Learn More About Karen

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I find cat sitting to be relaxing! Once the cat gets to know me and feels comfortable sitting by my side or lap, it’s a quiet peaceful time.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I’ve had cats my whole life. Sometimes one. Sometimes two. Unfortunately my last cat, Mr. Z, passed away so now I’d like to meet yours.

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

Let’s get to know each other! Then tell me about your cat’s personality and eating schedule. Let’s not rush. When you’re comfortable your cat will be less anxious.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Make sure the cat doesn’t get out while opening the door. Cats are so curious. Once inside I’d lock the door. I double check that the house is locked on my way out.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I love ribbons on a stick! It’s so fun to watch the cats chance and jump for the colorful ribbons!

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

I would never rush toward a cat. Especially on the first visit. I’m happy to sit and talk to encourage your cat to come to me.

Frequently Asked Questions

Oaklyn cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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. Meowtel sitters 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 Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes 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 comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
