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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Allentown 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 $26.00. 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.
