Learn More About Saya

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What I enjoy most about cat-sitting is the quiet and the presence that comes with cats, as well as the connections we get to build. Spending time with cats often involves slowing down and being patient, and these kinds of interactions are as beneficial for the cat as they are for me! Cats have such unique personalities, and I love having the opportunity to get to know who they are. With shy or timid cats, earning their trust can take time, but it is always incredibly rewarding. When they show me they feel safe and comfortable in my presence, it’s a meaningful connection that makes every visit special.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

One of my favorite reservations is a family I regularly sit for who has five formerly feral cats. When the cats were first adopted, they were extremely wary of people and would hide whenever someone new came into the house. Because of my experience with feral cats, I was able to gain their trust by talking softly, sitting quietly on the floor, and using toys and treats to open up the space. Now when I arrive, several of them come to greet me at the door, and I’ve been able to build a relationship with each of them at their own pace. Cats (especially ferals) don’t give their trust easily, so watching our relationships develop over time has been incredibly rewarding and has made them one of my favorite families to visit!

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

Working with timid and anxious cats is actually my speciality. Through my TNR (trap-neuter-return) work and experience caring for stray and feral cats, I’ve learned that the best way to approach shy or fearful cats is to slow down, respect their boundaries, and have patience. When I arrive for a visit, I usually start by speaking softly to the cat and sitting on the floor, allowing them to get used to my presence. I then offer treats or an enticing toy to open up the space, and allow the cat to decide when and how they want to interact. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress environment where the cat feels comfortable to open up at their pace. Because of this approach, I’ve been successful at building relationships with shy, anxious, and even feral cats over time, and hope to build a lasting relationship with your cat too.

Frequently Asked Questions

Salt Lake City 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 $25.00. 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.
