My partner calls me the world's best cat dad all the time. She and I are proud caretakers for two wonderful cats, Olympia (6 year old female) and Milo Rohan III (11 year old male). I have over a decade of experience with cats and consider myself well versed in their care, having served as a catsitter for close friends many times. I treat all cats with kindness and respect their boundaries. I am also a very respectful house guest so you can count on me to leave everything in as good condition as I found it. If you're reading this, I hope I can be a dependable, trustworthy sitter for you. Please message me with any questions, I'd love to get acquainted.

Learn More About Ismael

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

I have been an occasional cat sitter for close friends and tend to be the favored sitter between me and my partner.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I don't celebrate any major holidays except the New Year, but I get most holidays off from my full-time job. I am available year-round outside of business hours.

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

I try to coax them out with treats to show I'm a safe person but don't approach them if they seem unwilling to socialize. I start slow to gain their trust and try very hard to not break it if/once I gain it. Ultimately I know enough about cats to know they'll do what they want. I try to give them a reason to want to trust me but if I can't, I leave them alone.

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.

Charlotte cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!
