I'm Sarah | Cat Sitting in Richmond, VA

Cats are absolutely my favorite animal, and my friends and family members with cats all know that when I visit I'm often more excited to see their cats than them. Haha. For years I served as a cat sitter for my friends' cats when they went on vacation and needed someone to check in on them, feed them, clean their litter boxes, and give them some love and attention. I'm now thrilled to be a cat sitter for so many amazing Meowtel clients! I work from home and can easily add visits to your home into my daily routine, especially if you live in or near The Fan Neighborhood, Museum District, or Scott's Addition in Ri...

Learn More About Sarah

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy cat sitting because I think cats are just the cutest things on earth! Cats bring me a wonderful sense of calm and contentment and I love being around them. I try to help them feel as comfortable as possible in my presence. I'm also happy to know that I'm helping to give cat parents peace of mind when they are away from their precious ones.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My family had 3 friendly, active cats when I was growing up who all lived to be over 17 years old. Their names were Allegra, Peach, and Twinkie. I helped feed them and clean their litter boxes every day as a child and teen. I loved playing with them and cuddling them. Shortly after graduating from college, I got my own precious cat from a friend of a friend whose cat had kittens. I loved and cared for him his whole life. (His name was Maomi and he is featured in my photo gallery. Wasn't he adorable?!)

Sarah did a wonderful job as always with my senior cat, managing multiple medications and special food needs. She is very reliable and responsive and always manages to charm my cat who is normally shy!

This is the second time Sarah has watched my cat while I’ve been away. It is such a relief to know that when I leave he will be taken care of in such a loving way. Sarah knows I love all of the pics and videos and always sends lots of updates. Thank you, Sarah!

I was leaving my kitten for the first time and was very anxious about it. Sarah immediately made me feel at ease. While away, Sarah updated me with pictures and how my kitten was doing. She even noticed when his behavior seemed a little off and let me know. Sarah really cares and it shows in everything she does. I would book her again and hope she’s available for my next trip. :-)

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

Richmond cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $33.00. 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. Meowtel sitters 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 we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 will include 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. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
