Learn More About Talynne

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

I’ve been a cat person since day one - I grew up with two and we had four by the time I moved out for college! I also volunteered at a Petsmart adoption center for about a year, caring for lots of cats and kittens daily because I missed my cats at home so much! I’ve fostered a handful of cats from kittens to adult/senior cats as well. Between that and years of personal experience, I’m very comfortable with everything from playtime, cleaning up, and medications. I now own two dogs out in Virginia Beach with my husband, so if you have a cat & dog household, I am happy to accommodate and pet sit for all pets if needed.

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

When I work with a new cat parent, I like to start with a meet & greet (even over a video call) to learn about your kitty’s routine, favorite toys, feeding schedule, and any special needs. I’ll also ask about if you’d like updates, how often, photos, preferred communication style, and emergency contacts. During visits, I stick closely to your instructions while making sure your cat feels safe and cared for. I’ll send regular updates with photos if you’d like so you know exactly how your kitty is doing! My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both you and your cat.

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

Growing up with a very timid black cat named Tippy, I’m very aware of caring for kitties with anxiety. I don’t mind if your kitty is hiding when I arrive, I will make sure they are safe in the house, have food, water, etc. and give them lots of treats and love if they come out from under the bed/hiding spot! I truly treat your cat like I would my own, I always give Tippy love when he comes out but allow him to feel safe by hiding if that’s what he chooses to do.

She has such a natural ability to care for and connect with all animals. She is also one of the most kindest and caring people I know- I would trust her again to take care of my cat. She is also very solid at communication

Frequently Asked Questions

Virginia Beach cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $25.00. 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.
