Learn More About Melina

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love being around cats, and meeting new cats with all different personalities. Whether they are energetic, loud, quiet, calm- I donā€™t mind at all, I enjoy being around cats and appreciating their unique behaviors. I enjoy playing with cats and spending time with them. Some people think cats are low maintence, but truthfully, all cats deserve someone who is willing to play with them, care for them, and love them unconditionally. šŸ©·

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

To ensure safety and security, I make sure that your cat remains indoors-as per Meowtel policy. When entering the house, I make sure to stand close to the door to avoid cats running out. When leaving the house, I double check my surroundings to ensure no cats escaped. While cat sitting, I will be sure that all doors remained locked for safety.

Are you usually available during holidays?

As long as you give me enough notice, I can easily accomodate. I typically stay in town during holidays, as all my family is here.

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

I make sure to respect their boundaries. I will let cats sniff my hand and get familiar with my scent before I even try to get close. If they arenā€™t too comfortable yet, I wait until they choose to be close to me rather than forcing it.

Melina always kept us updated with photos and we appreciated her daily communication. Our cat immediately liked Melina from day one when she introduced herself for the meet and greet. Our cat was well taken care of and I will ask Melina again to take of our cat for our next vacation. I donā€™t have to stress anymore leaving my cat with someone while I am on vacation. Thank you Melina!!

Melina is a superstar cat sitter! She was very thorough, nurturing and responsive to our needs and went above and beyond to take care of our boys. Both of our cats connected very well with her and we look forward to having her take care of them again!

Melina was great! I have a challenge with my situation because my 2 cats don't get along and have to be separated. She handled it brilliantly. She even got my cat that normally hides to come out and visit. She is very nice and responsible. Highly recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions

San Antonio 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 $24.00. 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.
