Learn More About Erika

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

I’m very familiar with kitties who consider themselves escape artists. I always always check the doorway as I enter and exit, putting my foot in front of the open gap, and keeping my hands free in case anyone tries to sneak out. Once inside, I don’t leave anything sharp or breakable where a cat could get to it. I also like to do a headcount before I leave to make sure I know where everyone is, and I double check that doors are locked on my way in and on my way out.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I tend not to travel during holiday seasons, opting for visiting family when airports are less busy, so I’m typically available over holidays!

What is your favorite cat toy?

Definitely a cat teaser wand 😁

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

One of my kitties is very anxious, so I have a lot of experience in this area! When meeting anxious cats I like to stay calm and quiet, taking care to not make any loud sounds or sudden movements. I’ll look to see where they’re hanging out, and I’ll sit close by. I’ll reach out my arm, letting them choose to close the gap if they want to sniff. Depending on how timid the cat is, sometimes they’ll come closer for me to pet them and sometimes it takes minutes for them to peek out. But I wait patiently and quietly, letting them stay in control.

Erika was super communicative and sent pictures and updates every day. She was incredibly caring with our elder cat, making sure he took his medicine each day and opened the window for him to sniff the air outside. very grateful for the attention and love you gave him while we were away.

Erika was amazing! She updated me when she arrived, sent a checklist/photos of what she did, & sent photos of the kitties playing/getting pets/eating—even some cute Christmas photos. I would definitely hire her again to watch my kitties.

Erika was absolutely wonderful. My cats adored her and felt so comfortable being near her and sitting on her lap to get brushed and to have lots of kitty ear rubs and cat attention. Erika sent meaningful photos and summaries from the daily visits, which allowed me to have tremendous peace of mind while traveling. She is cheerful, a warm and kind person…and total cat lover. Her goodness and love of cats came through in photos from each visit. Highly recommend her!!!

Erika took excellent care of Theo while we were out of town for a holiday. She took clear, informative photos documenting what she did with him (and, or course, cute photos and videos of my little guy). I would have her watch him again in a heartbeat.

Erika is the best! She was highly communicative, sent thorough summaries after her visit, and shared plenty of photos. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and I felt totally at ease on our trip knowing she was checking in on my senior kitty. I will absolutely hire her again and recommend her to anyone who needs a reliable and friendly cat-sitter :)

Erika was amazing from start to finish. She initially came for a meet and greet, which made me feel super comfortable with her and then throughout the weekend she sent me photos and updates every day so I could stay in the loop. She was so sweet and helpful and made me feel comfortable leaving town. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and will definitely use this service again in the future!

Frequently Asked Questions

Manchaca cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $27.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
