Cat Sitting in Richmond, VA

Hi, I’m Eryn! I’m an avid animal lover with a chunky tabby cat of my own. I have been pet sitting for over 10 years now and am also a Rover sitter.

I have been pet sitting for over 10 years now and am also a Rover sitter. I used to work as a veterinary assistant, and can administer medicine and know how to work with cats of all ages and personalities. I am good at reading cat “body language” and knowing when to give them space vs cuddles. I am located in Churchill, but am happy to travel within the RVA area. I also have flexible availability, other than planned trips that are blocked off.

Learn More About Eryn

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have been cat sitting on Rover for 3 years and watching my friends animals for around 10 years now. When working at the vet, I was responsible for the care of boarding cats including feeding, giving any meds, cleaning their kennels, and more.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have one 4 year old tabby cat named Clyde. He is extremely vocal, friendly, and hungry. He loves belly rubs, sleeping, playing with string and lasers.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I really enjoy a classic laser pen, feather on a stick, and hair ties seem to be a crowd pleaser.

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 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 Meet & Greet!
