Hey! (⁠=⁠^⁠・⁠ェ⁠・⁠^⁠=⁠) I’m a true cat lover who understands that every cat has their own unique personality and needs.

I’m patient, gentle, and attentive. I will always take the time to let cats warm up to me at their own pace. Whether your cat is playful and energetic or shy and independent, I’m happy to adjust to what makes them most comfortable.

Whatever your cat needs, I’ll do my best to provide it. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and plenty of attention.
Whether that means playtime or just sitting nearby so they don’t feel alone. My goal is to make them feel cared for and relaxed while you’re away. :)

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

I would tell them to look for someone who is patient and truly understands that every cat has a different personality. It’s important to find a sitter who won’t rush your cat and is willing to adjust to their routine and comfort level

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite cat toy to use is a wand toy with feathers on the end. I love how it lets cats chase and jump around while still keeping a little distance so they can still be comfortable. I live how it brings out their playful side (⁠=⁠^⁠・⁠ェ⁠・⁠^⁠=⁠)

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

I handle anxious or timid cats by being patient and moving at their pace. ^-^ I never force interaction and always give them space to feel safe. I’ll sit quietly, speak softly, and let them come to me when they’re ready. If they prefer to hide, that’s completely okay. I’ll still make sure their needs are taken care of and keep the environment calm.

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!
