I'm Lori | Cat Sitting in Summerville, SC

Hi there! My name is Lori and I have had a lifelong love of cats and have had (and still have) cats of my own. My love of cats led me to become a kitten foster with experience from bottle babies on up. In my professional life I have experience as a registered nurse and also previously owned a...

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have had cats since I was a child and have volunteered in shelters as well as fostered cats/kittens. I was co owner of a large pet boarding facility where we boarded cats as well as dogs. Our boarding cats stayed in a communal room (similar to a cat cafe) which was far less traumatic than keeping them in kennels. All told, I have been caring for cats for several decades.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have 3 cats of my own. Neville (tabby) is a former foster, Layla (Siamese mix) is a rescue and Zahra (Maine coon) came to me from a former client who was unable to keep her. I have also been “adopted” by my neice’s one eyed Calico who has decided that I am now her human as well.

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

When cats are particularly timid/anxious I try to just be present with them without forcing them to interact. Calmly sitting near them reading or listening to calm music can reassure them that I am not a threat. When they seem ready, I’ll try introducing some play/toys to get their interest.

Lori is considered a “cat” whisperer to all who know her. She is well versed in cat behaviors, I would not hesitate to avail myself of her services.

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

Summerville cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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.
