Learn More About Char
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I always do a meet and greet at least once before starting the job. It's important for the cats to see me with the cat parents, so they know that I am okay and that the parents accept me. I also want to know as many details as possible - from what their typical schedule is like, to what their favorite toy is, to some hiding places around the house where they like to get away. It is the cat's house, I am the visitor and so I am the one that has to work around them.
Are you usually available during holidays?
I think being available on the holidays is one of the most important aspects of my business. Those are the days when people may be traveling out of town or even just the other side of the city and just may need somebody to drop in once or twice while they're gone. Cat moms and dads deserve the peace of mind knowing that no matter where they are or how long they're going to be that someone who loves the cats is going to be there for them.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Cats are great communicators if you are willing to listen. I always let the cat dictate the relationship, and if a cat is timid or anxious, I will just let them come to me. Just sitting quietly while he or she gets an idea of who you are is the most important part of any relationship with a cat - and if that means the cat hides the whole time I'm there, that's okay. As long as I know they are safe and in their favorite hiding spot that is all I need to know.

Erie cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $23.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
