Learn More About Julie
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
My first job was pet sitting for neighbors, both dogs and cats. I've been doing it off and on for about 35 years now!
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I know how difficult it can be to trust your fur kid to someone else's care. The best part about cat sitting for me is knowing that I can provide peace of mind to cat parents and loving care for their kitties.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have three rambunctious boys - Clay, Ali, and Jack. Clay is a ginger tabby, Ali is a gray tabby, and Jack is pure white. Clay and Ali are litter mates. Jack joined up about three years ago. They are all rescues.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
Make sure you are comfortable with them! Do a meet & greet. Speak with the person about your concerns and expectations. Look for someone who loves animals and understands their different personalities.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I like to do a meet & greet and get to know the cat's routine. I also like to learn about the cat parent, and how they prefer to interact with their pet.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
It's important to keep doors locked, windows closed, and use whatever security measures the cat parent uses.
Are you usually available during holidays?
I am available during holidays!
What is your favorite cat toy?
That really depends on the cat! For interactive play, I find that many cats like a flexible wand with a toy or feathers at the end. My boys really enjoy small mouse-shaped stuffed, and soft toys with crinkly material inside.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Being calm and keeping to their routine is the best way to help a timid or anxious cat. I give them time to become used to me.

Julie did a great job with my cats! She came every other day, but even stopped in a few extra times to make sure they were okay. She sent updates every time she visited and my cats were comfortable with her. She even fixed my litter box!

Julie did an amazing job with our three guys! All her updates and photos made us feel reassured and made it a little easier to be away from our babies. She even swept the floor before we got home, which was so nice to come home to after a long travel day. We would definitely book with her again!

Julie, as always, was great with our little guy. She takes the time to play and spend time on every visit. Our kitty is usually timid with people outside of our household, but enjoys when Julie comes over by talking to her, playing, coming out of his "safe space" and let's her pet and snuggle him.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.
If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.
Anchorage cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.
Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet!
