Learn More About Kim

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

I have been cat sitting for a few years.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Knowing the cats are happy and safe in their own home, and that I'm providing their pet parents and them a wonderful service. Cats thrive the best in familiar settings! And I am here to accommodate them! Especially the shy ones who eventually get to know me and come out of their shell.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

This super cute thick boy who usually hide under the bed came to me while I was knitting and keeping him company to play with my yarn, revealing to me his playful personality!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two feline daughters named Baby Daffodil and Mama - no prior relation! Just unfortunate naming. I adopted Baby first!

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

I would interview the sitter to make sure they are a good match for my kitties. As a pet parent myself, I want someone who can match my cats need. My girls are incredibly confident beings, and I know it's because I provided the right environment for them to thrive. For example, though they are incredibly confident and do not hide with strangers, they do not like loudness. I remind guests that they should use a lower voice when first coming into my house as to not frighten them (or else they will definitely try hiding). I make sure my cat sitters know every detail I expect of them e.g., how to feed them, what is expected of them, and also require the sitter to come by first.

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

Please contact me so we can arrange an interview and/or a meeting with your kitties so I know all the details on how to best cater to your loved ones!

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I do not allow cats to go outside. Cats must be inside at all time. If your cat is sick and/or have fleas, I would need to be notified first.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes. I am available during some holidays.

What is your favorite cat toy?

The wand toys are usually the best. No attachment needed. Cats are usually thrill to chase the end of the stick!

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

I do not believe in pushing cats outside their comfort zone. In order to not traumatize them, they must come out on their own. One must be patient, use a soft voice and get them comfortable being close to you. Sometimes, all that can be done in terms of giving them human interaction is by being beside them and talking to them as they do not allow pets. And that is fine too! With time, they will come to you for love.

This was the second time we booked with Kim and we couldn’t be happier! The kitties were well taken care of and there were so many photos and great updates of our little old ladies!

This is my first booking with Kim but my cats already fall in love with her! Kim sent me amazing photos and updates daily. She went above and beyond to make sure my cats were well taken care of. Definitely will book Kim again. Highly recommend.

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.
