I have been volunteering weekly for a local cat rescue for almost 7 years, cleaning, providing medical care, and socializing. Most recently I have been providing weekly private cat care for the same home with 7 cats for the last 2.5 years. I scoop/deep clean litter boxes, administer medications, and have a reputation for being able to trim most cat’s nails. On average I trim about 15-20 cats per month. My goal is to provide stability and safety for your kitties, through affection at their pace, play, and treats.

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

Safety and security is of utmost importance to me as a pet sitter. I am diligent entering and exiting your home, ensuring I have located your cats prior to exiting. I prefer to present a high value treat before leaving a home to know their location and ensure I can exit. I also check over your cats physical condition (if they allow handling) and notify you immediately if I notice any changes.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available most holidays. We rarely travel during the holidays and spend the bulk of them at home. I would be honored if you trusted me to watch you feline family members during the holidays so you can have piece of mind enjoying time with friends and family.

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

Patience is the most important attribute when getting to know timid or anxious kitties. I see this type of cat often in my rescue volunteerism and they are honestly one of my favorites, earning their trust and affection is priceless. I always allow the cat to set the speed of an interaction and strive to make all aspect of it positive. I often offer high value treats such a freeze dried fish and always Churu tubes. Even if a cat is not accepting of treats you can talk calmly and quietly to them. If there is a preferred toy that can also provide a positive bridge to a new person. I also recognize some cats prefer not to interact with new people, in these cases I still ensure I set my eyes on the cats to ensure health and safety each visit.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

Allentown cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.

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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet!
