Learn More About Alisha

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I am blessed to be owned by my beloved tuxedo prince of a cat, Renton. Lucky enough to have been present for his birth, he most certainly chose me now 10 absolutely amazing years ago. He is hands down my heart and soul and has been a big brother figure to many foster kitties over the last decade. His playful and affectionate personality even into his senior years fills my heart with so much love each and every day!

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

Awareness and Attention to detail makes all the difference when it comes to being safe and secure while your kitties are in my care!

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

I prefer a less is more approach with timid kitties. Cats can naturally be aloof, especially with new faces, smells, and sounds. As a fear free certified pet professional, I understand how important body language, voice tone, and energy is when communicating with animals and also when trying to understand what they’re telling us! Sometimes it’s a calm, soft voice. Sometimes a little bit of playing with a toy gently to help coax them, and sometimes it’s just sitting and relaxing untill they feel safe. No matter what interaction style your cat has, I’m excited to get to know them- at their speed!

went amazing!! got great, detailed feedback everyday. My anxious cats typically take two visits to barely come out, but they fully came out and played this time on the first visit! Also got some great advice for cats in general! 10/10 recommend especially for those with anxious kitties

Alisha is a compassionate and confident care-giver, a thoughtful and attentive communicator, and a passionate advocate for animals. When she met my shy, sensitive cat for the first time, she was a calm and welcoming presence, allowing him to feel comfortable approaching her for a pet. I would entrust Alisha with the care of my two cats without question, and I'd recommend her highly to anyone in need of a communicative and reliable cat-sitter!

Frequently Asked Questions

Portland cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $29.00. 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
