I specialize in thoughtful, low-stress care for cats of all personalities — from social and playful to shy and selective. I take the time to understand each cat’s routine, preferences, and boundaries so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

I have experience with multi-cat households, administering basic medications, and caring for senior cats who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m highly reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, and I treat your home and your cat with the same level of care I would expect for my own.

You can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your cat is in calm, capable hands.

Learn More About Eryn

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I do! I have two cats of my own, Beatrice and Arthur. Living with them keeps me well-practiced in reading feline moods, routines, and quirks, so I bring that same attentiveness to every cat I sit for.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

Before the first visit, I like to get a clear picture of the cat’s routine, favorite hiding spots, feeding schedule, and any quirks or sensitivities so there are no surprises. I treat the home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own, and I send regular updates and photos during visits so you have peace of mind the whole time you’re away. I’m also happy to do a meet-and-greet beforehand if that helps you feel more comfortable handing over the keys.

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

I never rush a shy or anxious cat. On the first visit, I let them set the pace — sitting quietly nearby, speaking softly, and letting them approach me rather than the other way around. I pay close attention to body language and back off if a cat needs more space or time. Consistency helps too, so I try to keep visits at the same times and follow the same routine the cat already knows, which builds trust faster than anything else. My goal is always for the cat to feel safe and unbothered, not just “managed.”

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.

Richmond cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $31.00. 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!
