Learn More About Emma

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I’m a cat person through and through, so I love spending time with cats in general! I like learning the personalities of each and every cat I meet. Being a cat mom myself, I understand that cat owners are fiercely committed to ensuring their fur babies are cared for with their needs being met. When I cat sit, I bring that knowledge and empathy to the table, ensuring my care flexes to meet the specific needs of each individual cat, because that’s exactly what I would want for my fur baby!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I do! Her name is Dottie. I adopted her (or rather she chose me) when she was about 5, and have had her for 7 years now. She’s an absolute doll and can best be described as a “sassy sweetheart.” She has had bladder issues in the past and is currently on a prescription diet to keep her feeling her best. Having a fur baby that requires special care, I understand how important it is to find someone that matches that level of care and compassion when you are looking for a cat sitter.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Typically, yes! I always ensure to keep my calendar updated with my availability, and will communicate with clients if I am unavailable for any reason.

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

Having had cats myself that are more reserved, or cat sat for friends/family with kitties that fall into that category, I am very comfortable with cats who may take a little time to warm up. When meeting any new cat for the first time, I make sure to pay attention to their specific cues and allow them to approach me in their own time. I understand the importance of picking up on a cat’s body language and will adapt my care based on what they are communicating to me. I always speak in a calm tone, limit sudden movements, and respect the cat’s personal space.

Emma has been my trusted pet sitter for years! Every cat I've ever seen her interact with are all drawn to her calm and respectful demeanor. Even my spicy cat who likes no one, immediately greets her and asks to be picked up when she comes over - Emma is actually her favorite person! Emma is thorough and detail-oriented, so you can trust her to provide the exact care your felines need. She is patient with shyer cats and loves to indulge playtime and cuddles with friendlier kitties. She communicates well, and makes sure to ask questions if anything unexpected comes up. She is fantastic and I'm so glad my cats love her!

Emma Pierce is one of a handful of people that I truly trust. Her empathy, care for others, and reliability are unmatched. I truly believe she is a saint walking this Earth. She is one of the kindest, sweetest, helpful, stable people I have ever met in my life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tacoma cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $27.00. 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.
