Cat Sitting in Anchorage, AK

Hello, I'm Haley! I own three kitties of my own- Clawd, Cleo, and Arty- and have owned cats since before I could talk! 😸 My dad was a veterinarian before he retired, and I grew up helping out with animals and even worked for him for a couple of years (so I am familiar with handling needles, pills, topical ointments, and weight management). I have also volunteered at cat shelters for years as well, and have never met a cat I didn't immediately fall in love with.

I like to respect a cat's environment and routine as I know that they need time to adjust to new smells and someone invading their space. I let cats approach me first, and simply do everything I can do make them comfortable and feel safe and respected...
Hello, I'm Haley! I own three kitties of my own- Clawd, Cleo, and Arty- and have owned cats since before I could talk! 😸 My dad was a veterinarian before he retired, and I grew up helping out with animals and even worked for him for a couple of years (so I am familiar with handling needles, pills, topical ointments, and weight management). I have also volunteered at cat shelters for years as well, and have never met a cat I didn't immediately fall in love with.

I like to respect a cat's environment and routine as I know that they need time to adjust to new smells and someone invading their space. I let cats approach me first, and simply do everything I can do make them comfortable and feel safe and respected. If a cat shows they're okay with me, of course they'll be showered with pets and cuddles! But, I won't be offended if they're more comfortable hiding under the couch.

My cat, Clawd, suffers from trauma from before my husband adopted him, so I am accustomed to caring for traumatized and nervous cats that need a little extra patience and space to feel at home.

For cat-sitting, I prefer to invade the cat's space as minimally as possible. I would rather make multiple trips to the home to care for the cat than occupy their space for extended periods of time (i.e. overnight stays). Many cats are often territorial and don't like new people right away, and I don't want to induce any more stress than I have to!

Please feel free to ask me questions before, during, and after the visit! I am so happy to talk over any concerns or curiosities you may have. While I am NOT a licensed professional and therefore cannot provide medical advice, I have cared for cats for a very long time and will provide whatever appropriate advice I can! 😸

Learn More About Haley

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Every sitting is educational! Cats are extremely unique, and I've never met two cats with the same personality. I love cats, and have looked for ways to care for and spend time with them my whole life, whether through volunteering at shelters or working as a vet assistant. While my main career ultimately went into a different direction, cat sitting allows me to continue caring for and being around cats in a wonderfully fulfilling way.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My cats are Arty, Cleo, and Clawd! My husband was the original owner of Cleo and Clawd, but I have owned Arty ever since he was 3 weeks old. He's now 7 years old! Arty was rescued from a rural farm as a kitten. He grew into a very sassy little man that loves cuddles and attention However, years ago, Arty nearly lost his life to a single thread. He swallowed a long thread, which got wrapped around his intestines and nearly killed him. My vet performed an hour-long, life-saving surgery on him, and he was in intensive care (that I provided) for weeks. I slept on the floor with him for many nights and never left his side. He made a miraculous full recovery and suffers no issues now! He is my pride and joy.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I always ensure the cats have clear access to food, water, a litter box, and a hiding place. I'm familiar with escape artists, so I keep an eye out for open doors and windows. I also know that cats are able to squish themselves into the weirdest places. I have NEVER lost a cat, and I very much intend on keeping that perfect record!

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 $23.00. 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
