Learn More About Karen

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to know each cat's unique personality- whether they're rambunctious, cuddly, or fiercely independent. There's something truly rewarding about earning a cat's trust and making them feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I really enjoy the little moments like hearing a happy prayer, watching a cat chase a toy, or just sitting quietly with them. Of course. I also love knowing that I'm giving peace of mind to the owner.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I would meet with the cat owner and cat to review their routine, preferences and any special needs. We would go over feeding schedules, litter box habits, favorite toys, and any medical requirements. This is a great time for the cat owner to ask questions and discuss concerns while they are away. I'll make sure I understand all the expectations.

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

I would use a very calm manner. I would not make a lot of noise when entering or spending time with the cat. I would respect their space and allow them the time to get to know me.

+Karen was a superb commuicator while she sitted for our 2 Siamese cats, sending us photos and letting us know what they were up to. For the first time since we adopted her, our elderly cat did not continue to "call" from the moment we walked in the door til the next day - Karen must truly be a cat whisperer!

Karen was a fabulous cat sitter. We had a wonderful experience and I couldn’t recommend her enough if you need someone to look after your cat. We will definitely hire her again the next time we leave town.

Karen is completely responsible and the most caring person you could have care for your kitty in your home! She would be my first call when I wanted some one to come over while I was unavailable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Omaha cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, 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 we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel has been background-checked and reviewed. Every Meowtel reservation may come with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 will include 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. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation may come with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
