Cat Sitting in Las Vegas, NV

My name is Heather. I am 54 years old and cannot remember a time in life when I haven’t had feline companions. I am vegan and have been for 10+ years. I have lived in Las Vegas since 89’. I have been involved in local animal rescue work for 30 years and founded an animal welfare nonprofit organization focused on advocating against the dog and cat meat trade in SE Asia. I currently have several rescued cats as well as rescued ferals. I have cared for countless felines over... My name is Heather. I am 54 years old and cannot remember a time in life when I haven’t had feline companions. I am vegan and have been for 10+ years. I have lived in Las Vegas since 89’. I have been involved in local animal rescue work for 30 years and founded an animal welfare nonprofit organization focused on advocating against the dog and cat meat trade in SE Asia. I currently have several rescued cats as well as rescued ferals. I have cared for countless felines over the years with ailments ranging from simple colds to feeding tubes. I am comfortable and experienced in administering medications of all types including sub-q fluids. I know how stressful it can be to go out of town and worry that your babies won’t be cared for properly and I pet sit in order to help provide peace of mind. I often prefer the company of animals over people so spending time and learning the personality of a cat, is an enjoyable and welcomed part of my day.

Learn More About Heather

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Cats versus dogs will enjoy laying on your lap and listening to you read. If young (or just young at heart) they may be playful and want to swat some feather toys. Ohers may prefer their solitude and will come to you on their time. Their personalities are endless and are fun to try and figure out.

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

Ask the questions that you may feel are "silly". Ensure that you communicate your expectations. It is your home and your family member that needs cared for. Being able to trust someone in your home and to care for your furry baby is nerve-wracking but can ultimately be easy if you find the right person to help you.

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

I am overly cautious. I had a terrible experience with a cat sitter in 2003 and as a result, I ensure I know where the cat(s) are before leaving the home. I never leave outside doors opened. I always give clean, fresh water and make sure dry food is available. I take care of your home and pet like I would my own.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes I tend to be available during most holidays. I have pets myself so going away requires advanced planning. I recognize the need for dependable pet care during the holidays so I hope to be able to provide that.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I think my favorite toy is the fishing pole stick with the replaceable toys on strings - ranging from feathers to ribbons and bells. Cats love trying to catch it. It not only engages them but also provides exercise.

This was our first long trip away from our two 1-year-old cats, Yumi and Yoshi, and Heather gave us complete peace of mind. She sent thoughtful daily updates with the sweetest photos (seriously, she takes the best pictures!) and always kept us informed about how they were doing. It’s obvious she genuinely cares for animals, and our cats absolutely love her. During our trip, our Litter-Robot alerted us to an issue, and Heather was kind enough to stop by quickly to take care of it, which we really appreciated. Heather is responsible, reliable, friendly, and treats our cats like they’re her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be booking with her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets! ❤️🐾

The absolute BEST new "Kitty Auntie" in town! 5 Stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heather was a total dream-come-true for my two rescues, Daisy and Tiger Win! I was away for a week and she officially became their favorite new family member. Every single day, I looked forward to the daily photo updates she sent. Not only did she strictly stick to their morning schedule, but she went above and beyond—she played with them, showered them with love, and even gave them a major spa day! She brushed them so thoroughly that she managed to get all of their heavy winter coats out. Tiger Win was in absolute heaven and completely fell in love with her! When my husband and I walked through the door early in the morning after our long trip back from Florida, we were greeted by two incredibly happy, healthy, and relaxed cats. Their food bowls were perfectly managed, and their litter boxes were pristine. Heather is professional, incredibly kind, completely reliable, and a true animal lover. She even safely returned my key on the final day of the booking without a single hitch. I can’t thank her enough for giving me total peace of mind for my birthday trip. If you want your cats to have a 5-star vacation of their own while you are away, I highly, highly recommend Heather! We will definitely be booking her again! 😻❤️

We planned our first vacation since getting our new kitty and went to Meowtel to find a sitter. Heather was our first choice and it worked out great. Loki had become a fussy eater and Heather managed to keep him healthy and happy. On our first day back we found him going to the front door at her usual visit times!!

Heather is wonderful as always! I had ants crawl in to the cat food while I was gone, and she moved and cleaned everything up.

Heather did a great job with our kitty! She sent detailed updates every day, took the cutest photos, and helped keep our cat’s food and litter box areas nice and clean while we were out of town. We highly recommend Heather and plan to book her services again on our next trip out of town.

Heather took incredible care of our cat while we were out of town. She was extremely professional and friendly. Communication was great, with Heather reaching out for clarification when needed and updating us after each visit. Our cat has medical needs and Heather was able to cover all of our special requests. We will absolutely request her services again and I enthusiastically recommend her.

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.

Las Vegas cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
