Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

What is your favorite cat toy?
Ringo loves to play in his donut with Brucelee and attack their wand. It has a crinkly stuffed toy on the end of it. Cheeto is older and loves her milk jug rings. She will carry them through the house singing her song of victory. Toph is a sunbather. She can often be found napping in a window or sunny spot.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I understand that some cats can be more timid or anxious, especially with a new caregiver. I have many years of experience working with shy or nervous kitties to help them feel safe and comfortable including: --Allowing kitty to set the pace of our interactions --Maintaining a calm, soothing presence and never forcing interactions --Minimizing disruptions and giving the cat space when needed --Offering treats and playtime to build positive associations If your cat requires extra time, care, or accommodations, please let me know so I can ensure our time is as stress-free as possible.

Sarah has always done an awesome job while cat sitting for me when I have been traveling for work and vacation. She provides updates each day, like clean litter box and food, but also fun photos of my cat, Toby, getting lots of attention. I appreciate getting new photos everyday of how he is doing and their time playing together!

Sarah was fantastic in every way! From the initial meet and greet to the end. This was our first experience with a cat sitter and she eased our minds completely. She came and met the kitties and took thorough notes, which I was so thankful for. I was nervous that our shy girl would be terrified the whole time but she warmed up to Sarah really easily! She sent fun pictures of them playing and I knew she got to know their personalities by her descriptions. She followed our directions to a tee. Sarah is warm and kind and when we got home the cats were completely at ease.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a 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 Meet & Greet!

Sara was so patient and kind with helping me make the reservations. My sister has been taken to the hospital by ambulance three times since Nov. I am sure that her cat was tramatized with the confusion of EMTs rushing her away. Sara made Louie feel comfortable from the beginning. Her photos of Louie playing have been a great comfort to my sister. We will forever be greatf grateful for her kindness.

Sarah was incredible with our kitties! It’s clear she has a ton of experience, which made me feel very comfortable with her taking care of all of our cats - especially my older guy with some health concerns. Her updates were thorough and she really took her time making sure the cats had plenty of playtime, attention, and cuddles if they wanted.

Sarah was awesome!! she provided pictures with ever visit and reported on his mood, litter, food & water. Her updates allowed me to be at ease with leaving our Kitty and enjoy our vacation! And keeping Kitty at home I'm sure made it easier on him as well. I'm so grateful hiring Sarah allowed us a stress free vacation! I thoroughly appreciated her meet & greet she scheduled before hand.

Sarah was an awesome cat sitter. She was kind and thoughtful during the meet and greet and truly cared about my kitty Toby! I was a bit nervous being away for almost two weeks, and the daily photos Sarah sent me made my day and showed that my kitty was doing well. I truly appreciate her!

Sarah is great to work with. This was the second time she’s checked on my two boys while I was out. She remembered our usual routine from the first time, and was also flexible with some very last minute changes. She sends updates and pictures every visit, and just overall made it easier for me to enjoy my weekend away, knowing they were in good hands and cared for. We will definitely be reaching out again!

Sarah went above and beyond as she always does. There were a couple kitty messes that she absolutely did not have to clean up, but did anyway. We booked her last minute to come check on our kitties and feed them dinner while we went away for the night and she did that and so much more. She is always kind and caring to our kitties and always goes the extra mile. she is fantastic

We share a love for animals, however, Sarah has always held a special place in her heart for cats; which I have admired. She is a wonderful person and coworker, extremely reliable, caring, and professional.
