Learn More About Gabriella

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

I have been cat sitting on and off for the past 7 years. Mostly for friends, but also for new families along the way. It’s always an enjoyable time to be around a new furry friend and I have no doubt I will enjoy your cat as well!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have one cat myself! His name is hazel and I have been taking care of him for the past 10 months. I’ve seen him grow from a kitten to a young adult, so believe I have seen it all.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

My process includes very open communication! I don’t have a problem asking or answering questions to leave no room for confusion. I want to make taking care of your cat as stress-free as possible.

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.

Washington cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
