Shelby was fantastic all the way around. I received photos every day of the cat and the care she was given. Clean water bowls with ice, fresh food and some playtime and love. I came home after almost two weeks to a clean home, Shelby left everything just like when I left. That made coming home even better. My cat looked healthy and happy. I highly recommend Shelby.

Shelby is a perfect sitter. She was excellent at making sure feeding my two cats and keeping the litter box clean a top priority. My cats are shy and she took pictures of them daily to make sure I knew they were safe and sound. She definitely went above and beyond & I recommend her to anyone.

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.
Atlanta cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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!

Shelby was wonderful! Updates and pictures were sent daily so I could see how my girls were doing. I appreciated her quick responses to any additional Qs or comments I had about their behavior (one was a bit skittish at first), food (one cat needed a daily pill) and playing. It was nice to see they had Shelby’s visits to look forward to everyday. 😺

Shelby is AMAZING!!! She’s our 3rd cat sitter I’ve used from Meowtel and she’s top tier! I came home to a very clean litter area and my cats were so happy. It’s like I never left. She gave them puzzles and treats each visit and sent me such sweet updates with short little videos. LOVE her🤍

We’re so thankful for Shelby! We were very nervous leaving our two boys for a long weekend, and Shelby put us at ease. She followed all of our feeding instructions to a T and gave our boys plenty of play time. She was reliable, communicative, and she embraced our spunky kitties. Highly recommend!!

Shelby has been so resourceful and helpful in a very last-minute hunt for a cat-sitter. Not that I would recommend doing so, but I happened to be in a rush while looking for someone to see my cat while being out of town. Shelby went out of her way to ensure that we were able to figure out a way to coordinate things. While I hope I don't have to rush things next time, I really appreciated it! She also took great care of my cat and sent me a lot of reassuring updates on how he was doing. Would highly recommend!!!
