Learn More About Erin

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I currently have one cat named Mango. I adopted her three years ago through a great local organization called Astoria Cat Rescue.

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

Trust is the most important factor when choosing a cat sitter. Cats are family, and you are inviting someone into both your home and your cat’s safe space. I would encourage cat parents to look for a sitter who truly understands cats and respects that each one has their own personality, boundaries, and routine. Lifelong cat people often recognize when to engage and when to give space, which is especially important for keeping visits low-stress. Clear communication, following instructions closely, and providing updates are also key so you can feel confident that your cat is being cared for thoughtfully while you’re away.

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

When working with a new cat parent, I like to start with a conversation to learn about their cat’s routine, personality, and any quirks or preferences. I confirm the basics up front, such as visit timing, where supplies are kept, and anything they want me to prioritize. I also make sure I have important information like their vet or preferred emergency vet, as well as how reachable they will be while they are away and if there is a backup contact. I ask how much communication they would like during visits so updates feel reassuring and helpful. My goal is for the owner to feel fully comfortable before they leave and for their cat’s routine to stay as normal as possible.

Erin was so professional and reliable! She took excellent care of Ellie and Chopper sent regular updates and photos, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We came home to happy, relaxed felines 🥹

Frequently Asked Questions

Astoria cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
