I'm Allison | Cat Sitting in West Columbia, SC

I'm a lifelong cat lady, beginning with my childhood cat Nikki at the age of 4! My husband and I currently have 7 resident cats (Mini-G, Roscoe, Gladys, Franklin, Quill, Annie, and Wolfie) and a border collie mix (Elouise, aka Weezy). We have been fostering kittens for Pawmetto Lifeline since the Summer of 2019, and I have also volunteered with feline care and feline adoption events at Pawmetto Lifeline. I am a speech-language pathologist and have worked in the world of adult/geriatric speech therapy sin...

Learn More About Allison

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

Growing up, I would pet sit (cats and dogs) for neighbors and friends so I have essentially been pet sitting for about 30 years. About 7 years ago, I started helping friends more with their pets when they went out of town and decided to look into pet sitting professionally. I have been a sitter with Meowtel since 2022. I am proud to say I have several repeat clients, and I always look forward to new clients and kitties!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to know kitties and ensuring pet owners/parents know their kitties are safe, secure, happy, and cared for when they need to be away.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My husband and I currently have 7 resident cats and a revolving door of foster kittens. We have Mini-G, Roscoe, Gladys, Franklin, Quill, Annie, and Wolfie. We also have a border collie mix who is part feline at this point.

Allison was a perfect caretaker for our cat Levi. She was reliable and fed him as directed. She sent me pictures that showed Levi’s love for her!

Allison was fantastic and was very much tuned in to my adult kitty's needs. She handled an emergency for me and was calm and effective throughout the experience. Allison was able to encourage my kitty to eat. I knew my kitty was in extremely good hands the entire time. Thank you, Allison!

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $32.00. 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.
