Learn More About Kellen

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have one 2 year old dilute calico named Rue! She is a big personality - always hanging out nearby, playing constantly, and curious about anything and everything. She’s such a light in my life!

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

Questions and more questions! I like to take notes and walk through what a typical visit looks like. I also like to ask about kitties quirks - anything that might be surprising or unique to them I should be aware of. I also prefer to meet over the phone or in person beforehand if possible, to see how the animal reacts to me and their owner, and get a walkthrough of the space and where everything is located (food, toys, meds, grooming supplies, napping spots, etc) I like to be thorough up front, and communicate throughout!

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Cat sitting is not just about taking care of an animal but also the home and space. Security is one of my top priorities - I always want to check with owners about their animals tendency to escape or hide and make sure I’m careful when opening and closing doors outside or to stairwells and basements. Oppositely, if a cat is timid and hides, I still like to lay eyes on them every visit to make sure they’re doing okay. When it comes to the home, I am diligent about locking windows and doors, and also tend to turn on and off different lights so the home looks lived in and occupied.

We couldn't be happier with Kellen! As this was our first time using her services for our four cats, we were slightly nervous, but she quickly put us at ease. Over the course of a week, she demonstrated outstanding attention to detail, adhering to every feeding and medication instruction we left. Beyond the basics, she was fantastic about providing one-on-one playtime and giving them the enrichment they needed. She was excellent about sending updates and immediately contacting us with any small concerns to confirm everything was alright. Her genuine dedication to their well-being truly sets her apart. Highly, highly recommend Kellen for anyone looking for a reliable and genuinely caring pet sitter!

I had a great experience having Kellen take care of my cats while I was out of town. She was prompt about updates when she got to my apartment, and my cats were so happy to have someone hang out with them for a bit and play with them and give them attention. I also really appreciated the AM and PM availability and her willingness to do a meet and greet prior to the booking. Would definitely book with her again!

Frequently Asked Questions

Minneapolis 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.
