I'm Angela
Cat Sitting in Gresham, OR
I started volunteering at the Cattery at the Multnomah Animal Shelter in March but have always cared for cats my entire life. Blackjack was my first cat, and he always signed my birthday cards with a cute paw print. 🐾I can also sit for ferrets and bunnies and take care of litter, food, meds, and playtime for them as well.
I appreciate a cat's independence, love the way they communicate, and respect their boundaries. I have received professional training to care for animals in the shelter, but it is training that is applicable outside of that environment and includes understanding cats' body language, meows, and behavior.
I have administered medicine in foods and topically... Hi! 🌞 My name is Angela (she/her), and I have a gorgeous 14 year old Tonkinese named Sasha. I'm lucky to have adult kiddos that can help me with her if I have to travel, but not everyone has that built in support! I want to be that for you and give you freedom from fear and anxiety when you have to temporarily leave your fur baby behind.

I have administered medicine in foods and topically. I can provide comprehensive cat care including feeding, litter box cleaning, and playtime!
I take great notes and have thorough record keeping. I am communicative and respectful of your home, your cat and your time. I ask for detailed, written instructions to ensure I meet all expectations. I also appreciate a history of any behavioral, medical or bathroom issues your cat may have. A digitally, accessible form can be prepared for you to complete upon hire.
I work for a nonprofit that allows me to work from anywhere and set my own hours, so I am very flexible and can accommodate most requests. Please be as specific as possible when scheduling because "anytime" for me could be between 7AM and 10PM.
I am used to working with people from diverse backgrounds and cultures and am a mom to a gay child. Every person deserves love and respect, as does every animal. Communication is key to every relationship, and I come to the table with an open mind and curiosity, not assumptions.
I am available for overnight care and require disclosure for any video or audio recording devices so that we can discuss appropriate use while I am in your private residence.
I am in the Gresham/Troutdale area, but I am used to traveling in and around the Portland metro area including Tigard, Tualatin and Beaverton so please just ask if you're outside my service zone. 🚘
Feel free to message me with any questions! My calendar is up to date, so feel free to book any dates needed. I'll let you know quickly if I'm not able to accommodate you for some reason.
I look forward to meeting you and your fur family soon!
Learn More About Angela
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
Cats are the most interesting domesticated animal, and I love all the varying personalities and preferences they have. Being able to provide caring support to your cats in your absence is a privilege, and I hope that my services give you the opportunity to take care of the things you need to so that when you return, you have a happy, stable cat to greet you with excited meows and sweet purrs.
Are you usually available during holidays?
My availability is very flexible and that includes holidays! Last minute bookings can work too if you find yourself in a pinch!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Patience, respect and empathy are the recipe for success for timid and anxious kitties. Knowing techniques that work such as food motivation and creating a calm environment go a long way too! Having gained the trust of strays in order to get them into shelter care, I believe I have a knack for understanding how to behave in a way that makes hesitant cats feel okay with me.

I highly recommend working with Angela! She is kind and has great attention to detail. She managed using our security system with ease and sent cute pics of our two cats and was always complimentary of them :) She genuinely seemed to enjoy taking care of them! She was really flexible too and was able to add an extra day last minute when our travel plans changed. Will definitely be working with her again!

This was my second time booking Angela and it won't be the last! I have two senior kitties and one requires a lot of special care and is very spicy. Angela has been able to care for my girls seamlessly even with that challenge. Communication is top notch, she's great with the girls, and just great all around! Looking forward to using her again.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.
If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.
Gresham cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $31.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.
Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet!

Angela was very responsible and respectful to our special little girl. It is so wonderful to be able to go out of town and disconnect and know that your family member is in capable, compassionate, helpful hands. I loved all the cute pictures, videos and daily updates. It’s reassurance that we picked the peeerfect cat sitter and look forward to her next visit. Our girl gave her 10 paws up 😻
