Learn More About Melis

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

I have watched three of my neighbors’s cats. Two households had 2 and 3 cats respectively. I have given medicine to an elderly cat of theirs and to one of my cats. I always took photos daily of the cats and sent them to the cat owners. I spent 30 minutes with them, petting and playing with them. I have one cat myself right now. I adopted her knowing she had some health issues. With the proper care, she recovered within 4 months. This is my first time on this sight as a sitter. Rest assured I have many years of experience watching other people’s cats. They hav trusted that I will take care of their fur babies well!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I really like meeting new cats. They all have their own distinct personality. They have different ways of showing me they trust me.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My cat is 10 years old and I adopted her June 2023. Her name is Haiti. She is the most affectionate cat that I’ve lived with. She sleeps on top of me nightly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Washington 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.
