I'm Paloma
Cat Sitting in Irving, TX
I am meticulous, clean, and highly attentive to details. I believe this bri... I have lived with cats since I was five years old, and I can’t imagine life without them. They have shaped my understanding of companionship, autonomy and gentle connection - qualities that I share. Today I live with five beloved cats, they and all the previous ones (each with unique personality and needs), have given me decades of hands-on experience in care, observation and calm, respectful handling.
I am meticulous, clean, and highly attentive to details. I believe this brings great peace of mind to cat parents who want their home and their cats cared for with consistency and intention. Even short visits can be meaningful and efficient when you know what cats enjoy - and what they prefer to avoid.
My calm presence, my deep sensibility to feline behavior, and my lifelong bond with cats sets me apart. Your kitty will receive thoughtful, gentle care and you will have clear communication, daily updates and great pictures (I am also a photographer).

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I enjoy the most getting to know new feline friends while giving them care, companion, peace and love, while their parents are away.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I follow instructions carefully, stay attentive to body language and monitor behavior closely. I double check doors, windows, closets or other small hiding spaces. And keep communication clear and consistent.
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes, I do not go out of town often and I am available during holidays. I enjoy helping families travel with peace of mind.
What is your favorite cat toy?
I absolutely love to shake the cat teaser wand because it encourages active play, bonding, daily excessive and safe mental stimulation.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I handle timid or anxious cats with patience, clam energy, respecting their space, routines, and letting trust build naturally over time.

Paloma is awesome. Attention to detail and above and beyond are not even enough to describe the work she did taking care of my 6 cats. They unfortunately were really bad and peed and vomited all over the place, but she took the time and effort to make the place spotless. First time in a while where I actually came home and my place was cleaner than it was when I left it after using other services or just asking neighbors or friends. Paloma is awesome!

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.
Irving cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
