What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

It’s such an amazing feeling to earn a cat’s trust. They are such precious creatures and I love getting to know each cat’s personality because they are all so different! It brings me a lot of joy and peace to provide a comfortable and safe space for them while their family is away. Watching them come out of their shell and accept my care is one of the most rewarding things.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a fur baby named Maomi ❤️ She has a white coat and my family got her almost 10 years ago. It’s hard to accept that she’s that old because she’s just a baby in my eyes. She helped me through a lot during my teenage years and I don’t think she even knows it. I hope she lives 100 more years 🙏

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

When entering the home, I come in slowly and talk to them in a gentle, high-pitched voice. I usually try to get low to the ground by crouching or sitting on the floor so that they feel less intimidated. Then I let me smell me, and if they rub themselves onto my hand, I will slowly pet them. If they turn away, I’ll sit for a bit more and talk to them, refill food and water and clean their litter in a quiet and calm manner. Then I’ll come back to them to let them sniff again, and just let them get more familiar with my presence. Often times a toy or some treats will help them engage with me, but I will never push them out of their comfort zone. It’s common for kitties become anxious when meeting someone new, so I try my best to make them feel safe!

I have trusted Yuehan to care for my cats for over 10 years, and I honestly can’t imagine a better cat sitter. Over that time, I’ve had both an older cat (who has since passed and is now with the angels) and a younger one. My older one was more anxious and needed a gentle caretaker whereas my kitten is a lot more playful/rowdy. Yuehan has been wonderful with both! My older cat required daily oral medication and could sometimes be fussy about it but Yuehan handled it calmly, confidently, and with so much care. I always felt completely at ease knowing my cats were not only being looked after, but genuinely cared for. Yuehan is incredibly attentive, patient, and intuitive with cats. I’ve always returned home to my babies very happy, and that peace of mind is priceless.

Frequently Asked Questions

Washington cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
