Itoshi was great with our three kitty babies! She gave informative updates and devoted time and care to each cat.

Itoshi was our very first cat sitter and she was incredible. We came home to a happy kitty and an orderly apartment. Her daily photos and videos made us feel confident that kitty was well taken care of. Itoshi was a superstar in problem-solving when our kitty had a spot of diarrhea and when we left her a can of food that had no tab. She got the kitty so happy and comfortable that our precious kitty allowed her to do belly rubs. We would love to have Itoshi cat sit for us on our next vacation.

Itoshi was super communicative and friendly. My cat was shy when she came to get the keys but warmed up to her really quickly during the visit. I can tell Mochi was really happy to play with her.

Itoshi is so great! I have two cats, both of whom are ridiculous in their own way 😹😝 My girl Sylvie can be very shy and Milo boy can also be a little more aloof with the ladies, but they warmed up to Itoshi in no time. At one point, the kitties broke into the treat vault and ate most of their goodies. Itoshi took care of the mess, found a new place to put what was left of the treats, and still got those 2 fur balls to come out and play, despite knowing they were in trouble. I also had a very large full-length mirror delivered to the apartment while I was away and Itoshi brought it in without even being asked. Cannot recommend Itoshi enough. Kind, respectful, reliable- I will definitely call on Itoshi again.

Itoshi is such a life saver. My babies absolutely loved her. One of my fur babies, who is generally very shy, surprisingly comes out whenever Itoshi visits! I saw how my babies reacted to her presence at our meet and greet. They just love her presence. she gave me a very detailed message on what was done during the visit, and sends me lots of photos and videos of my babies. Made me still feel like I was there. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs their babies looked after while parents are gone on short or long vacays.

Itoshi was fantastic. She was very communicative and my Hendrix (who is very picky about people) loved her right away. She paid attention to and communicated little details, like the fact that my cat fountain wasn't running correctly. I would absolutely use her again and she allowed me to enjoy my time away without worrying about my boy.

Itoshi is as professional, educated & loving as it gets! Everytime Itoshi visits my baby boy I know he is getting quality care and love. My kitty is very picky and he absolutely adores Itoshi! I would recommend her to anyone I know who need quality kitty care❤️

Itoshi is a wonderful and caring cat sitter. She is my go-to when we need to travel. I’m so thankful she was able to watch my sweet boy Ernest. Although, I do have an automatic feeder for quick trips - I do notice that Ernest is happier when we get home having been watched by Itoshi.

My cat is in love with Itoshi! Everytime she visits he gives her immense affection (something he doesn’t do with a lot of people) & learns new tricks! When Itoshi comes & sees Salem I feel at ease knowing he’s getting quality time with someone that genuinely cares for & understands him!

Itoshi is amazing!! My anxious cat Salem warmed up to her instantly and she knew exactly how to navigate his moods. She is reliable, sweet, knowledgeable about cats & even taught my Salem a new trick! it gave me such a piece of mind to know Salem was being taken care of Itoshi :)

Itoshi took such good care of our three cats while we were away for a week! We could tell that they really bonded with her and when we got back they were healthy and happy. We were scrambling to find a new sitter when our usual sitter wasn't available, and we are so grateful to have met Itoshi. She was great with them, and we so appreciated the good communication by text and the photo updates. She happens to be an amazing cat photographer :)

My wife and I were very grateful to Itoshi for agreeing to look after Pepper for the weekend. In our meet and greet, Pepper hissed and scratched her! She felt confident that next time would be different and was up for the challenge. She is very professional, capable and reliable. We will definitely pick her to sit our cat next time. Thank you Itoshi!

Itoshi watched my kitty-boy over the holidays and gave me a daily report with photos that I shared with my extended family. We looked forward to getting them everyday. My cat can be very shy at first but each photo showed a happy, playful and affectionate cat. She was sweet enough to give him a catnip toy on Christmas! It’s hard to travel and leave your beloved cat behind and it’s comforting to know he was in good hands.

Itoshi was absolutely wonderful. She was very loving and attentive to our cat, Maurice. She sent us pictures and videos daily and provided updates. Maurice seemed completely relaxed and stress free when we got back, and we were relaxed knowing he was in good hands! We highly recommend her!

Frequently Asked Questions

Elmhurst cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $32.00. 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.
