Learn More About Emma

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

I have 15 years of cat sitting experience, for friend & family and strangers through friends-of-friends and music clients. I’ve done several full summers of cat sitting for a family on my street, caring for the cats for a few months at a time. I grew up taking care of our family cat, and have had my own best friend MJ for the last 10 years! I really enjoy house sitting and cat sitting, and I am happy to bring in the mail, water the plants or the garden, and other maintenance tasks while I am caring for your animal.

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

I like to meet the parents and the cat(s) in person and make sure everyone is feeling comfortable with the arrangement! It feels best to me to begin our relationship face to face, and for your cat to see me as someone known to you. I think it is always helpful to see the home and where everything is stored and places in person. I tend to get more information about your cats favorite toys/times of day to play/places to hide that way. However, I am also more than happy to take instructions online only or just meet over the phone if needed.

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

I grew up with a very anxious house cat. We think she was neglected and abandoned before we rescued her. It took me about 3 years to develop our relationship to the point where she would let me pet her for more than a few seconds at a time. I accomplished this by being calm, slow, and and quiet in her company. I always acknowledged her presence but never approached her too quickly. When giving food and treats, I left her plenty of space to get to them, but still remained nearby without moving or making too much noise. I never tried to force her out of hiding (except to help get her to necessary vet appointments). Eventually she knew I was someone who would not surprise her or torment her, and she even eventually took to sleeping on my bed with me in the winter.

Emma is kind, caring, and reliable. She is confident and calm under pressure and in an emergency. I always know that my two cats are in good hands when I leave them in her care.

Emma is my favorite cat sitter! She makes sure to spend quality time with my cats, play with them, and make sure they get fed separately (the littlest one loves to eat her sister’s food). And of course she sends the best pictures. My cats trust her immediately and love to snuggle with her, even the one that isn’t as much of a snuggler :)

Frequently Asked Questions

Nashville 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.
