What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

The cats!! I am always happiest around cats!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently reside with two outstanding cats. Lily is my beautiful 14 yr. Old tortie. She can play a mean game of ping-pong using crinkly mylar balls. Her paw to eye coordination is outstanding. Pokey is my 6 yr. old sidekick. When he was a few weeks old he was rescued from a storm drain by two amazing people. Without them Pokey may never have entered my life. He is my shining star.

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

Look for a person that is patient. Cats can be shy or skittish around new people. A good sitter knows how to give them space and let the trust build naturally. A person that is observant and intuitive and will notice subtle changes in a cat’s behaviors. (ie: eating less, unusual hiding). Keep lines of communication open. Always be prepared for an emergency. You want a person that will be respectful to your cats and to your home at all times. Please make sure that they actually like cats and understand purring, hissing, and everything in between. If your cat needs meds, the sitter should be confident and experienced in administering them. Calm Under Pressure Knows how to handle unexpected situations, such as a sudden escape. Probably everyone's worst nightmare. Most of all they must be a huge lover if cats!

Angela did an amazing job taking care of our cats! Her updates were very detailed, and she even included pictures. We came home to a clean house with well-fed, content cats. We appreciate Angela’s hard work, and I would absolutely hire her again when needed!

Angela is spectacular in all ways! At our meet & greet, she brought the kitties toys that are shaping up to be new favorites! She sent plenty of photos of our babies and kept us giggling with the sweetest pics! The kitties loved her and were soooo well cared for during our time away 😸 Our home was tidy when we returned, and Angela even left a sweet holiday card! Her knowledge, compassion, communication, and care made us feel so comfortable and clearly made the kitties feel safe! Thank you so much, Angela! We will absolutely be repeat clients!! 😸

Angela took such good care of my cat while I was gone! She not only sent me amazing pictures and updates everyday but did a great job of entertaining Zag and keeping my apartment clean around the litter box where Zag tends to get litter everywhere! I highly recommend her services!

Angela was great and even got my very shy cat to come out for pets and treats! she went above and beyond by checking our mail and pulling our trash cans in so we didn’t have to miss a week of trash service while we were away!

Frequently Asked Questions

Columbus cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. 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. 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.
