2. My long-term goal in life is to open a foster hospice (fospice) for elderly and sick cats. I love all cats, but elderly/special needs kitties are my very favorite.

3. I became a cat lady in 2001, and haven't been without a cat in my life since then.

4. Currently, I run my own business of pet sitting and dog walking, and there is no place I'd rather be than surrounded by animals.

5. If I sit for you, I will treat your cat(s) like they were my own. They will be loved, cherished, and taken excellent care of.

6. Even if you don't book me, thank you so much for taking the time to read my profile. I truly appreciate it 💖

Learn More About Anne

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

As mentioned in my profile introduction, I have 7 cats. Their names are: Eagan, 17. Marshmallow, 16. Sullivan, 8. Tommen, 7. Joe Meower, 6. Sven, 4. Ole, 4.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Always! As a professional pet sitter, my busiest times are the holidays, and I love being able to offer cat parents a reliable sitter during all major (and minor!) holidays.

What is your favorite cat toy?

The Cat Dancer. It's simply a wire with small pieces of cardboard attached to the end. It's so simple, and every cat loves it!

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

I give them all the space and time they need. I always let the cats set the pace of our relationship.

Anne was excellent as always. One of our kitties decided to be a jerk and hide for three days, and Anne set up a camera we forgot to activate before we left - showing kitty safe and sound! we had really been panicked and she went the extra mile.

Anne instantly had a connection with my shy boys. Normally, Treble and Bass run and hide when anyone new comes over, but within 5 minutes, Treble was saying hello to her. Anne didn’t have any issues with Bass’s medication even though he can be a picky prince about taking it. She sent pictures everyday of the kitties. I definitely recommend Anne!

Anne was great! My cats have a complicated relationship with each other (translation, they must be kept separated) and Anne negotiated the choreography of room changing. I came home to happy cats!

I am giving her two stars as she did show up on time and followed the feeding instructions. However, she didn't give the cats really any attention. We have cameras in multiple areas when we go on vacation. We saw her just sitting playing on her phone. We have 3 cats (1 is shy) who love attention! They were at her feet rubbing against her and she just ignored them. One even was in her lap and he was nudging her phone, and she just brought her phone higher. He then walked away. They also love to play, but she didn't attempt that at all. Her updates were very basic and the photos weren't great. We hired her because of her great reviews and the good meet and greet, but were highly disappointed after watching the footage.

Anne is always fantastic. Inspite of the fact we might go without talking to one another 6 months at a time she's so easy to pick right back up with! Anne always does a great job taking care of our kitties! Some need medication and whether it's liquid or pill they continue to recieve it on time. Her communication rocks! Not only does she send us pictures, but she's always letting us know if she notices anything different about the kitties in case we weren't aware. There is no one in the world we feel more comfortable leaving their care to than Anne and we appreciate how easy she's made it for us to get away!

Anne was quick to respond when my initial sitter fell through! I had never used this service before and was in a pinch, and a bit nervous that maybe it was too last minute. I’m so grateful for Anne’s flexibility and immediate ease I felt knowing Gibson was in good hands. When my lockbox was difficult to identify and I was without cell reception, she promptly got in touch with my emergency contact to problem solve to ensure my cat Gibson got cared for. Anne went above and beyond, was so kind and understanding. 10/10 would recommend Anne to look after your fur babies! Thank you Anne!! - Genevieve & Gibson

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.

Minneapolis cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $29.00. 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!
