Learn More About Teresa

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have one baby girl named Yumi. She is so sweet and gentle and my entire world. She makes me want a second cat.

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

I ensure that there is nothing that can harm them such as string, twist ties, hair ties, etc. Check for fire hazards like a hair dryer or a stove. Ensure windows and doors are locked. If there are multiple cats, ensure that there are no wounds/scratches.

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

For cats that are timid and anxious I try my best to make sure I’m creating a safe space. I attempt to allow them to approach me and smell me. Also, I try to engage in play to build some familiarity.

Teresa was truly a lifesaver! I had a last minute holiday trip and was scrambling to find care for my cat, Mia. Teresa made the whole experience stress free and kept me updated daily with the cutest photos of my cat Mia! She did a fantastic job, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. 10/10!

Teresa went above and beyond in caring for my cat Ron. Ron felt so comfortable with her, he made biscuits on her! I would definitely recommend her as a cat-sitter.

Teresa is a quiet and effective cat sitter. She prioritizes the cats needs during her time cat-sitting and does not give attention to other distractions in the house. She can communicate well with clients.

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 $24.00. 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.
