I'm Holly
Cat Sitting in Arlington, TX
I work full-time for a grocery store as a back room receiver. I also work as a freelance writer and copy editor; I’ve had essays and informational articles published across the internet and in several magazines. I've been writing book reviews for more than a decade... I have been a cat owner for my entire life and my life would feel incomplete without a feline companion or two! I currently have four kitties--Freddy, Catnip, Loki, & Freya-- whom I adopted through rescue agencies. Freddy is old and grumpy (but so, so sweet); Catnip is the awkward teenager and loves annoying his big brother; Loki and Freya are the babies, full of energy and always ready for cuddles!

I also work as a freelance writer and copy editor; I’ve had essays and informational articles published across the internet and in several magazines. I've been writing book reviews for more than a decade. I’m also a full-time parent to two kids.
Due to my work schedule and my children's school schedules, I generally do visits between 4:00 pm and 9 pm on weekdays. On weekends, I am available all day but generally prefer morning visits.
I prefer to work in neighborhoods close to me. Anywhere in Arlington or Mansfield is great, but I am willing to drive up to 15 or 20 minutes for a client.
I will wash my hands frequently during every visit with your cat, and I always carry hand sanitizer. I will wear a mask for the duration of my visit if that's your preference (though I am fully vaccinated), and I get tested for covid at least twice a month.
Being a cat sitter is something I have always loved! I have lots of experience caring for the pets of friends, and I would love to get to know your kitty (or kitties), too!

Went abroad and Holly took care of our three kitties. Our super shy kitty warmed up to her so quickly and was even flopping over for her in the daily photos we sent. She even made a collage of them switching their food bowls. It's such a reassurance to have a great pet sitter when you are so far away from them. Definitely recommend Holly!

Holly made sure all our kitties were well taken care of while we were away. Even looked for our shy girls who hide from strangers so that we wouldn't worry!

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.
If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.
Arlington cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.
Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet!
