Learn More About Margali

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy getting to know other cats personalities. Having three of my own with very different attitudes, it's really interesting to see how cats can differ.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I was once cat-sitting for a 12 year old cat who had the goopy eyes as a kitten, so she is blind. The family had recently moved to a new home so it was mostly spent helping her become situated in her new surroundings. Lots of treats and echolocation, patience and laughs.

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

Give way too much information! When I leave for vacation I meet with my sitter beforehand and walk them through a typical feeding. I leave a very long note for them with everything I said so they'll always have reference to it.

Margali was fantastic! She took the time during the meet and greet to thoroughly understand all of our instructions and made sure we felt comfortable before we left. While we were away, she kept us updated every visit—messaging us when she arrived and sending lots of pictures of our cats. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We will definitely book with her again!

She was wonderful. She was patient (my kitty hides), kind, a great communicator, timely, accommodating, flexible, and trustworthy. I felt so comfortable leaving my baby with her and definitely would do it again. I can’t say enough how thankful I am to have found her.

Margail was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter! She took such great care of my cats and made sure they were comfortable, well-fed, and happy the entire time. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly genuinely cares about animals. I felt completely at ease knowing my cats were in such good hands. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and dependable pet sitter.

Margali is a kind, trustworthy, and professional cat lover. She refers to her own cats as her children - which really resonates with me, since I consider my cats my children too. I would 100% trust her to care for my furry loved ones. She's exactly the kind of person you want looking after your pets.

Margali did a fantastic job keeping my two little guys happy while I was away! She dealt well with their timed feeds and was always checking in with me throughout my vacation with photos and videos. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking an experienced sitter!

Frequently Asked Questions

Norfolk 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 $30.00. 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.
