Malia's Reviews
Farrah
Malia was amazing! Jax took to her immediately. I was so anxious going on vacation and leaving some stranger in my home and watching my baby, but she exceeded all expectations. I’m extremely happy with the service and with her. She took the time at every visit to update me with pictures and short clips of Jax, his food, water and litter. Would definitely book her again!

Malia was such a perfect friend for my cat while I was gone! She gave very thorough and kind updates on how he was doing as well as when she was switching food/litter. She also left a little printed picture she took of him when i got back :) Will absolutely book again! Thank you so much!

When I first reached out to Malia requesting a sitter for my cat Southie, I let her know that Southie was a sweetheart but was also super attached to me so she could be a little less than welcoming with new people when I wasn’t around. Without missing a beat, Malia told me she was determined to win “Queen Southie” over. I was impressed by how ambitious she was but realistically just hoped that Southie didn’t go too much into “Off with their heads!” mode while I was gone for the week. It was such a pleasant surprise to receive daily videos and photos of Southie nuzzling and head bunting Malia, and rolling around on the living room rug belly up. Every day Malia sent me a detailed visit summary including updates plus photos on her raw food being defrosted, her water fountain levels, hairball treat consumption, and freshness and tidiness of Southie’s litter box. But where Malia really stood out was by indulging Southie’s wand play obsession. Southie is two and has quite a strong prey drive, and chasing the little attachment at the end of the wand is very much one of her main love languages. I got so many hilarious clips of Southie pouncing and jumping around. God bless her, Malia even tried to brush Southie, and even though that wasn’t exactly successful I felt the entire time I was gone that Malia treated her with love, care, and respect — I could not have asked for a better cat sitter. Queen Southie definitely gave her the royal seal of approval!

Malia is a great sitter. Meet and greet was easy and she sent daily updates while I was away. Everything was clean and I returned home to a happy cat. I will request to book Malia again if can.

Frequently Asked Questions
The average price for a cat sitter is $32.00.
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.
