How Meowtel Works

FOR THE CAT PARENT

How Meowtel works for a cat parent

1. Search in your area for a 5-step vetted and fully insured cat sitter who can offer drop-in visits to your home or overnight stays for your kitties.

2. Request to reserve directly from the cat sitter's profile. We can also assist you in finding a great cat sitter if you prefer.

3. The cat sitter will review your request and confirm or decline. If confirmed, you will be provided next steps to set up a complimentary Meet & Greet with your cat sitter. If you're not 100% satisfied with your cat sitter choice after the Meet & Greet, give us a call for alternate cat sitters or a refund.

4. Complete the Cat Profile & Vet Release Forms so your cat sitter can provide the best care possible.

5. Enjoy your trip! Your cat sitter will send you regular updates & photos to let you know how the fluffy kiddos are doing.

How much does Meowtel cost?

Each Meowtel cat sitter sets their own rates and availability so choose a great cat sitter that works for your budget! Rates start at $22 for a 20 minute drop-in visit to your home.

At checkout, you will see a small Trust & Insurance charge added on to your reservation to guarantee the highest quality sitters and insurance coverage are offered on our platform.
