Learn More About Kara

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love the peace of mind I know it gives to a kitty parent to know their cat babies are well taken care of. Meeting different cats and all the personalities they have is so fun. Cats teach boundaries so well!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

We have 3 kitties! Harrison, a sassy tabby who is 8. I've had him since he was a tiny kitten. Milo and Sushi are both 1 yr old orange babies. Milo was found as a orphaned newborn and my 15 yr old daughter bottle fed him. He is thriving now and very fiesty. Sushi is also a rescue cat and is the sweetest, gentle fluffy boy.

Are you usually available during holidays?

My family lives locally and we typically travel before or after holidays. So yes! I am available and willing to watch your cat babies.

Kara was fantastic with our two cats. She sent updates and photos each day. Her responses to our questions were prompt. We are glad she is in our area to help us out when we travel. We highly recommend Kara!

Kara was fantastic! She responded to my request very quickly and was willing to take a last minute booking. My four cats are very different and can be picky; two of them are elderly and require meds/special food. Kara did a great job accommodating all of them and making sure they all got attention and love! She did a great job cleaning the litter and puke, too! Loved her detailed notes and photos. Will book again!

Frequently Asked Questions

San Marcos cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. 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.
