After we had to put my childhood cat down 2 years ago, I was devastated and wanted to give back. I volunteer at my local animal shelter and have enjoyed fostering cats to get them out of the shelter and adopted! I frequently cat sit for my friends and have fostered several cats who have gone onto getting adopted by loving families. I enjoy all things cats and am excited to help you and your furry friend feel comfortable! :)

Learn More About Samantha

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Getting to know them and getting them out of their comfort zones! They all have unique personalities, likes and dislikes!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I don’t currently have my own cats but had a childhood fur baby named Ricky! I have since fostered several cats.

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

I am very gentle and let them come to me! Gaining their trust takes time and is important they feel comfortable with someone new.

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.

Arlington cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. 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 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. 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 free Meet & Greet!
