Learn More About Sara

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to meet new cats and their parents! It's been a great way to meet new cats without adding to my home (my 3 keep me plenty busy as is)! :)

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I’m lucky to share my life with three amazing girls: Lyanna, Arya, and Sansa. Lyanna and Sansa are Nebelung kitties, with their stunning mist-like, long grey fur. Arya, on the other hand, is a speckled dilute calico with a huge personality that always keeps things interesting. I absolutely adore my girls and love sharing pictures of them!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

When looking for a cat sitter, make sure they have experience with cats and can provide references or reviews from past clients. It’s a good idea to meet them first to see how they interact with your cat. You’ll also want someone reliable and can handle emergencies, so ask how they’d deal with that. Don’t forget to go over your cat’s specific needs, like medication or special care, so they’re prepared!

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

My approach to cat care goes beyond just feeding and petting. I believe in building strong, trusting relationships with both the cats I care for and their owners. I always take time to meet with pet parents beforehand to understand their cats’ unique needs, personalities, and preferences. This personalized approach ensures I can deliver the best care possible. I’m also a firm believer in preparing for all scenarios—both the best and the unexpected—by gathering all necessary information and planning ahead. Life is full of surprises, and I want to be ready for whatever comes up to make sure your kitty is safe and comfortable.

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

I ensure the safety of both the cats and the home by familiarizing myself with the environment, securing windows, doors, and any potential hazards. I always respect the cats' space, following their routines and letting them come to me when they're ready. I keep their food, water, and litter boxes clean, and I’m always mindful of their comfort and well-being. I stay alert to any changes in their behavior or health and keep emergency contact info on hand, including the nearest vet location, just in case. I also make sure I can locate each kitty during every visit—everyone’s accounted for! Throughout the sitting, I stay in touch with the owner, providing updates to keep them reassured.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I’m usually available for most holidays, so if you have any specific dates in mind, feel free to message me with any inquiries. I’m happy to help whenever needed! :)

What is your favorite cat toy?

I absolutely love playing with feather toys—it’s always a hit with kitties! There’s something about watching them leap and pounce that never gets old. My own cat, Sansa, is particularly skilled with them—you'd think she was auditioning for Cirque du Soleil with the acrobatics she pulls off. It’s one of my favorite ways to bond with her and bring out her playful side.

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

I believe that animals, like humans, deserve respect, patience, and understanding. When interacting with cats, I prioritize their comfort by never pushing boundaries or rushing them to interact. Instead, I approach them gently and give them space to come to me on their own terms. I make a point to not disrupt the normal day to day for them, allowing them to feel safe and in control of their environment. To create a calming atmosphere, there have been times I have played soothing music when in their home—sometimes it’s as much for me as it is for them, helping me stay grounded and keep any stressed energy at bay.

Sara was awesome! I had such peace of mind on my vacation knowing I could count on her. She kept in touch each day and sent me updates and photos of my kitties. She took good care of our fur babies! I will absolutely have Sara cat-sit again in the future!

I discovered this app and Sara on very short notice before my wedding. She was able to meet my cats and me the day before we left! She gave updates, sent pictures, scooped litter, refreshed the food and water bowls; everything I could have asked her to do! Such a lovely experience and I knew my kitties were in good hands. I've been recommending her to all my cat owner friends in the area

Frequently Asked Questions

Springdale cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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.
