I'm Kate
Cat Sitting in Honolulu, HI
I have a special feline familiar of my own named Grimm. He is two years old and a little bit lazy these days. So much so that I’ve considered getting another kitty that might like to play a little more often... Aloha! My name’s Kate and I’m a lifelong lover of all things cat! I adore their curiosity and independence. They have personalities all their own, and I respect that they might not always be open to physical touch. I have always made an effort to read their body language and wait for their cues before going in for the snuggles. My family often called me the cat whisperer, as the majority of them seem to warm up fairly easily to me. I’m the girl at the party petting the kitty outside or trying to “pss pss pss” strays and community cats.
I have a special feline familiar of my own named Grimm. He is two years old and a little bit lazy these days. So much so that I’ve considered getting another kitty that might like to play a little more often. So, this is an amazing opportunity for me to get out some of my kitty fever!
I’m a stay at home mom most of the time. My son and I visited the Hawaiian Humane Society for years, almost religiously, to play with the cats. We also helped feed some of the cat colonies here. I’ve also been a hula hoop dance teacher for over ten years. I love ways to foster the playful inner kid in all of us.
I’m available for cat sitting in the Honolulu area, and my schedule is pretty flexible. I have fur babies of my own, so I know how important it is to have the peace of mind to know they’re getting all the love and attention they need. I’d love to help make sure your kitties are well loved and taken care of while you’re away. I can visit once or twice a day, depending on your needs. Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have. No question is a bad question. Thanks for reading!

Kate was amazing with our two high maintenance senior fur babies. She was highly communicative, detail oriented, and flexible about all the details of our cats’ meds and special foods, and she sent lots of picturew wvery visit. Our very shy kitty warmed up to her quickly and when we came home, we could tell both kitties were calm and felt well cared for. I’d highly recommend Kate to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter!

Kate is an actual angel I'm not kidding. We were super nervous to leave our kitty for the first time without a family member and Kate exceeded all of our expectations tenfold. I absolutely adored our daily photos and updates and could tell from my cat's body language how comfortable and happy he was in her company (he literally fell asleep in her lap laying belly up like a human baby). She also went above and beyond in addition to loving the fur baby - she tidied up his litter box area when he lad a flinging-litter party, tidied up his miscreant activity when he got into the pantry to find snacks, and tidied up his food area & washed his bow / food can & utensils (he is still learning manners). We are so grateful to have found Kate and are planning on begging her to help us again for the next trip.

Another great experience with Kate! We got daily updates with photos. Our cats seemed perfectly content when we got home from a week away, and they didn't even give us the usual cold shoulder for leaving them!

We couldn’t be happier with the care our cats received! Kate came by twice a day and made sure they were well-fed, had clean water, clean litter box, and plenty of playtime. We could tell our cats were in great hands, as they were calm and happy when we returned. The updates and photos were an added bonus that put our minds at ease while we were away. It’s clear Kate truly cares about animals, and we will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!

Kate was a super stellar cat sitter for my two finicky Siamese cats! This is the second time I’ve used her services and she is always alert to anything that may not be normal and conveys good useful information along with the cutest kitty photos and updates. She is trustworthy and puts you at ease while you’re away from your lovies. Thank you Kate!! 😻😻

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.
Honolulu cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $28.00. 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!

Kate was a kitty owner's dream come true. Our Kitty is a spunky playful love bug that is very shy with strangers. Kate didn't push Ember to interact with her. She understands cat behavior and gradually built trust with our kitty girl. Ember popped out to see her on the first day and started to play with Kate by day two. By day four, she let Kate pet her and hung out with her as Kate prepped her food. Kate took great care of our cat. Our kitty was fed, had her water refreshed, litter scooped, and gave Ember playtime with any time left. Kate let me know each day how things were going and sent precious pics. So grateful to have a cat sitter I can trust and like so much.

My cats took to her right away- even my very skiddish cat. I had an ant infestation while I was gone- ants took over the cat food in my auto feeder. Kate informed me right away, cleaned up and refilled with fresh food. She also vacuumed so I wouldn't have to come home and clean after vacation!

This was our second time choosing Kate for our senior girl, and once again she was attentive, caring and communicative! We had zero worries during our week away, knowing our kitty was in the absolute best hands, and we always looked forward to hearing the latest update. She even got our very picky girl to enjoy some treats! Kate truly is a cat whisperer and we are so thankful!

Kate was an absolute dream to work with. She paid attention to our senior girl, gave her plenty of pets and took care of her needs just as if she were her own kitty. She even cleaned up a few “accidents” outside the litter box. we really appreciated all the photos (we got at least 5 for every visit) and detailed updates each time Kate stopped by. We were nervous since we had never used a sitter before, but Kate is awesome and a total pro. She put our minds at ease and we didn’t worry about our kitty at all. 12/10 would recommend! 😽

Our fur babies took to Kate immediately at our meet and greet! She’s a lovely person and we could tell right away that she is a very capable and caring individual. Kate sent cute pics every time she cared for our two cats and went above and beyond when a separate issue arose at our home which Kate promptly brought to our attention. We are so grateful for her and the excellent kitty care she provided! We highly recommend her and are already planning our next family getaway!

I've used Kate at least half a dozen times and she will continue to be my first choice... she always takes good care of my little furbaby, and it is is clear that Kate knows my cat's quirks and little fuzzy tendencies well because she cares.

Kate stepped in at the last minute after our usual sitter had a sudden emergency. She quickly accommodated us and took care about learning about our kitties’ needs. She did everything as we agreed to and, most importantly, she was very attentive to any behavioral changes. Our kittens were clearly happy during this period. Kate takes the best cat photos, we saved each and every one!

I could not be happier with how well Kate took care of my cats. None of my 3 cats are well socialized, and Kate was able to charm all of them. The only problem is that I think they are disappointed that I am home and she won’t be visiting them. I highly recommend Kate.

Kate has looked after my 2 kitties on two different occasions when I was out of town for an extended time. She did an amazing job and went above and beyond with sending me updates and cute pictures, and being super communicative in general. I feel really comfortable knowing that my babies are taken such good care of when I’m away and I can tell that Kate genuinely cares about them and wants them to be happy. Thanks for everything, Kate!

I've used Kate a few times, and she never disappoints! She clearly loves animals and does such a great job with my little fur-baby. I will use her every chance I get for that alone... But she's also smart and attentive to all kinds of details -- she constantly goes above and beyond... she's taken out my trash, refilled my dish-soap dispenser when it was running low on soap, recharged devices when their batteries were low, and when there was a power outage she let me know and then I walked her thru hooking my refrigerator up to my backup battery / generator. BEST CAT-SITTER EVER!

wow wow wow!!! There’s not much I can say to describe how great Kate is! My kitty (Pickle) is quite dramatic and doesn’t like people very much, but by the end of our visits Pickle was all over her! Kate did so much to make sure that I felt secure, and I was able to enjoy a vacation for the first time without anxiety that my clingy cat would be sad or causing trouble. If you’re unsure, this is your sign, book Kate!

On top of Kate being everything you and kitties could ask for, she really steps up. When my return flight got cancelled and I could not get back for many days, she anticipated every need, taking the worry away so I could focus on everything else I needed to take care of while stuck in the East Coast.

I cannot say enough about what great care Kate took of my cats. They were in great moods when I got home after being away for 11 days. She gave them their medicine every morning and kept everything clean. I especially appreciated the photos and messages to update me. I would recommend Kate to anyone who wants superior care for their cats.
