Chelsea was absolutely incredible!! It’s hard for me to leave our sweet asthmatic only child cat when we vacation. He has separation anxiety and misses us tons. Chelsea did an amazing job administering his meds, feeding him meals, and keeping him company! Her text updates were the best and were a huge part of what made me able to relax on our trip. I’m so thankful we found her!

Chelsea was wonderful with my cat Wonton. She went above and beyond to take care of her and I had peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands while I wasn’t home. She sent regular updates, played with and fed her on her normal schedule, and even got rid of flowers I didn’t realize were poisonous to cats. I’ll definitely be booking her again!

Chelsea was absolutely fantastic! My cat was diagnosed with conjunctivitis right before we left and needed eye medications twice daily - Chelsea was a godsend! She responded quickly to all messages, was able to take care of medications, and gave us updates with every visit. Highly recommended!

Chelsea is a wonderful sitter! One of our kitties is figuring out some health changes and Chelsea was able to administer his subcutaneous injection without difficulty. She also sends the best updates - I love seeing all the pictures she sends!

Chelsea is the best pet sitter, hands down! She has cared for my two cats many times and she is always so helpful and accomodating. This last time I was out of the country with no phone service and she still came through when I was unexpectedly out of communication (from day 1!) and even provided care when my flight was delayed. I always come home to happy cats and feel like they are in such capable hands.

Chelsea was great She left comprehensive notes for both me and my neighbor who also looked into Katy care. Also did cleanup near litter box. Not my first time using service, previously Alex took care of Katie but he moved out of the area. Would definitely use Chelsea in the future. Chuck.

Chelsea was an amazing pet sitter! I received so many photo updates, and the cats looked like they were having a great time. Chelsea went out of her way to make sure they felt loved and happy, and even cleaned up after them. I will definitely book again if I head out of town.

Purr usual, we were able to enjoy our vacation because Chelsea took such great care of our kitty boy! She genuinely cares for our guy, is super on top of feeding and medicine, and gives the best updates. I don't know what we'd do without her!

Chelsea was amazing!! She didn't have the availability I originally wanted so I messaged and asked. She was able to fit me in and I'm so glad! She put my mind at ease with great updates and went above and beyond taking in packages for me and putting food in the fridge so it wouldn't go bad. Anybody with a cat in this area should hire Chelsea!

Frequently Asked Questions

Portland 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 $30.00. 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.
