Learn More About Rukana

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

I have been cat sitting for almost a year now and have loved every day of it! I’ve had the pleasure of meeting so many different types of kitties with varying personalities and have loved being given the opportunity to grow within my experiences with them!

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

I have taken care of many sweet cats that have a bit more trouble than others when it comes to meeting new people and always make sure they’re given the same care and attentiveness all the other cats are given. I make sure to give them lots of space and time to feel comfortable with me entering their environment and always make sure to listen to what they’re telling me using their body language so they don’t feel pressured by me in any way.

We are so glad we had Ru taking care of our babies while on vacation. She is great at making them feel comfortable enough to come out and enjoy a treat (they’re very shy). We loved all the videos and pictures she sent with each visit too!

Rukana is an amazing cat sitter. This is our second time working with her. It is wonderful to have peace of mind when traveling halfway around the world, that all is well at home with the kitties. She provided daily updates and videos. Highly recommend and I look forward to booking Rukana again the next time we are away.

Ru is amazing!! I am such a helicopter mom so i was super nervous to leave the kitties with anyone. I also have a RUNNER so it made things even more nerve -racking. Rukana was great with them and had a great technique for preventing slippery little guys from running out of the house. Shes so sweet and responsive. My shy girl ran away from her most days- but not all! And my little ham loved all the attention she gave him. Hes not super big on toys so he loved being spoken to and rubbed. I dont go on trips often but i 100% would book Rukana again!

Rue is the best! I am so glad we booked with her. I’d never left my kitty alone for more than a weekend before, so I was nervous about my ten-day trip outside of the country, but Rue put all my fears at ease. She was super communicative, sent fabulous pics and videos of my happy kitty that brightened my day, and bonded with my sweet girl. Upon return I could tell that she was very well cared for the whole time! Rue was also amazing with little extra things like grabbing the mail and some packages, handling stinky garbage—these little things make such a big difference when you’re thousands of miles away. If Rue is available, don’t hesitate to book with her!

We are so happy to have found Rue as our catsitter. She took care of our kitties for 9 days while we were away and we came back to very calm and happy cats. Our boy Roar was a little shy at the beginning but Rue knew how to win his trust and make him feel comfortable. We got so many videos, photos and updates that gave us peace of mind and let us see how good our kitties were being taken care of. Rue, you are the best!!!!

Ru was amazing and took great care of both my cats, including one who requires oral medication 2x daily! She followed all my instructions perfectly and went above and beyond to ensure the cats were safe and happy at all times. Ru also sent lots of cute pictures and updates daily which helped to make my entire trip stress free. I could tell my cats really loved her too!

everything was smooth and rue was just awesome with our kitty. she’s shy and a bit territorial, but by the end it seemed rue was able to get her to be friendly. Riis is hard to care for and other people who have helped have been scared off by her challenges but not rue. the vids and pics were so helpful along w the long messages!!

Second time booking Rue to watch over our older kitty, and she continues to put our minds at ease. We know he's in good hands when Rue comes over!

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.
