As an aloof, introverted, vegetarian, who is easily overstimulated; I think I might be 3/4’s cat. I am an aspiring cat whisperer - I speak a lot of ‘Cat’, but I am also always striving to learn more ‘Cat’.

I have spent most of my adult life, at home, with my cats. I have watched a lot of movies and read a lot of books, with a purring cat on my chest or in my lap. I am a side sleeper, but for 12 years, I slept on my back; because my cat Paprika demanded to sleep on my chest.

I currently am fostering cats with a few local shelters that work with cats that sometimes are overlooked for adoption.

While cat sitting, I do all things requiring thumbs - food, water, litter, etc. I am respectful of cats’ autonomy, while also providing any needs of human interaction and connection - play, pets, brushing, etc.

Learn More About Sarah

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available most holidays. I like to take the path less traveled, which means I avoid traveling during holidays.

What is your favorite cat toy?

We have a robot snake. It has a rechargeable battery, and it slithers. It stops slithering when ignored, but will slither again when batted or pounced.

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

I have the same personality, so I feel an affinity with them. I tend to be in observational mode most of the time. It is okay if they like to be curious observers, and I would aim to help them feel comfortable enough to become curious participants.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

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.

Asheville cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. 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!
