Learn More About Laura

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Cat sitting is wonderful because it’s a unique opportunity to connect with each cat's personality and quirks. Every cat has their own charm (some are playful and adventurous, while others are snugglers who prefer quiet moments.) I love discovering how each cat prefers to interact and finding ways to make them feel comfortable and happy. I take great joy in building trust with them. It's rewarding to provide companionship and care while their owners are away, knowing I'm playing a part in their well-being.

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

Look for someone with genuine experience and a love for cats. Ask questions about their background with different cat personalities. It's also important to find a sitter who will take the time to meet your cat before sitting. This helps establish a comfort level for everyone involved. A good cat sitter should also provide regular updates, photos, and be open to discussing any concerns you might have. Most importantly, trust your instincts!

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

My last cat was the grumpiest, most anxiety ridden, scaredy that has ever existed. She loved my husband and me but hated everyone else, especially cat sitters. I had her for 18 years and she just recently passed away. Because of my sweet girl, I know exactly how I wanted a cat sitter to treat her. Taking time to earn their trust, giving them space and allowing them to meet me at their own pace. I avoid sudden movements and dispense gentle treats to build positive associations. And if they don’t warm up, that’s ok too! Just make sure they are fully taken care of and comfortable.

She goes above & beyond by spending lots of time with my cat, snuggling, playing or whatever he needs. Laura loves cats & is reliable, trustworthy and competent administering any meds or special care. I highly recommend Laura, she is a genuine cat lover and will give her best to your cat as well.

I’ve known Laura for over 10 years. She is caring, responsible, and truly devoted to the cats she cares for. I’ve seen her give attentive, loving care to her own cat and to my cat when she’s cat sat for me. Laura is patient, communicative, and handles any situation calmly and thoughtfully. I would trust her completely to care for a cat with love and attention.

Laura is the biggest lover of cats that you’ll ever meet. She is so loving and caring towards all animals, and makes them all feel safe and protected. She’s also a ton of fun and your cat would be lucky to spend time with her! I would trust Laura to look over anyone that I care about, especially my fur babies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Portland cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. 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 we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel has been background-checked and reviewed. Every Meowtel reservation may come 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 may come with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
