I'm Laura
Cat Sitting in Richardson, TX
Hello! I'm a lifelong cat lover and proud cat parent to five feline companions. Caring for cats is not just a passion for me; it's a way of life. When I meet new cats, I always take my time to introduce myself slowly, ensuring that I respect their space. If a cat seems scared, I’ll back off and allow them to approach me on their own terms, always speaking in a soft, gentle voice to create a calm environment.
Beyond my love for cats, I... About Me
Hello! I'm a lifelong cat lover and proud cat parent to five feline companions. Caring for cats is not just a passion for me; it's a way of life. When I meet new cats, I always take my time to introduce myself slowly, ensuring that I respect their space. If a cat seems scared, I’ll back off and allow them to approach me on their own terms, always speaking in a soft, gentle voice to create a calm environment.
Beyond my love for cats, I'm also an avid crafter, reader, and gardener. My home is filled with creativity, whether it's through crafting unique items, getting lost in a good book, or nurturing my plants. There’s nothing better than curling up with a good book and a kitty in your lap 💖
You can rest assured that I will treat your cats with all the love and care they deserve, just like my own. I look forward to providing a safe and happy environment for your beloved pets!
Learn More About Laura
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I really just love hanging out with all the cats and giving them love and attention. I know that I always feel better when I know my babies are well taken care of.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have 3 kitties! Miso, Mochi, and Jonesy. I love them all like they are my children, I would do anything for them.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I always approach slowly, and make sure I am low to the ground when I hold my hand out for them to sniff. I always speak in a very soft gentle voice as well. If the cat flinches or shows signs of aggression, I always back off immediately. Patience is key with skittish/anxious cats! Earning a scared cat’s trust over time is truly rewarding & beautiful.

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.
Richardson 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 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 Meet & Greet!
