Learn More About Kat

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

I've been cat sitting full time since June 2022.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

In addition to building connections with cool cats, I love giving people peace of mind that their kitties will be well taken care of under my care. It can be stressful trusting a stranger with your cats and your home, and I aim to help my clients feel confident that their cats' needs will be met AND they'll get comprehensive updates and pictures after each visit. I also love the variety of getting to know different people, cats, and places, and maintaining my (often chaotic) calendar is actually really fun to me!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

We have 4 senior girls: Khaleesi, Jadzia, Saffron, & Sriracha. We usually have a rolling rotation of foster cats as well. At one point, we fostered a litter of 6 kittens, so we had TEN cats in our house! Jadzia is great at showing the new cats the ropes, but our other girls are merely tolerant of them.

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

Read profiles & reviews carefully to make sure you get the best fit for what your cats need. Ask lots of questions during the meet & greet once you select a sitter, and make sure you are clear about your expectations for visits. Although I take copious notes at meet & greets, I always appreciate a good checklist!

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

I ask questions before accepting a booking to make sure we are a good fit, and that we're clear on expectations for the timing & duties performed during visits. I created a template I fill out using the provided data in Meowtel about each cat, which I use as a guide during meet & greets to ensure I have all the info I need. I have clients walk me through their cats' routines & answer any questions or concerns they may have.

What is your favorite cat toy?

The Cat Dancer & Da Bird are the best wand toys, and you can't get much better than a small catnip rattle mouse for throwing! I have a bag full of fun toys I'm happy to bring to visits if my clients approve.

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

Shy cats are some of my favorites, and the rescues I volunteer with often give me the cats who need socialization, so I have tons of experience with them. I often softly narrate what I'm doing during visits so they can get used to my presence & voice, and I let them approach me instead of the other way around. Avoiding direct eye contact, I'll let them sniff me and decide whether or not they want to be pet. It's all about letting them go at their own pace!

Kat is such an incredible sitter for our fur babies. We love that she is so knowledgeable about feline behavior, she is a wonderful communicator, and she sends the sweetest pics/videos each day. She went above and beyond for us!

Kat always does such a wonderful job looking after my kitties. My older boy has become quite grumpy with most people but she can always get him to accept some pets and playtime. My other kitty so far has never hidden from her as well! All the pictures and videos really help ease my mind when traveling and my husband even wants to print some of them out since they are so good :)

She is absolutley amazing! First time but not the last! Her initial consult visit was thorough and she got along instantly with my cats! she was super thorough with the photos and letting me know what's happening at the house. I also have to shout out trying to still play with my grumpy cat despite the fact she hid under the bed a lot! 🥰

This was our first time using Kat and we were totally thrilled with her level of service and caring. She responded quickly to any messages we sent her. She went above and beyond in taking care of our boy Calvin who is a shy and skittish cat. Just one day after meeting our 2 cats in a pleasant and professional meet and greet, our old boy Burtrum, passed away, leaving Calvin as our now only cat. He has always had a companion and we were worried about leaving on our trip with him mourning his brother. Kat took the time to give him the love and attention that actually brought him out of his shell. We really appreciate the sympathy cards and flowers sent to us when she found out about our cat passing away. She sent timely updates about Calvin with lots of beautiful pictures and videos that we looked forward to getting each day. She really put us at ease. We were happy to see our boy doing so well in her care. Kat is awesome and is our “go to”, from now on for all our kitty sitting needs.

Our first interaction with Kat was very pleasant, and we'd enjoy having her kitty sit for us the next time we're away. She's very responsive, communicates clearly, and is detail oriented so the house looked great when we returned. We recommend her highly!

After meeting Kat, we felt very comfortable having her cat sit our two kitties, and she didn’t disappoint! She managed to connect with our somewhat skeptical kitty and engage our shy one, capturing their playful times with pictures and videos and sharing her daily experience through Meowtel chat. Thank you, Kat!

Kat is great with our older kitties. We've asked her not to search for our shy kitty as that stresses the kitty out and she has dobe as asked. Kat is also great at taking detailed directions and giving our eldest cat a pill each time. She's clean and kind and we love working with her.

Kat is absolutely amazing! I had just gotten my cat Bo and he was shy and unsure about his new world, but Kat stepped in right away and introduced him to new toys and gave him space to be himself. I appreciate all of her lovely photos and videos and quick updates as soon as she arrives!

All of the Meowtel sitter I had were great but Kat was a whole other level! We got detailed updates, many photos and videos, and she gave each of our kitties the special attention they needed, and they warmed up to her immedietely. She is a true cat whisperer and clearly cares very much about the cats she is watching. Can’t wait to book her again in the future!

I was really apprehensive about going on a week long trip due to my kitty being a shy senior. My vet recommended looking into Meowtel, so after reading all of the reviews for sitters in my area I set up a reservation with Kat. From the very start of the meet and greet, I had a good feeling. Kat showed up on time and actually found my place, which sounds strange, but I live in an apartment complex where everything looks similar and that has been an issue for other things. My cat Willa is elderly, shy, and very particular about people. Kat was patient and moved at Willa's pace. By the end of the meet and greet, Willa actually let Kat pet her! During my trip, Kat sent me several pictures and videos each day, along with a description of how Willa was faring. This was especially important to me, since Willa was diagnosed with kidney disease immediately prior to my trip, and was/is still transitioning to a new diet. It was very clear from the videos that Willa enjoyed her interactions with Kat, which made it easier to relax on my trip. While it wasn't easy to be gone that long, I returned home last night to a happy, healthy, well cared for kitty. I will definitely be booking Kat next time I need a sitter.

The reservation went well, because I had three kittens we had to work together to get the perfect service in place. Kat and the Meowtel representative did an amazing job of putting in place exactly what my kittens needed. And Kat is a wonderful cat person, the family was able to warm up to her in record time, she is very detailed and covered all the bases +. Kat was able to discern my anxiety from being away from my kittens and she ramped up the pictures, which was wonderful. Ha Ha and here i thot i only needed a “they’re fine” while i was away, Kat was able to see thru that very quickly.

Kat is just amazing! She treated our senior kitties with such care and even gave medication to one of our older kitties with no trouble. She was an excellent communicator, taking pictures and responding very quickly. She even left a little kitty toy that one of my girls really loved. She was very nice and easy to work with. I can't recommend her enough. We will definitely be requesting her next time we're out of town.

Kat is amazing! She took care of our cats for three days, and we couldn’t be more pleased. She provided daily reports with photos and videos. She played with the cats and learned about their quirks and preferences. She is a cat expert, and gave us tips to help with behaviors we’ve seen. We love Kat!

Frequently Asked Questions

Eugene cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $27.00. 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.
