Learn More About Veronica

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

I have decades of experience caring for cats. Most recently, since I haven’t had a pet of my own for a while, I’ve been frequently cat sitting for friends. This has included both short visits and overnight stays. I’ve also administered medication when needed. In every situation, I make sure to maintain the safety and security of my clients’ homes while providing consistent care to their furry friends. Every cat has their own unique personality and I make it my mission to be as engaged as they need during playtime, enrichment or quiet companionship time.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I truly enjoy the company of cats. I’ve had a variety of pets over the years, including dogs, bunnies and other exotics, but I’ve always considered myself a cat person. What I love most is watching each cats personality shine through. Some cats take time to warm up and I find it so rewarding when that trust is earned. I also enjoy discovering what kind of enrichment each cat prefers, whether it’s playtime or simply relaxing together.

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

I have a lot of patience and empathy for timid or anxious cats. I always make my presence known calmly and give them time to get comfortable. I approach at their level, move slowly and quietly, and let them come when they’re ready. I pay close attention to body language and respect their need for space and routine. Whether they want gentle socialization or prefer to be left alone, I honor their boundaries. My goal is to create a calm, safe environment so they feel secure. Every visit is on their terms and I’m happy to go at their pace.

Veronica is the most loving, empathetic, and respectful pet sitters that i've ever experienced. While I have a roster of people who I trust to watch my cats, Veronica is always my first choice (and I believe she's my cats first choice as well). The level of detail and care that she puts into loving and playing with my animals in my absence is unmatched. We are truly blessed to have her in our lives!

Veronica is a gem! She is kind, compassionate, attentive, and a true animal lover. I trust her wholeheartedly and it gives me great peace of mind knowing my two fur babies are being so well cared for in her hands. She is very communicative and provides consistent updates (complete with adorable photos - she is a fantastic "paw-parazzi"!). She follows care instructions to the letter and I always come home to calm, happy boys - they have such a great time with their "Auntie Veronica" that they barely seem to notice when I'm gone! I cannot possibly recommend her highly enough - she's a perfect 10/10!

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 $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.
