I currently have 1 ginger kitty named Honey. With that being said rest assured I will love and care for your baby as if it were my own.

How I will provide service:

I will follow your instructions regarding feeding, cleaning, and play to the T. I am detail oriented at heart :) Make your request & I will be happy to abide by you & your kitties preferences.

I can:
-clean litters
-feed wet/dry food
-administered medications if needed
-play with kitties
-mop up/sweep any accidents
-clean bowls/feeders

I will be sure to:
Update you if your kitty exhibits any signs of illness such as Upper respiratory infection (sneezing, watery nose) or not wanting to eat.

Provide updates as often and as little as you’d like.

I can send you photos of every feed I provide to ensure I am neither overfeeding or underfeeding your babies.

I understand not all kitties are the same and have unique routines for feeding & play. I will do my best to honor your requests.

If you have any further questions or concerns you are welcome to ask.

Learn More About Valerie

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 1 kitty named Honey, I adopted her at 2 years of age as a momma cat of 4 babies after fostering her. Fun fact she’s got tiny front legs like a munchkin cat.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Make me a list of your feeding schedule and requests. Love photos of your babies as well especially if there is multiple and similar in fur color. Tell me your odd requests! Your baby deserves to be cared for and pampered.

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

1st visit entails a meet & greet. To make sure we are a perfect fit for eachother :) Get the kitties used to seeing an unfamiliar face and get the details on what you’d like done ^_^ New Clients** Payment can be post visit, whichever makes you feel the most comfortable :)

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

My mom actually has a timid cat that loves to be left alone. No pets, let her home to you. My approach is to try to get the kitty to come to me with their favorite treat. I can give and sit nearby. Have my hand near to ease their anxiety/ nerves. If pets aren’t their things that’s okay I won’t take it personal. I’ll still love them and show them safety with play and food. As much or as little as you’d like ofcourse.

Valerie was great with my four kitties and followed their routine closely. She gave medication twice daily to one of the babies and cleaned up any mess they left. My shiest cat warmed up to her so quickly!

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.

Garland cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!
