I'm Rachel
Cat Sitting in Denver, CO
Boundaries are SO important to me when it comes to interacting with cats. I pride myself in being able to recognize a cat’s body language and understanding what they need in that moment... Hello! My name is Rachel and I have lived with cats my entire life. My cat’s name is Frederika and I won her over long ago when she was living in a bustling apartment of college students and my room became her refuge. Now she lives a much more relaxing life with me in our sunny home near the gardens.
Boundaries are SO important to me when it comes to interacting with cats. I pride myself in being able to recognize a cat’s body language and understanding what they need in that moment. Freddy chose me because I gave her the space and patience she needed and I will give your cats the same respect.
My pride and joy was diagnosed with feline asthma in the fall of 2023. Because of this I have quite a bit of experience administering medication both orally and topically.
I currently work for a nonprofit, specifically in the food programs running a food pantry. I get off of work in the afternoon and would love to spend my evenings taking care of your kitties!
✨I will NOT be available for Thanksgiving or Christmas this year✨
Learn More About Rachel
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have a beautiful baby girl named Frederika AKA Freddy. The story of how I got her goes like this: I downloaded Reddit for the first time to join my college’s subreddit. The first post I saw said “Does anyone want a free kitten? (insert blurry photo)” Immediately I replied yes and an hour later I was picking her up from a complete strangers apartment. I deleted Reddit after that. Nothing better could’ve come from having it.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I usually prefer to have a reservation booked before we schedule the complimentary meet and greet, but you are always welcome to message me and ask any questions you might have before booking. I’m also generally pretty flexible! If your zip code is not in my service zone, feel free to message me and I’ll let you know if I can add it.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
My girl is just like this! I have given her space and patience her whole life and she feels safe with me because of that. I do not rush to pet or hold a cat who doesn’t know me. Everything is on their terms and they get to decide when they’re comfortable.

Rachel was amazing! Our cats never come out for anyone and they did for her within days. She was responsive when one of our cats had some special needs and added visits during the holidays. We are so lucky we found her😸😸

Rachel was a wonderful caretaker for our 2 kitties! She was always on time and provided food, medicine, and treats in their typical schedule. She sent photos every time she visited. Our kitties were very comfortable with her, and even our shy kitty came out to cuddle with her!

Rachel was wonderful to our senior cats; our girl Lil' Bit is still quasi-feral around new people, so I wasn't sure that Rachel would even see her during the visit. Lo and behold, the first pic she sends us is Lil Bit asking for pets! She's got a gift for cat whispering. Our cats were happy, well fed and well loved, and our place was just like we'd left it. Can't recommend Rachel enough!

Rachel was great with my cat. I changed to an automatic feeder in the middle the day she started sitting but after our meet and great. And she already knew what to do and how to set it up. It was great, just having a sitter who truly understands cats and their needs.

I was a bit hesitant to use Meowtel at first, but I am so glad I did. Rachel was absolutely fantastic! I am normally hesitant to go out of town and leave my 11 year old single cat Frank for too long... He's got digestive issues and is a very, very needy cat. My neighbor used to check in on him, but after some issues that arose last Thanksgiving, I decided to try Meowtel. From the first Meet & Greet, Rachel was always on time and fully attentive to Frank's needs. She showed up at the scheduled time each day I was out of town and had no issues following my complicated (and probably overbearing) care instructions. She let me know how Frank was doing each time she came over and texted me a bunch of photos each day. For anyone reading this that's considering using Meowtel for the first time, you absolutely will not regret hiring Rachel to take care of your cats. Thanks again for being so awesome, Rachel!

Frequently Asked Questions
Reservations officially begin at 12:00 AM in the sitter's time zone on the start date. Cat Parents may cancel within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund, as long as the reservation has not yet started. After the first 24 hours, the following cancellation rules apply:
- More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.
- 24–48 hours before the reservation start date: 50% refund. The sitter will earn 50% of their planned earnings.
- Within 24 hours of the reservation start date (or after it has begun): No refund. The sitter will earn 100% of their planned earnings.

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.
Denver cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $29.00. 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!

Rachel was so great with my cat, Luci. Luci is around 6 months old and was undersocialized as a baby, so I was worried about leaving her with someone else. However, Rachel was so great with her. Rachel checked in with me regularly and followed my instructions for Luci’s care thoroughly. I would definitely book with Rachel again.

Rachel was great! She even helped us and our cat figure out his automatic feeder. At first he was afraid of it but when she showed up for her fourth visit he had eaten it all so he’s learned how to use it while she was watching him. We are very happy 😊

Rachel was absolutely fantastic. This was my first time ever leaving my extremely clingy cat and Rachel far exceeded any expectations I had. She followed the instructions I left to a T, sent thorough updates and took lots and lots of pictures! It was evident to me through the photos and my pet cameras that my kitty Linus was always happy to see Rachel and warmed up to her very quickly. She truly is a cat-first person and made sure to adapt the routine to whatever best fit Linus’ needs at the time, going above and beyond to care for him and ensure all was safe when she left. I am so lucky to have found a go-to sitter my first time around. I have a feeling Linus is going to miss Rachel and how much she spoiled him and to me, that is the BEST way to feel when returning home. :)

Rachel was fast to respond to my reservation. Easy and flexible to sched meet and greet. So glad i picked her. She won over my very shy/scared kitty and gave good lovins to my 20 year old kitty. She was a great daily communicator and went above and beyond to disconnect a beeping/defective smoke alarm that was scarring the cats. Look forward to knowing i can use her again. She is trustworthy and definitely a cat whisper 😻
