Im Natalie, a lifelong cat lover with hands on experience for all kinds of feline personalities. I grew up with cats, including one strong-willed queen who had two litters of kittens while I was a teen. That experience taught me everything from socializing newborns to respecting boundaries with cats who need their space. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or a little “spicy”, I meet them with calm, loving energy and lots of patience. I’m confident around even the sassiest of kitties and treat every cat like they’re my own, with care, respect, and attentive to their needs.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

As much as I adore my spunky Pomeranian, her personality does not compare to the complex uniqueness that comes with each individual cat. I love the challenge that comes with meeting new cats and learning their quirks.

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

I’d tell them to hire someone who really gets cats — not just someone who loves animals, but someone who knows how to read feline body language and respect their space. Every cat is different, so a great sitter should ask questions about your cat’s routine, likes, dislikes, and any quirks. I always make sure to get all the details upfront — feeding schedule, litter box habits, hiding spots, favorite toys, so your cat feels comfortable and safe while you’re away. Good communication and daily updates also go a long way in giving you peace of mind.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I’m very detail-oriented when it comes to both the home and the cat’s well-being. I always make sure doors and windows are securely closed and locked before I leave. I pay close attention to any changes in your cat’s behavior and make sure their routine is followed exactly. I’m also very aware of the space, if something falls, breaks, or seems out of place, I handle it right away to prevent your cat from getting hurt. I treat your home with care and your cat like family, so everything stays clean, safe, and stress-free while you’re away.

Natalie was amazing! I went overseas for a week, and it was incredibly stressful at first trying to find someone I could trust to look after my senior cat. She made the whole experience worry-free. She sent me pictures every single day, was super responsive, and you could tell she genuinely cared about Smitty. He was so happy and well taken care of when I got home. I highly recommend Natalie—she’s truly outstanding and will definitely be my go-to cat sitter whenever I travel again!

Response from Natalie

So happy to care for Smitty while you were away. Matthew made looking after him simple with all of his help and quick replies. Thank you so much for your kind words and support! I’d gladly look after Smitty again.

I’d never used a cat sitter before and previously only trusted family members to watch my fur babies. I was unsure about having a stranger in my home taking care of my Puna, but I trusted Natalie immediately after our meet-and-greet. Natalie prioritized keeping Puna’s routine consistent and asked thoughtful questions to learn her daily habits. She reassured me with regular updates — photos and videos — and sent a photo that perfectly captured Puna’s inquisitive gaze. I chose 20-minute visits, yet Natalie still made time for play and cuddles. Her calm, conscientious approach exceeded my expectations. Natalie is experienced, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. I’ll happily hire her again and recommend her to any cat owner seeking dependable, loving care.

Natalie was extremely detailed, communicative and thoughtful with all our babies! We knew we could enjoy our time away because they were being taken care of and we had updates each time. She was also flexible as we needed to ensure the cats had the best experience. We knew it went well when we got home and the cats were happy and calm.

We recently moved, so leaving our four cats in a strange new home while we traveled could have been incredibly stressful. Natalie put us completely at ease! She made sure the cats were happy, well-fed, and comfortable, communicated with us frequently, and even helped resolve a few minor home issues while we were away. She was caring, dependable, and absolutely wonderful. Highly recommended!

Natalie was absolutely wonderful with our three fur babies! From the moment our young cats met her, there was an instant connection. It was clear right away that she genuinely loves animals and takes so much pride in the care she provides. While we were away, she gave our cats all the love, attention, and playtime they needed. She was meticulous with their food, water, and litter boxes, and even went above and beyond by bringing in our packages. We especially appreciated the frequent updates and adorable photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter and would absolutely trust Natalie with our pets again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family!

Natalie is wonderful. I trusted her implicitly to stay in my home and take care of my cat. She communicated really well with information and photos. She was really sensitive to the fact that my cat is just settling into a new home, and handling everything gently. 5 stars, well-earned!

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.

Westwood 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 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!
