A few include music, scented toys , approved treats and more. I take my cue from the cats themselves. How quickly and the way they want the relationship to progress. As we all know you can't force a cat

I pay attention to the house as well. I make sure everything is in proper order. If any problems come up I will let you know and do my best the fix them

I feel communication is key. When your away from your littles it is very stressful. I send lots of pictures and updates
My goal is to make the cats and thier family comfortable happy and safe

Penny is absolutely wonderful and has become our go-to cat sitter. I believe this is the fifth or sixth time she has cared for Kobi and Loki, and at this point she feels like family. She is always on time, sends great photo updates, asks questions when needed, and responds promptly. What really stood out this stay was that our tuxedo cat, Loki, who is usually very skittish, became so comfortable with Penny that he spent afternoons relaxing with her on the porch. Both cats clearly adore her. As an added bonus, she leaves the house clean and tidy every time. We trust Penny completely and will continue booking her whenever we travel. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Penny was really great, very communicative, very thorough. She was pleasant to be around on a human level and the cats enjoyed her too! We have a very shy cat that won’t come out for anyone else ever and she came out to eat breakfast for Penny right away. She plays and brings toys for different levels of stimulation. Penny really follows through with the instructions and genuinely loves cats! Would recommend Penny to anyone!

Penny is amazing. No one likes to leave their babies alone at home to go away. But knowing she is there playing cat songs to my “fraidy cat” cat and drawing him out is heart warming and makes it just a little easier. Thank you Penny! You rock.

I wasn’t going to comment anything about this caretaker at first but after the upset this has caused my cats I feel people should know. We were gone for four days and had her visit twice for 20 minute visits. I felt the price was alright given they would receive excellent care. After an initial visit after we gave her instructions she texted us questions about things that were already discussed. She stayed about 45 minutes both times, which was out of kindness to make the cats comfortable however is a bit unsettling now. The apartment reaked of cat litter when we returned and it did not appear like she did it at all. our toilet was also full of (I’m assuming human?) poop which is just odd. The main concern is that now both of my cats have fleas. they do not go outside and have not ever had this issue. We have needed to vacuum and clean all surfaces multiple times and bathe our cats however with it not resolving today we will also be needing to get medication which is costly

Penny took such great care of our buddy, Mo. She was super quick with her responses and genuinely cared about how he was handling us being gone. He is diabetic and for the first time I felt confident leaving him. Penny was great about his shots, he was in great spirits when we got home from our trip! There were even a couple days that she stayed a little bit longer with him because he seemed lonely, and once just because she said she had some extra time and really enjoyed Mo’s company. She even left him a cute little toy that he really enjoyed playing with while she was here. We will definitely be booking her again!

Our 2 senior cats were in excellent hands with Penny while we were out of town for a few days. She gave us updates regularly and provided so much love and attention to our boys. I especially felt comfort knowing she has experience with diabetic cats, as one of ours is. Our boys say "thank you" and look forward to seeing her again on our next trip!

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.

Gastonia cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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 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!
