Learn More About Andrea

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have to cats with my partner. Our calico is named Willow and she is playful and curious and a good snuggle buddy. Agnes is a tabby-torti who is also curious but much more timid. She loves treats and pets and being in whatever room I’m in.

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

I like to stop by and try to meet your cat if they aren’t too shy. I like to see where you keep your food and litter and toys and treats. We can also make a plan for any unexpected emergencies or if concerns arise.

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

Having a particularly anxious or timid cat has prepared me to help your cat as well. If they are food driven offering a treat or churru can help build trust and interest. Sometimes playing will do the same. Often it just takes time and multiple interactions to build connection.

Andrea is a phenomenal pet sitter! She is incredibly reliable, and really loves the cats she interacts with. She always takes the time to play with my cats and really check in on how they are doing, and most importantly she sends great pictures!! My cats miss having her around since her move to South Carolina, she was the best pet sitter we’ve had!

Frequently Asked Questions

Columbia cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, 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. 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.
