Cat Sitting in Minneapolis, MN

Hi feline friends! I am a lifelong cat lover/owner with over six years of professional pet care experience. I rescued my current purr-machine back in 2020 and although he was a challenge at first, I have learned so much from him in the way of unique cat behaviors. I have cared for dozens of kitties over the years and understand the variety of communication styles, quirks, and individual needs quite well. No two cats are the s... Hi feline friends! I am a lifelong cat lover/owner with over six years of professional pet care experience. I rescued my current purr-machine back in 2020 and although he was a challenge at first, I have learned so much from him in the way of unique cat behaviors. I have cared for dozens of kitties over the years and understand the variety of communication styles, quirks, and individual needs quite well. No two cats are the same and should be treated as such. I am also an active volunteer and advocate for a local animal rescue organization, with a lot of cat care included in my duties. I am respectful of boundaries and don’t mind if a cat doesn’t want to interact, they deserve as much care and attention to detail as any other! I look forward to meeting your whiskered-friends and guarantee that they will thank you for letting me in to their lives.

Learn More About Marley

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

I have been cat sitting for over six years; the majority of my adult life. I have done a variety of overnights and drop-in visits with a range of personalities of cats. Past clients would assure you I am very caring and pay close attention to detail.

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

Coordinate a meet and greet first and see how the potential sitter interacts with your cat and how your cat responds. Cats have strong boundaries that require a lot of respect and understanding - make sure a sitter is capable of navigating those boundaries!

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes! I especially enjoy providing care for cats that would otherwise be left alone or unattended for long stretches of time. Plus, it brings me joy to spend time with a cat in need of care while their owners are enjoying their holidays; peace of mind is a wonderful thing.

Medication Experience:

Topical Ointments Eye/Ear Drops Oral Medication / Pills Subcutaneous Fluids Inhalers

11/10!! Could not be happier with the service and care my two cats received. Marley spent time playing with them, cuddling them, and made sure to send me several updates during each visit. I was expecting attitude from my cats after leaving them for 3 days, but they couldn’t have cared less when I returned 😂 a clear sign they were so well cared for they didn’t even realize I was gone!

Marley was very quick to respond and the initial meet and greet went smoothly. She gave me updates on my cat's mood and any grooming that was able to be performed. Diet instructions were also followed and my cat seemed perfectly fine after her visit! I will be reaching out again for future work trips since!

Frequently Asked Questions

Reservations officially begin at 12:00 AM in the sitter's time zone on the start date. Cat Parents may cancel within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund, as long as the reservation has not yet started. After the first 24 hours, the following cancellation rules apply:


  • More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.

  • Within 24 hours of the reservation start date (or after it has begun): No refund. The sitter will earn 100% of their planned earnings.

All refunds are initially applied to the Cat Parent's Meowtel Account Balance for use toward a future reservation or tip. Funds may be returned to the original payment method at any time.

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 $30.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
