Learn More About Joy

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

Prior to joining Meowtel in June 2023, I had a few years of experience cat sitting for friends and family. Even then, I always made sure to send detailed updates, along with cute pictures and videos, after each visit. Imagine my surprise when I learned that Meowtel sitters do the exact same thing! It gave me the confidence I needed to extend my services to more people, and meet more kitties, as a result.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love being able to meet and interact with all different types of cats. Each one is so unique, and learning how to befriend them is such a rewarding experience!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a petite eleven year-old girl named Jasmine, who is a gray tuxedo with a heart-shaped black nose 🖤

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

Having a new human in your house can be intimidating, so I always let the cat have their space and approach me on their own terms. I may put my hand out for them to sniff, but I let them decide whether or not to close the gap. I keep calm, no matter how they react, and never try to force interaction. I’m also mindful of feline signs of fear or tension, and I’ll back off if they show the slightest bit of either. And for those kitties who like to hide under blankets, don’t worry; I will not try to pet you through your protective barrier!

Joy was the best cat sitter I’ve ever had. I always get anxious leaving the boys, especially because one of mine is a bit older and had special diet and medication needs. Joy was always punctual, followed every instruction perfectly, and would provide updates every visit. The boys were immediately comfortable with her and I could tell they felt safe in her company. I will only be reserving Joy moving forward, she is that good.

Joy is the only person we trust to care for our cats while we travel. She gives them a lot of loving attention and they are always happy to see her (and they're usually shy kitties). Thank you Joy!

Joy was incredibly patient with our cat, Sugar. She stayed even when Sugar was being sassy and even started to win her over (this is a hard task). We will definitely be using Joy again in the future. <3

I can strongly recommend Joy. she did an excellent job looking after our 2 cats for 2 weeks, including a day extension when one of our flights was cancelled. her communication is excellent and very thorough, including many photos and videos, which we all enjoyed. And the house was in a very good state of cleanliness when we got back - she did a lot more than just look after the cats - which make us even happier to return to it. it is very clear that Joy loves cats, and they in turn love her care and attention.

Joy was absolutely fantastic! My cat is not friendly with other people, but Joy was so patient and sweet with her. Joy completely respected my cat’s boundaries and I think my cat felt pretty comfortable with her. I felt much better being out of town knowing that she was so well cared for. Joy sent detailed updates with pictures and videos of every visit. In the past usually family and friends have checked on my cat when I’m out of town, but I definitely look forward to having Joy fill that roll in the future.

You know those lucky humans that cats just love and trust instinctively? That's Joy! My shy kitty came out of his shell immediately and knowing he was at ease helped ME relax while I was away. The updates we got were SO good - in fact, I have never had quite such a detail-oriented cat sitter experience. She was super on top of all of our cats' needs in a way that made it absolutely clear she was completely tuned into them, and not just checking off boxes on a to-do list. I cannot recommend Joy enough for her professionalism, top notch communication, and her incredible cat-charming skills!!

Frequently Asked Questions

Houston 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.
