This was the first time I had to leave my cat with stage 3 kidney disease alone for the day and I was extremely nervous but Ruth Anne was a god-send! She was extremely flexible, responsive, and followed every instruction to a T, not to mention that both my cats adore her. I was so relieved to know my babies were in great hands.

Ruth Anne was wonderful! This was the first time we didn't go through someone we already knew to care for our cats and I have to say it was an incredible experience. Our cats are very nervous around new people but they quickly warmed up to her. She kept us updated on how each visit was going with so much detail and included photos and videos. Our boy Charlie clearly fell in love with her right away and one of our girls who always hides and never lets new people come near her came out on the first day and let Ruth Anne pet her! One of our cats needs multiple medications including SubQ fluids and everything was handled smoothly. We are so grateful for the care she gave our cats and her attention to detail. Our cats clearly felt safe and well cared for. I feel lucky to have found Ruth Anne and we will definitely be working with her again.

Nanaimo had a great time (again) with Ruth Anne! I could tell our kitty missed his friend when we returned from our trip. Ruth Anne made sure Nanaimo was in tip top shape and even noticed small changes in him, like an extra itchy ear (which we got checked out at the vet when we were back)! She even brought him an extra snack when he ran out of his favorite Churus. Ruth Anne is the best at what she does - keeping kitties healthy, happy, and safe!

This was the third time that Ruth Anne has taken care of our Nanaimo while we’ve been away, and it was the longest trip we’ve taken so we were a little nervous being separated! But we had absolutely nothing to worry about because as usual, Ruth Anne was our kitty’s best friend for two weeks. She sent lots and lots of photos, videos, and updates on his health and temperament, it felt like we were there with them! They had such a good time playing together and invented new games like real besties. My kitty is so lucky to have Ruth Anne looking after him and keeping him healthy and safe! It gave us such peace of mind and really helped us fully enjoy our trip. Thank you Ruth Anne!!

My cat loved Ruth Anne. By the end of our two week Holiday, he was snuggling up to her. She was highly communicative and sent many updates everyday including pictures and videos. I would absolutely use Ruth Anne again and highly recommend her.

Ruth Anne was such a wonderful cat sitter! She sent lots of photos and updates which put me at ease knowing my cat was in good hands. She also went above and beyond making sure he was comfortable during a heat wave. I would definitely book her again!

My cat is prone to stress related issues, but Ruth Anne went above and beyond to help take care of her and ensure her needs were met during my trip. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Ruth Anne is an incredible cat sitter - the best, really - and has become my kitty’s best friend on our first trip away from him. Despite my kitty’s separation anxiety and poop issues, Ruth Anne helped him take all of his medication without issue and encouraged him to play and have fun! It was clear that Ruth Anne has a special touch with cats - I could see through the many many photos she sent that he had fallen in love with her. She really went above and beyond - each update was so rich with detail, even going as far as to describe his condition (with poop pics!), his mood, and what toys they played with that day! It was such a relief to know that she would be there to care for him, and it really helped ease our minds and allowed us to enjoy our time away. She went above and beyond each day, and even made sure everything was clean and taken care of upon our return (she took out the garbage and refreshed our litter genie! An angel!). I will definitely seek Ruth Anne out the next time we need a sitter - if you’re looking for a kind, patient, detail-oriented cat whisperer sitter, look no further, seriously!

It was so great getting to work with Ruth Anne again. She’s incredibly responsive, kept me up to date on when she’d be arriving and gave many updates while she was with my cat. Her attention to detail is amazing. My cat has an extensive list of medications which include Sub q fluids and she administered them all perfectly. I returned to a happy and “healthy” cat which is all I can ask for. Thanks Ruth Anne!

Ruth Anne did an amazing job taking care of our two kitties and gave us detailed updates along the way. She also handled our big guy's insulin shots with no problems!

I had never used an app like Meowtel before to find a sitter and was a bit nervous but Ruth Anne made the whole experience great and put me at ease. From the beginning she was extremely professional and communicative. During the visits she sent many photos and asked all the right questions of details I hadn’t thought to write down or were confusing. She was also great in keeping me up to date on the timing of when she would arrive. And most importantly, she followed my cats long medication schedule to a T. I also very much appreciate how understanding and flexible Ruth Anne was when I had a medical situation arrive with my cat 2 days before our reservation that caused me to need to change up my dates last minute. I’m very glad I have Ruth Anne booked already for a future visit as I’m looking forward to working with her again.

Ruth Anne took great care of our cats, with lots of pictures and detailed notes every day. We almost felt like we were having little daily visits with our cats when she was there. Our cats can be shy with strangers, but one of them came right up to her the first day, and both cats seemed very comfortable with her after a couple of days. She also came at a consistent time each day and let us known when she was on her way over, which was nice so we knew when to expect updates. We'll definitely book her again for our next trip!

Ruth was awesome! She gave us tons of phot and video updates during each visit, and our cat loved her company. Futhermore, she was super communicative about her arrival times and about the details of each visit, making us super confident that she was taking great care of our cat and our apartment. will definitely be hiring her again!

i couldn’t be more thankful for ruth anne and the love she showed our sweet strudel over the weekend. from the very beginning, it was clear how gentle and caring she is, and strudel was completely smitten with her. this was our first time leaving our kitty, and i was feeling pretty anxious, but ruth anne put my mind at ease right away. she kept in touch the whole time, sent the most precious photos and followed every little detail we shared with so much care (and let us know at the end of every visit what was done!). everything went so smoothly. we feel so lucky to have found someone as kind and thoughtful as ruth anne. we already can’t wait for the next trip knowing our girl will be in such loving hands. truly so grateful!

Ruth Anne is a terrific cat caregiver! I believe she has my 2 sweet boys under a spell! Her reports are timely and thorough... always including great photos! I highly recommend Ruth Anne.

Ruth Anne is the BEST! My boys, Lexi and Zander were so well taken care of that they greeted me shyly at first and warmed up quickly. I attribute this to the wonderful care that was given by Ruth Anne! I would not hesitate to recommend her to my friends, and only hope that Ruth Anne will be available for mu future cat care needs

We could not be happier with Ruth Anne’s care of our 1 year old cat while we were away on an extended trip. Ruth Anne was an excellent communicator- updating us about when she would be visiting, how the visits went and sending us the absolute best videos and pictures after each and every visit. She went above and beyond to make sure we were at ease while away from our boy. Everything from litter box care, food/water bowl cleaning, taking out garbage, bringing in packages, giving him treats, etc. We could tell our cat was so excited for each visit. Being away from your pet can be stressful and Ruth Anne really took the stress completely out of the equation for us which is truly priceless. We would absolutely recommend choosing Ruth Anne to watch your cat(s) whenever you are in need!

Ruth Ann was a fantastic cat sitter! She took great care in communicating with us to ensure that everything was done as we requested. She was able to provide the medicine one of my cats needs daily and helped us problem solve a water bowl issue (one of our cats love to turn it over). She also took time to play with our cats which I know they greatly appreciated as they have a lo of energy! She sent updates for each visit and took some fantastic photos of them.

I was so lucky to have Ruth Anne take care of my cats while I was away! Not only did she feed them and play with them daily, she gave medications to my elderly cat. Her daily reports were fun to read and the photographs that accompanied them showed how much my cats were enjoying their time with her.

Ruth Anne was amazing with my diabetic cat while I was out of town. Her messages are very detailed and she sends lots of cute pictures! She was very prompt with my cats feeding schedule, and administered his insulin with ease. 10/10 would book with her again!

Ruth Anne took amazing care of our kitty while we were away! This is the second time Ruth Anne has taken care of Nanaimo and he has definitely fallen for her - they had so much fun playing together and I could tell he was even more at ease this time around because he had a friend with him who he trusted! Ruth Anne sent lots of updates with the cutest pictures ever. It was so comforting to know she was taking care of our kitty and gave us tremendous peace of mind. Thank you Ruth Anne!

Always tough leaving your cat for 2.5 weeks but knowing she will be well cared for and thriving makes it do much easier. Ruth Anne is a real buddy to Sky and sends wonderful updates that we look forward to every day. Outstanding cat sitter.

Ruth Anne was the biggest blessing my cat and I could have ever received! I was extremely nervous leaving her alone with someone to do her inhaler for the first time but not only did Ruth Anne administer the medication flawlessly, my cat LOVED her! I got such detailed and incredible updates, along with so many photos and videos of her playing that I felt completely at peace with her caring for my babe! I am already planning to rebook Ruth Anne in the coming months and can’t recommend her more! Thank you so much for loving my baby so well while I was gone. You’re so appreciated!

Ruth is an amazing cat sitter. My cat needed some special care and attention with her health condition such as hypertension and diabetes etc... But Ruth did such a great job with giving her pills and insulin shots. Her updates are very in detailed with lots of pictures and videos. You can tell how she cares about your little furry friend.

Ruth Anne was an amazing sitter! She made sure during the meet and greet to ask everything she might need to know, and followed up with any additional questions via text before her first visit. Each of her visits ended with a thorough update of everything she did, how the cats generally were, and included tons of photos of the cats while they were playing. Ruth Anne was thorough and polite, and she even was sweet enough to clean up the cat toys back into their toy box at her last visit! I would absolutely recommend her for anyone, and plan to keep coming back to her for future sitter needs :)

I found Holiday's cat care when booking a last minute trip and I would book again! Ruth Anne gave great, detailed updates and pics. I looked forward to hearing about her daily experiences with my cat Mandy. My detailed instructions were followed exactly, you can tell she loves and cares for cats.

Ruth is great! Very responsive and kind through messaging. My shy cat warmed up to her very quickly. She sent me many photos, which made me very happy. She also asked questions that I didn’t think of, which was so helpful as a first time Meowtel user. I already booked her again!

Ruth Anne was amazing! Responded really fast. You can tell she really loves cats. She played with Thunder, brushed him and did everything else I requested. She gave great, detailed updates with lots of pics and videos. Will def use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a cat-sitter.

This is my second time booking Ruth Anne and she is so great to work with. Super responsive and she handled medication with my kitties like a pro. My cat takes subcutaneous fluids, medication by syringe, medication by tablet, and Ruth Anne has it all under control. Plus my kitties love her. You should definitely book her!

Our cat doesn’t always warm up to new people right away but she was best buds with Ruth Anne right away. I looked forward to all the daily photos of their playtime shenanigans. So nice to know she had a good time while we were away for a week.

Ruth Anne is an amazing cat sitter to my adult cat Walter. He took to her immediately which is quite the endorsement from a jumpy rescue! He had a wonderful time playing, and she introduced us both to cat TV! Ruth Anne is thoughtful, communicative, professional, and kind. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Ruth Anne watched my cats while I was away on a weekend trip and she was great. She was very responsive and sent detailed feedback as well as photos! Definitely would recommend her.

Ruth Anne was AMAZING!!! She was so through sending detailed updates and pictures of our kitty every time she visited. She was through and communicative and so nice to work with! Will look for her again next time we go out of town. Thanks Ruth Anne for making our trip so stress free!

Ruth Anne was great. So professional and organised. We felt totally at ease knowing that she was looking after Rosey PLUS she sent through wonderful and varied photos of Rosey (which is a hard thing to do over time). Highly, highly recommenced.

Ruth stepped in when our previous sitter had an emergency. She made sure that our cat was in good care and provided timely and thorough updates after her visits. Would definitely recommend Ruth!

Ruth Anne is a detailed caretaker, and I genuinely felt like she cared about my girls and that she was excited to visit with them. She updated me when she was on the way to our home and sent great photos and videos of my darlings!

Ruth Anne is wonderful! My sweet boy was completely comfortable with her after just one day and he’s an excellent judge of character! Her daily reports, photos, and videos made it easy to trust he was is great hands. Cat-sitting is clearly not just a job for her, she loved my baby!

I had Ruth Anne check on my two cats (one of which is a kidney cat) over the weekend. Ruth Anne was great with updates, and even better with my kitties. She was very patient with my shy kitty and my kidney kitty. She followed all my instructions amazingly and administered fluids and medication like a pro. My cat also struggles to eat and she made sure he ate enough on each visit. I felt very relaxed having Ruth Anne watch my cats - you should definitely book her!

Everything was perfect. Sky remembered her from previous bookings and enjoyed her visits from her Meowtel friend. From the photos it’s obvious they have a good rapport.

Ruth Anne is a great sitter. She stays in constant communication so that you know what's going on, gives detailed updates and includes lots of photos and videos as well. I feel reassured with her caring for my cats and will be happy to have her help again.

Ruth Anne was the best sitter we could have asked for our cats! Very communicative and attentive to their needs and sent us updates every day. We will be using her services going forward as we travel a fair amount, and I’m so glad we found someone we can trust and count on. I highly recommend hiring her to look after your cats as well!

Ruth Anne was very responsive and easy to make arrangements with. She took great care of my kitties and even the skittish one didn't hide from her. She was also great at following up after the visit. Highly recommended.

Ruth is so great with my Caruso! And she leaves really detailed messages with lots of pictures. Highly recommend.

Ruth Anne was INCREDIBLE with my needy babies!! She sent me so many detailed updates and pictures and actually took the time to play with my cats during every visit. They can be shy but they both warmed up to her right away. I was far away with spotty cell service and could still relax knowing that she was taking incredible care of my kitties.

Great photos and updates, always a pleasure to have Ruth Anne take care of my cat

We've always had a great experience with Ruth Anne. Her responsiveness, detailed updates and thoughtful demeanor always leaves us confident that our cat is in good hands, and we always come back to a relaxed, happy kitty!

There is a certain peace that comes with hiring Ruth Anne.. when she’s cat sitting for us, we know we don’t have to worry about a thing!

Ruth Anne is terrific! She kept my Lexi and Zander Happy and healthy!

Ruth Anne is AMAZING! We were away for a month this summer and I was nervous about leaving our cats for so long. I had no reason to be, they absolutely adored her. She went majorly above and beyond with their care and making sure everything ran smoothly. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Ruth Anne is really the best!! Very thorough, communicative, and a fellow cat lover. She’s always extremely patient and loving with our cats, who aren’t always super friendly. I can’t recommend her enough!

Ruth Anne went above and beyond taking care of our little ones over the holidays.

Ruth Anne has definitely become my go-to sitter for my cat Leo! She’s so nice, reliable, and all around a great sitter. She sends tons of pictures and videos, and Leo seems so happy to see her every time she comes. It makes it much easier to leave knowing he’s in such good hands!

This is a system-generated review due to a cancelation. This sitter canceled a confirmed booking 7 days before the start of the reservation.

Ruth Anne is an awesome cat sitter! She’s very kind and professional, and she took great care of my cat Leo. She definitely went above and beyond my expectations, and I loved the messages/pictures she sent after each visit. I absolutely recommend Ruth and hope to have her watch Leo in the future!
