I'm Cecilia | Cat Sitting in Richardson, TX

Meow there! I’m Cecilia and I’d love to meet you and you kitty companions! I have 2 very spoiled cats of my own and I’ve fostered kittens long term until they found their perfect home❤️. I understand every cat has a different personality and will do my best to accommodate and earn the trust of your furry friend 🐾 . During my visits, I replenish food/water bowls, clean l...

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

I’ve been with Meowtel since 2018! I use to work in the healthcare industry full time and loved spending time with kitties in my free time so I joined Meowtel. Eventually in 2020 I went full time with this and it’s been amazing. I enjoy what I do and it’s really rewarding gaining a kitty’s trust and being able to let their owners know they can enjoy their time away without having to worry.

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

Meet and greets are extra helpful to know whether or not a sitter is compatible with you AND your cat/s. It’s totally fine to shop around until you find someone you’re comfortable with because you are trusting us with your home and a part of your family. Let us know exactly what you need from us to feel comfortable just like you’ll let us know what your kitty needs and we’ll do what we can to make sure this is a stress-free experience for everyone :)

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

I like to announce my arrival and sit down to greet them at the door, sometimes more anxious kitties might not be brave enough for that first step and that’s okay! If they’re hiding I try and get a visual and then I go about my duties, sometimes they’ll get curious enough to make an appearance so I’ll try and bring out their favorite toy or treat. I have had a few cats that just never got comfortable enough and I usually suggest shorter visits to not stress them out too much. I have two anxious kitties myself and I know sometimes it takes a little extra work and patience.

Cecilia is an amazing person, and I trust her implicitly with my two babies. She always goes the extra mile to get them to feel comfortable and safe in my absence. She's very responsive and knowledgeable about cats and what they need. I highly recommend Cecilia.

Cecilia is always very reliable and provides us tons of photos and videos which provide us a lot of comfort so that we can enjoy our vacation. She also went above and beyond to receive an important Fedex package and help our parents with providing tip-top kitty care! Thanks again, Cecilia!

Cecilia was awesome to have for our two girls! We have a very shy cat and she made sure to get eyes on her a few times despite her Houdini hiding skills. She took care to interact as much as possible with both cats and play with them and brought all our mail in and rotated lights for us. Would definitely hire her again! Thanks Cecilia!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Richardson cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. 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.
