Learn More About Leah

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Alice, Big Al. A rescue colony cat who was being beat up by the other males in his colony. He is now a happy indoor cat. Tiger Lily, Lily. She was fostered then I couldn’t let her go. The cat distribution system was definitely in effect.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, with the possible exception of Christmas, dependent upon location. My schedule is often flexible both during and outside of holidays.

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

Most cats are appropriately cautious of new people, especially if their person is not around. I don’t necessarily seek cats out unless I am concerned about them but rather wait for them to come to me, often at their level and allow them to smell me or my hands first. Gentle, quiet talking as well.

Leah was awesome! On top of food, water, and litter, she went out of her way to make sure our cat was well-loved. The photos and videos were thoughtful and gave us peace of mind that our anxious cat was doing well. This was my first time using Meowtel and Leah made it so easy! We will definitely book with her again.

Leah was very attentive of my furbabies, especially my cuddly cat Layla, and she made sure to provide a safe space for my reserved cat El Gato, who is weary of new people. She was very communicative, followed instructions, and my cats were well cared for. Would definetly book her again as out cat sitter. Thank you!

We had to leave our old, curmudgeonly kind of neurotic most sweet boy ever cat for 20 days. We were concerned. Leah was wonderful. She is always responsive and timely and just great communication, even when we were time zones away. Our guy gets some getting used to and has behavioral tics from a hard life before we adopted him. Leah respected that and rolled with it. And our guy came around to depend on and adore her. Leah is sensitive and empathetic and reliable. We, and our cat, look forward to using her amazing services in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions

Chapel Hill 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 $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. 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.
