Learn More About Joellen

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love just being around cats. I love all their different personalities, no matter if they’re more aloof & too themselves or more cuddly and playful. I love playing w them and being around happy cats.ith

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I don’t have any kitties right now and I am disappointed about that. I cannot wait to have one again when I get my new apartment!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

I would say go forward with one that shows compassion and empathy and also great communication.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I don’t mind this at all. I accept the cats for whatever personality traits they have. I will sit on the couch or floor and just stay still mostly while reading. But also after awhile I will try to find them, call their name and call for them. Give them a play toy.

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.
