Learn More About Adina

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have been cat sitting for friends, family, and employers for several years. Since I love it so much, and I now have the time and flexibility, I finally decided to branch out and make it a part time career!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Kitties just make me so happy and I really miss having pets of my own. I love when I'm able to make a connection and earn the trust of a new cat - it's like making new friends but way cuter.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

Over the past year, I've taken care of my neighbor's two cats whenever he has to leave town for business. Scout & Amelia were both such shy, timid kittens and I've been able to help and watch them come out of their shells. If you're a cat person, you know the joy of finally being accepted by cats who used to run and hide under the bed every time you walked through the door. I've always loved watching them and playing with them but now, when I'm actually asked for pets, it just melts my heart.

Are you usually available during holidays?

While I do spend most holidays with my family, I may still be able to check in on your fur babies so please feel free to ask!

What is your favorite cat toy?

It doesn't matter what my favorite cat toy is - it's all about what gets the kitties excited! Whether it's the simple 'hand moving under a blanket', those little plastic springs or coiled up pipe cleaners, the classic kitty tease, a laser pointer, or any myriad of other toys - they're only fun if your kitty thinks they're fun, too!

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

I give them plenty of space to get comfortable on their own. I'll talk to them about everything I'm doing so they get used to my voice, sit/ lie still on the floor while they check me out, or straight up ignore them b/c some cats are weird like that. If they approach me, I let them smell the back of my hand, but will only pet/ pick them up when they're ready. Them rubbing their head against my hand is usually a good sign that I can try for a head pet. If medications need to be administered, I'm as gentle & quick as possible, calmly tell them how good they are, & give treats after (if allowed).

Our cats absolutely adore Adina. She’s incredibly attentive and gentle with them during her visits, and she always keeps us updated with thoughtful messages and photos. We first hired Adina during a particularly stressful time—our cat Alexa had just been diagnosed with small cell lymphoma and required chemotherapy pills twice a week. Adina was a tremendous help, administering Alexa’s medication precisely as needed and following very specific instructions for handling her litter. Thanks in part to Adina’s care, Alexa is doing much better now. While she still requires her medication, she has regained much of her weight and is clearly more comfortable and at ease. We’re incredibly grateful for the care Adina has given our cats, and we absolutely plan to continue working with her in the future.

Over Christmas, Adina watched over our cat Steinbeck with daily visits over 5 days. Steinbeck has a special diet that requires only wet food as well as some medication in his food, and our automatic wet food feeder has limited slots. Adina did a great job ensuring each meal was prepped with medication when needed, cleaned out the feeder trays, and made sure the litter box was cleaned. She also played with Steinbeck each day (earning his coveted head-butts of approval), with pictures and videos at each visit of playtime and the food setup. We highly advise Adina's services to anyone needing a cat sitter and wanting someone kind and competent.

Adina was amazing! Our shy cat, never seen by outside humans, loved her! Adina got her to meet her at the door. She got her to play. She even let her do a few belly rubs! Highly recommend!!

Adina far exceeded our expectations. We've only had our feral, young cat Sheba for one month. She was very shy and skittish -- a difficult social adjustment for her. Adina knew exactly what to do, won Sheba's trust within two days, and had her playing and freely interacting -- it was like a miracle! She did a wonderful job of taking care of our home while we were away and sent lots of photos and comprehensive updates. You won't have a single worry if you take Adina as your kitty caregiver. On a scale of 1-10, I'd give her an 11.

Response from Adina on Apr 16, 2024 "Thank you so much! This completely made my day! Sheba is a wonderful kitty and it makes me so happy to know that I had any part in her acclimating to housecat life. 🥰 Looking forward to seeing her again!"

Frequently Asked Questions

Verona cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. 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.
