My partner and I kept procrastinating a vacation because we were worried about leaving our fur babies, who are both former street cats and very skittish. Bonnie is so obviously a cat lover, so knowledgeable about them and so thorough with the daily cat care routine, check-ins and photos, it really gave us a lot of peace of mind so we could enjoy our trip. We were very surprised when Bonnie sent photos of our boy Vincent during many of the drop-ins, who was clearly curious about her enough to not immediately run and hide as he usually does with strangers. We also appreciated that she brought in some deliveries left on our porch and wheeled out our trash bins. We would absolutely hire her again!

Response from Bonnie on Nov 4, 2025 "Thank you so much, Amber! I'm thrilled you had peace of mind on your vacation. It was a pleasure caring for your home and kitties, especially curious Vincent! I'd love to sit for them again anytime."

Bonnie was very nice and easy to work with! She did great with my adult cat Charlie and my older cat Goblyn. Goblyn is a bit of a hider so she didn’t come out much during Bonnie’s visit but she enjoyed the treats and wet food left behind! The Thank You note Bonnie left was completely unexpected and heartwarming and she was able to perform above and beyond, even communicating everything through the Meowtel app and adapting to extra treats that I did not discuss during our meet and greet. Bonnie stayed all 45 minutes (maybe even a couple minutes more) and watched Cat TV with Charlie, and turned everything off back as she found it. I will only be using her services in the future. Thank you Bonnie!

Response from Bonnie on Nov 15, 2025 "I'm so glad it was a good experience for you and the kitties! Charlie and I had a lot of fun and I'd be delighted to sit for these two again any time. Thank you, Seb!"

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!

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!

Response from Bonnie on May 8, 2025 "Hi Elise, thank you so much for your kind words! Jax is such a sweetheart and I genuinely enjoyed spending time with him. His affectionate nature and cute little meows made him a joy to care for!"

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!

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 the services they offer, 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
