Or some will even offer you the 15 per day rate for multiple cats.

It just kind of depends on what the sitter's preference is.

Okay.

And then, so to list your cat, I mean, it's free up until the point where you make a reservation.

So once you choose to make the reservation, that's when you'll pay Meowtel the service fee of $2 per cat.

Our top cities are San Diego, Richmond, Virginia, and San Francisco Bay Area.

We only have about two or three that have actually booked.

But keep in mind that we launched on August 8th.

So we're really in our infancy stages.

And we're just coming up on our three-month mark.

So we have a lot of growth to do, and I'm excited about that.

It was bootstrapped entirely out of my own pocket.

So all of my savings have gone into the development of the site.

I'm not a technical person, so I had to hire out.

But I found a really great team of developers who did it for a reasonable rate and got a really great website up and running.

So it's put me in a tight financial situation, but in the end, I think it's all going to be worth it.
