I’ve always had a cat, since I was a child. So, I have years of experience caring for cats of all personalities. My career in nursing has shaped me into someone who is highly attentive, patient, and detail-oriented, which translates perfectly into thoughtful cat care. Our cats aren’t just pets, they are family members! So I truly understand how important it is to trust the person looking after your kitties. I approach every visit with the same level of responsibility and compassion that I bring to my work as a nurse.

I’m very comfortable with reading cat’s body language and social cues. Whether your cat is shy and prefers quiet company, or outgoing and ready to play, I adapt my care to match their comfort level and routine. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I find a lot of joy in the small moments, like a shy cat slowly warming up, a playful kitty bringing out their favorite toy, or a relaxed cat curling up on me. 😻 I also love providing updates and photos during my visits. Every time I’ve been on vacation, I’ve thought “I wonder what my cat is doing right now.” I don’t want you to wonder! So, I’ll document everything that me and your cat did together, that way you are fully in the loop on what is happening at home. I love giving cat parents the opportunity to enjoy their vacation, and having the peace of mind knowing that their cat is taken care of.

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

Find someone you feel comfortable trusting with your pet and your home. A good pet sitter should be reliable, communicative, and attentive to your pet’s needs. Don’t hesitate to ask questions about their experience, routine during visits, and how they handle different situations. It’s also helpful to choose someone who takes the time to learn your pet’s personality, habits, and comfort level. Every cat is different, and a thoughtful sitter will adjust their care based on what helps your pet feel safe and relaxed.

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

My main approach is patience and respect for their comfort level. I’m coming into their home and interrupting their usual routine, and I understand that can be scary for them! Cats typically feel safest when they can move at their own pace, so I never force interaction and allow them to take the lead. I’ll greet them by first getting eye level with them, usually by kneeling down or even getting on the floor. And then, I stick out my hand and allow them to come to me. If they aren’t interested, I give them space, move calmly, and let them come to me if or when they feel ready. Sometimes that means simply sitting quietly nearby so they can get used to my presence, speaking softly, or offering gentle play or treats if they seem up for it.

Houston cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $23.00. 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!
