I'm Stephanie
Cat Sitting in Albuquerque, NM
I am well equipped with the patience and caring heart t... I love animals and that comes from having a lot of animals myself. I have a bunny, 4 dogs and 2 cats. However, between you and me, cats are my favorite. They just have their own personality and their own cute ways of loving us. I have had my cat, Whiskers, for 11 years and my other cat, Tigger, close to a year. Life is boring without a cat.
I am well equipped with the patience and caring heart to take care of your fur baby. Additionally, I have worked at Petsmart for 5 years and with that I was able to gain experience as well as plenty of knowledge about pets and their needs. By talking to pet parents, I’ve come to the realization that we all just want the best for our pets and to give them all of our love. With me, your fur baby will be very well attended and loved as if you were there.

This was our second time hiring Stephanie, and we are SO glad we found her! This was the longest we've ever left our kitties (almost two weeks), but it was a load off our minds knowing Stephanie was caring for them. She sent us daily updates and photos/videos, which we loved receiving. She also helped keep the house running smoothly by bringing in the mail, bringing in the trash, keeping things neat and clean, etc. Even the litter boxes still smelled fresh by the time we got back! Most importantly, we knew we could trust Stephanie with our precious kitties! We could tell they truly enjoyed seeing her when she came over, and they were healthy and happy when we came home! We will definitely keep hiring her for all our kitty-sitting needs!

We were THRILLED with Stephanie's service! This was our first time hiring her and meeting her, and she's just so sweet and personable! She really took the time to get to know all four of our kitties and their quirks, and she gave us a full and detailed report on how they were doing every time she checked in on them. I really enjoyed receiving her messages and photos she sent us! Stephanie took great care of our kitties and our home (she even watered our plants!) and we felt completely at ease knowing she was caring for our fur babies. She's extremely punctual, communicative, and trustworthy! And definitely a natural when it comes to caring for cats! I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a great new sitter, and we will definitely hire Stephanie again! Our kitties are looking forward to seeing her again too!

Stephanie is a fantastic cat person. I was nervous about leaving my anxious cat, a stray who came to my door, for the first time. She doesn’t trust easily and she’s on several medications. Stephanie had a consistent, gentle approach that won her over. She is very kind and patient and paid attention to all details with wonderful photos and updates. I would recommend her to anyone with cats they love, and she was great with the medications. Stephanie is a caring and kind person.

Oh, wow! Stephanie met and exceeded my expectations!! This is coming from a paranoid and anxious cat mom. My little girls (ages 5 and 6) were relaxed and happy when I returned home. Stephanie was so patient and accommodating with my 14-year-old neurotic and skittish girl, that she handled my being gone really well!!! I highly recommend Stephanie and will be calling her for future sits.

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.
Albuquerque cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $22.00. 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 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. 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 free Meet & Greet!

I don't even know where to start! Stephanie sent me daily pictures and videos of my cat Snowflake. She left us a sweet card and gifts for Snowflake too. She also watered my plants which I truly appreciate. She cuddled with Snowflake, fed and cleaned her litterbox. I came back home to a very happy kitten! We missed her so much. I would absolutely ask Stephanie to kitty sit for us again!

We've had some of the worst trouble finding a good cat sitter over the years, and maybe it's because the last few caused so much anxiety that I'm so relieved and honestly elated that we found Meowtel and specifically Stephanie. She's such a sweet and warm person and Mellow liked her from the beginning. He's older and can be grumpy when we're gone and Stephanie is very understanding when he's had enough attention, or when he decides to be picky with his food. I'm so happy she's there to give him snuggles and belly rubs when we can't, and It's easier to be away when I know she'll be there to look after him and check on the house. I could go on and on about how great our experience with her have been. Choosing Stephanie was the best choice for us.

This is the fourth time we’ve hired Stephanie, and it went better than ever! She took such good care of our three kitties, they are happy and healthy and not at all anxious after we were gone for a week. We appreciate Stephanie so much, she put us at ease and took care of our kitties as if they were her own. She distributed medication, and fed our very particular cats in the perfect way. We all love Stephanie!
Belinda

Stephanie is the best! This is the third time she’s watched our kitties, and by far the longest trip we’ve taken away from them for years and years. We were nervous that the longer time period away would be hard on our cats, but when we got home, they were perfectly wonderful! They greeted us and were extra lovey, but we’re not anxious or distressed. They love Stephanie too! She sent updates and photos, and it’s such a relief to see their furry faces when we were so far away.
Jennifer

Stephanie is extraordinary! She did precisely what I asked, and sent me full reports and photos at the end of each visit, while I was away. She is conscientious, knowledgeable, and caring. I felt reassured that my sensitive furry friends were in good hands. Though it was a first time to have a cat sitter, my two scaredy cats warmed up to her over the course of my trip. Stephanie took extra care to make it so. I am relieved to know that I and my kitties have her to turn to if I should ever need her. I recommend her highly.

Stephanie was incredibly professional, warm, kind and took good care of my fur baby. I was grieving and headed to an out of state funeral and she was incredible at putting my mind at ease so that I did not have to worry over my fur child. She checked in daily with me to give me updates and send pictures which really helped me to cope while I was away. She's the best! I highly recommend her!
Laura

Stephanie did a great job! Any anxiety I had about being away was immediately relieved after the first visit.

She was a great sitter for my rambunctious kitten and my senior citizen cat!
Rebecca

Great meet and greet, punctual, and discussed feeding, etc and her cats on her bio. She kept me updated with text and pictures of 1 of my cats as the other is shy. ( asked for pics of my plants which she sent) Felt relaxed that my fur babies were cared for. Would definitely recommend Stephanie.
Sonja

Stephanie made a very good first impression with me and my two girls. Knowing that they each felt comfortable with her took off some of the edge that comes with leaving them. Her daily text check-ins were so warmly received. The cats don't seem to be holding the regular grudge now that I'm back.

This is our second time having Stephanie watch our three cats, and I didn’t think we could be more happy than the first time, but I was wrong! Stephanie put our minds at ease while we were away from them, and we came home to very happy kitties. I wouldn’t be surprised if they wanted us to take more trips, so they can get visits from Stephanie more often. :)

I'm absolutely THRILLED with how Stephanie took care of our indoor and outdoor kitties. She was very accommodating on times of day, and was super-caring with all of the cats -- even the shy ones. I highly recommend her services AND I'll definitely be working with her when I go out of town again.

I can’t stress enough how much we appreciate her and how well she takes care of our cats, including administering medication and lots of cuddles!

Stephanie was exceptional in every way. We are a multiple cat household and she did not miss one step or detail with instruction on how we care for our animals. While we were away, she kept in constant contact with messages and pictures. Assured us that the feedings and cleanings went just how we like things done and was a joy to communicate with. We are so grateful to Stephanie for taking care of our beloved cats the way she would care for her own fur babies! She left us a cute message with a treat for them at the end of her sittings. We would highly recommend Stephanie and will be using her for all our sittings in the future.
