I'm Kristen | Cat Sitting in Minneapolis, MN

Hi! I'm Kristen and I've had cats for over 30 years (wow). That's a lot of litterbox scooping! I've had the joy of having 5 cats in that time. My current cat Sophie is a 3 year old Tortie. We took her in when her owner passed away. Her main goal in life is to snuggle and taunt our dogs. It's a game for her and they are...

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have been cat sitting for clients since 2019 and for friends and family before that. I try to emulate what you would normally do for them, especially play time, if they enjoy that. Does your cat love attention? I'm happy to provide attention if they are up for it.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy spending time with different cats. Each one has a different personality. I also want cat parents to feel at ease of their time away and know that their furry friend is safe and being well cared for. I feel joy when sharing all the cute pictures with the parents every day.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

Boris! Boris is a handsome British Short-hair. While British Short-hairs are not known to be cuddly in the typical sense, Boris shows his affection in other ways. He is always close by and is interested in everything I do. He loves to eat (and looks like Garfield) so he's on a special diet. His other love is his toys. He plays fetch (on his terms) and loves the lure poles. He will often pick out a toy and bring it to me to play. He makes me laugh with all his antics. I remember the first time I sat for him. He hid most of the weekend. Now I'm one of his human friends. His parents book me exclusively.

This is the first time I used the Meowtel app. I read Kristen's bio and something just clicked. My Gracie is a sweet girl, 19 yrs old and needs meds twice a day. Kristen mastered that perfectly. Gracie ate well and when I got home after 9 days she was in great spirits and didn't ignore me. Also, everything was clean and orderly. We love Kristen!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

If you are not fully satisfied with your sitter after the Meet & Greet or during the reservation, please call 1-844-636-9835 so we can help you re-book with a new sitter to ensure we can deliver on our purrfect hospitality promise.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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.
