I'm Michelle | Cat Sitting in Raleigh, NC
Hello! I'm Michelle---a long time fan of Meowtel's sitter services, and an ardent cat-lover since I was a little girl (yes, I was the "cat kid"). 😽 Our family always had cats (mostly tabby boys) of all ages, and now I'm the overjoyed owner and bff of Ted, a wonderful 13-year-old rescue boy! For years, I have helped friends out with their pets---giving medication, cuddles, and occasionally staying over with the ones who need some extra TLC. I'm a communicative, caring, and responsible gal in my mid-30's and--as a cat mom myself--here to give the same quality of love I'd want my fur-baby to receive in my absence! In 2015, I volunteered at Safe Haven Cat Shelter in Raleigh (where I adopted Ted) and learned extra tips and tricks for speci...

Michelle's Reviews
Sarah
Michelle is a wizard, we are so lucky to have her help care for our crew of 5! She managed multiple special diets and meds, and even helped our shyest guy find a way out of his impenetrable fortress of anxiety. I can't say enough about how great she is!
Melissa
My gang of cats is pretty high maintenance but Michelle handeled them like a champ! I have four extremely food motivated kitties (who act like they’ve never eaten before at every meal time) and one of them who requires daily medications, and at the time of her visit, different food as well. Michelle paid extra attention to my shy guy Cayman and made sure he was able to eat his food without being bullied by others and spent extra time befriending him. I loved getting her updates and pictures at the end of every visit!
Emma
Michelle always goes above and beyond. I know by boys always look forward to seeing Michelle!
Helene
Michelle was absolutely great to work with! It was my first time having her look after my cat. She was very professional, sent me daily updates, pictures of them playing together, and even took the trash she had been using for the litter out on the last day. It’s never easy leaving your furry friend, but Michelle made this whole process feel seamless and comfortable for both me and Gatsby!
Jamie

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Raleigh cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. 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.
