Use this code at checkout: XTYCRIQS I'm Kat, a Certified Feline Training & Behavior Specialist (CFTBS) who loves spending time with cats so much that I decided to do it for a living! I currently have four of my own, and I volunteer as a foster parent for a local cat rescue. I know how stressful it can be to trust a stranger with your cats, and I love having the opportunity to help my clients have peace of mind so they can enjoy their trips without worrying about how things are going at home. I always provide multiple pictures and videos as well as a detailed account of how each visit goes, so you can feel comfortable knowing your kitties are in good hands. I’ve had multiple cats with medical issues, so I am experienced giving medication to non-aggressive cats orally, topically, and via injection if the cat is used to them. 30 minute visits are recommended for sits including medication administration (alternate 20 & 45 min visits when booking via Meowtel & it evens out to 30). I’ve always gravitated toward cats, and I love how you have to earn their trust and respect. Behaviorally, my approach is research-based, using shaping and positive reinforcement to he...
Kat's Reviews
Jessica
Kat is absolutely amazing! I had just gotten my cat Bo and he was shy and unsure about his new world, but Kat stepped in right away and introduced him to new toys and gave him space to be himself. I appreciate all of her lovely photos and videos and quick updates as soon as she arrives!
Vered
All of the Meowtel sitter I had were great but Kat was a whole other level! We got detailed updates, many photos and videos, and she gave each of our kitties the special attention they needed, and they warmed up to her immedietely. She is a true cat whisperer and clearly cares very much about the cats she is watching. Can’t wait to book her again in the future!

I was really apprehensive about going on a week long trip due to my kitty being a shy senior. My vet recommended looking into Meowtel, so after reading all of the reviews for sitters in my area I set up a reservation with Kat. From the very start of the meet and greet, I had a good feeling. Kat showed up on time and actually found my place, which sounds strange, but I live in an apartment complex where everything looks similar and that has been an issue for other things. My cat Willa is elderly, shy, and very particular about people. Kat was patient and moved at Willa's pace. By the end of the meet and greet, Willa actually let Kat pet her! During my trip, Kat sent me several pictures and videos each day, along with a description of how Willa was faring. This was especially important to me, since Willa was diagnosed with kidney disease immediately prior to my trip, and was/is still transitioning to a new diet. It was very clear from the videos that Willa enjoyed her interactions with Kat, which made it easier to relax on my trip. While it wasn't easy to be gone that long, I returned home last night to a happy, healthy, well cared for kitty. I will definitely be booking Kat next time I need a sitter.

The reservation went well, because I had three kittens we had to work together to get the perfect service in place. Kat and the Meowtel representative did an amazing job of putting in place exactly what my kittens needed. And Kat is a wonderful cat person, the family was able to warm up to her in record time, she is very detailed and covered all the bases +. Kat was able to discern my anxiety from being away from my kittens and she ramped up the pictures, which was wonderful. Ha Ha and here i thot i only needed a “they’re fine” while i was away, Kat was able to see thru that very quickly.
Kayla
Kat is just amazing! She treated our senior kitties with such care and even gave medication to one of our older kitties with no trouble. She was an excellent communicator, taking pictures and responding very quickly. She even left a little kitty toy that one of my girls really loved. She was very nice and easy to work with. I can't recommend her enough. We will definitely be requesting her next time we're out of town.

Frequently Asked Questions
The average price for a cat sitter is $27.00.
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.
