I have years of experience working with cats, as a Veterinary Technician for three and owner of a cat sitting/dog walking company for eleven. I worked as a receptionist at a Seattle animal emergency hospital, so I can look out for emergencies with a keen eye. I've taken care of hundreds of cats over the years and comfortable giving pills, ointments, insulin, eye/ear drops and SQ fluids.. Because of my experience in hospitals I understand the importance of meds and them being given on time, so I have no problems with specific times for higher need kitties.

I live in Fort Collins with my two sweet kitties Marta and Bijou, they love to snuggle and sleep all day. Bijou has asthma, so I know how to watch out for asthma attacks and use an Aerocat. I can take care of kitties in Fort Collins, Laporte

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 did an excellent job of keeping our cat happy while we were away and keeping us informed. Our cat is usually upset with us when we return from a trip, but not when Kelly watched him. He barely noticed that we were back home.

This was the first time Kelly took care of my cat Jack. Jack is introverted so she did a great job of giving him space and allowed him to come out when he was ready. I really appreciated her patience! He was relaxed and happy when I got home. He's looking forward to seeing Kelly again.

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 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 is simply awesome. I trust her to take fabulous care of my kitties, and Randy and Lilli are comfortable with her. Kelly is so observant and spends time making sure they are ok and everything is clean. I am so much happier with her care than with boarding them anywhere! Thanks!

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.

Fort Collins cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. 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!
