I'm Susie

Cat Sitting in Portland, OR

I absolutely adore cats, they are my pride and joy. My admiration for them came when I got my first tabby kitty of my own Sandy. I have learned a lot, as he has a fantastic set of quirks of his own! When I am not playing with him, I work a full time job as a Social Worker helping the at-risk youth population at a local non-profit. I have my background in Psychology and also own a small life coaching business... I absolutely adore cats, they are my pride and joy. My admiration for them came when I got my first tabby kitty of my own Sandy. I have learned a lot, as he has a fantastic set of quirks of his own! When I am not playing with him, I work a full time job as a Social Worker helping the at-risk youth population at a local non-profit. I have my background in Psychology and also own a small life coaching business. Cats are so major in my life, that this is less of a job to me and more of a purpose to give back to the animals that make life shine brighter. I would love to help out anyone who is needing someone to stop in, administer medication (apply ointment, oral medication), feed, play, etc.
I am fully vaccinated and understand how important safety is with the current COVID-19 virus. I will make sure to wear a mask and keep the environment clean and sanitized while I am in your home. I live in Portland, OR and work a full time job. So i am able to come over during the noon hour and anytime after 5pm!

Susie is above and beyond amazing. While out of the country my cat, Sloan, had to go to an emergency vet clinic which Susie generously offered to handle. We coordinated on the phone, she dropped off and picked up Sloan, she talked to the vet and nurses, got her medications, and administered them. Plus more. She also left notes for the evening cat sitter I needed to hire to give Sloan her nighttime medications. I felt soooo lucky and relieved that she was there and taking care of business. She is truly the best and was very sweet and incredibly flexible throughout the whole ordeal.

Susie did a great job of bonding with my 2 cats, taking time to engage them with their favorite daily activities of brushing and chasing their string toy. Very pleasant and friendly, Susie kept me informed every day on how the cats were doing, and shared pics and videos of them. Highly recommended!!

Susie was so amazing with our three kitties while we took a 3 day trip. It has been years since my husband and I were able to take a trip together, and Susie made us feel totally at ease that our cats were in good hands. A couple of our cats have some serious seperation anxiety, but did very well with Susie and seemed happy and playful when we got back! Susie updated us often with adorable pics of our babies. I would not hesitate at all to recommend Susie for all of your cat sitting needs. We are so thankful for her!

Susie was an excellent cat-sitter. My kitties feeding needs are complicated but Susie executed their routine like a champ. She's incredibly responsive and sent many photos and videos at every visit, reassuring me my kitties got the love they needed. She impressively bonded with my most ornery cat, who gets anxious when I'm gone and regurgitates frequently. Susie cleaned up all those messes without complaint.

The reservation process through the app is seamless. Susie responds fast and efficiently. She is absolutely fabulous with our kitty, Porter. he can take time to warm up but he was smitten right away. Updates were perfect, detailed and full of great photo and video clips. Now Porter misses seeing his Meowtel Bestie. We felt at ease leaving him with her even with Porter’s cancer/health issues. Fabulous!

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.

Portland cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. 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!
