Learn More About Sarah

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love cats in general. It could be the most fiesty or the most playful cat. Cats are my favorite animal so I love to build that trust with them so they can relax and play and enjoy some pets. I want to make their experience the most positive :)

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I do not have any kitties right now. My oldest cat Andy passed away early last year. He was 19 years old. I have recently moved to a new town, so I am trying to get acclimated in my home first before adopting a cat 🩷

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

I would like to know what their concerns and expectations are so I can make the reservation a smooth and comfortable experience. If there is something extra needed to help ease their anxiety, I am willing to work with them.

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite cat toy is the fishing wand toy. I love when a cat goes goofy for a flying feather and does some funny acrobatic movements. 😄

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

I always greet new cats and kittens so they know who I am and that I am in their home. If they are timid and anxious I will let them come to me on their own terms, and be very gentle with them with a calm voice. And sometimes give them a small treat (if allowed) to build trust with them.

Sarah was super communicative and made me feel like my favorite lil furrball was in great hands. She sent multiple updates, photos, and even offered to extend the reservation when my flight home was canceled. Will absolutely be hiring her again in the future.

Sarah couldn't have been any more awesome. Took her time to meet our baby Luni and ask questions. Luna is more of a difficult cat and doesn't get along with everyone, but Sarah made sure to work on gaining her trust each day she visited, and by the end of it, Luni was letting her pet her. She played with her, fed her treats, and took some really great photogenic pictures of our baby every day. She was amazing at communicating with us even while we were 6 hours ahead in Europe. Whenever we travel again, we will certainly call Sarah to come be our sitter. Seriously couldn't not recommend more!

Sarah was great! She reached out right after booking and proactively offered to come by and meet my boy Donny. as I explained his care needs (he’s diabetic) she took notes and asked questions. while I was away, she sent lots of pictures and spent time with Donny giving lots of pets. Highly recommend. will definitely book again!

Sarah was the perfect cat sitter. Before our reservation she scheduled some time to come meet our kitties and get a rundown of what care they needed. While we were away we got a ton of updates, photos and videos of our cats getting a bunch of love and treats from Sarah! We came back from our trip to clean litter boxes, clean food/water bowls and our cats happy! She did an amazing job caring for our cats, I would happily reccomend her to anyone needing a sitter!

From the very start Sarah was attentive, communicative and willing to learn. We left very specific instructions for our kitties and she followed them all to a tee. She sent daily photos and updates and even got our babies some treats. She will definitely be our go to cat sitter when we are away.

I cannot begin to describe how satisfied I am with Sarah’s service! I booked her last minute for about a week & was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable my cat was with her, even allowing Sarah to brush her fur. She followed my instructions to a T & I came home to how I left it. The perfectly captured photos of my baby were also a big plus. I will most definitely be booking again in the future!

We had a fantastic experience with Sarah! She took wonderful care of our three cats and made sure all of their needs were met while we were away. From feeding and litter to playtime and attention, everything was handled with care and reliability. We truly appreciated all the thoughtful updates along the way too! It gave us such peace of mind knowing our cats were well cared for and comfortable in their own home. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!

Sarah is an excellent choice for a cat sitter because she's a reliable and trustworthy friend. She has cat sat for many friends, myself included. I never have to think twice about who I can reach out to in a pinch.

Sarah is a very determined and kind person, when you think of someone that will go above and beyond you think of her. I’ve learned so much from her when it came to taking care of my cats. Any future client would be lucky to have her as their sitter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fair Lawn 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 $26.00. 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.
