Tess's Reviews
Celine
Tess is amazing with our socially anxious kitty, I’ll definitely ask her to cat sit again :) she gives detailed updates and went above and beyond to tidy our place up and pick up packages!! thank you!!!
Rob
Tess did a fantastic job watching our cat for a week while my fiancée and I were away! She sent detailed notes and lots of great pictures and videos each day. She even went the extra mile to clean up around the litter box and take out our trash. Would highly recommend Tess for anyone looking for cat sitting!
Giovi
Tess provided a level of comfort and care for my cats I didn’t know was possible. Tess was communicative, kind and went above and beyond for my two elderly cats who have a lot of needs. I recommend Tess with my whole heart if you are looking for an angel to look after your babies. Look no further.
Daniel
Tess was awesome and took such great care of our Nala! Will definetly be asking her to come back.
Natalie
Tess was a wonderful caretaker for my cat! She provided super detailed updates and showed a level of concern for my cat that you don’t often seen in short-term cat sitters. She was professional and she eased my worries about being gone for a whole week.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
