Learn More About Kelly

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I’ve been a professional cat sitter since 2007. Owned a pet sitting company in Seattle for 11 years. Moved back to Fort Collins in 2022 and have cat sat here since then.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Every kitty is different and I enjoy getting to know them and what their needs are. The super shy kitties that finally warm up are some of my favorites!

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

Making sure all doors and windows are shut/locked. Sometimes clients leave in a hurry and doors are unlocked. So I always check them all. For cat safety making sure no flowers or plants out that are poisonous. Had a client leave lilies on counter. Also make sure nothing left out they can knock over and break.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am from Fort Collins and all my family lives around the area, so all holidays I’ll be in town.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

Don’t push them or rush them to warm up. I remain calm and let them come to me. Sometimes washing hands with clients soap works, it gives them a familiar smell. But mostly calm, quiet and don’t rush.

Kelly is great! Very kind and super responsive. Showed up when asked and followed all instructions. My normally picky cat even allowed Kelly to play with her a little which says wonders!

Kelly was so nice and responsive. She took great care of my two spoiled kitties, twice a day, and they were happy and contented when I came back after 6 days away. I appreciated the time she took to play with them. That was the best!

Kelly went above and beyond, in taking care of my little Luna Bear when I had to leave town on sudden notice around the holidays. I really appreciated her flexibility and her willingness to adjust her schedule to give Luna the extra time and care she needed! Thank you so much, Kelly!!

Kelly was awesome. She came and visited my apartment to meet Blue before I left and checked in with photos and comments every time she visited. She is great with cats and she did a great job of watering my plants.

Kelly was simply awesome. This was our first time to "hire" a petsitter and I was verry anxious. Meeting Kelly made us so much more comfortable. I'm a veterinarian, and Kelly clearly has knowledge, experience, and is very observant and aware of any little changes in the kitties. This impression proved to be accurate; she proactively looked for any problems, and gave them both personal attention. She petted, brushed, and played with them. She went above and beyond cleaning their messy areas, sent cute pictures, and kept us fully updated. One of our kitties has health issues, and I feel comfortable leaving him in her care. We are hoping she's available for future trips! 6 stars

Kelly did such a good job of caring for my cat Sam! She thought of details related to his care that didn't even occur to me. Her daily check-ins were helpful, detailed and reassuring. I would definitely recommend her!

Kelly was exactly what I expected when she arrived, based on the great reviews she already had. Carl is very shy and meeting new people is difficult for him. When she came for the meet and greet, she whispered magic at him, and he was letting her pet him. When we were gone, we got the best photos of him and fantastic updates that included all the things she did for him and his behavior and disposition during the visit. I had peace of mind during my vacation. Thanks, Kelly!!

Kelly was great! She took amazing care of both my younger cat and my older diabetic cat, sent me pictures and recaps every visit, and really just made our holiday less filled with anxiety knowing our cats were cared for. Thank you!

Kelly is absolutely great! Kelly took very good care of our cats, one of whom has a lot of medical issues and needs reliable, consistent feeding and care. I felt very at ease while Kelly was watching them. I highly recommend Kelly for your pet sitting needs! We will definitely be repeat clients.

I booked Kelly because she had great reviews and a lot of experience with cats. My kitties warmed up to her right away so I felt very comfortable with them in her care. She was highly communicative throughout my trip with photos and updates, and I’m so glad my cats were well cared for. Thanks Kelly!!

I was thrilled to see Kelly V on Meowtel; she'd watched my cats previously when she owned Puget Pets. Kelly did a wonderful job with my diabetic cat Mugsy and my other two cats. She texted me his blood glucose numbers and kept in in close contact with me while I was away working at a convention in Anaheim. After two and a half years of not traveling for work, I was nervous about leaving my special needs cat for a week but Kelly made sure that they were well taken care of. Very happy to recommend her!

I am new to the Seattle area and was having difficulty in finding a cat sitter who would come to my apartment in the downtown area. Kelly had no problem coming here which was the first step in alleviating my anxiety of leaving my kitty in a new city, with a new sitter. Kelly was in time for the Meet and Greet and asked lots of questions to get to know my cat. Ice the sitting gig began Kelly connected with my cat (who is actually skittish around most people) and y the end he would be greeting Kelly by the door. I received updates and photos during every visit which I appreciate and was the final step in reducing my cat parent anxiety. I already booked Kelly for another visit and will definitely refer her to anyone looking for a cat sitter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fort Collins cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $25.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
