I'm Elizabeth
Cat Sitting in Portland, OR
I currently don’t have hands on experience admini... Hello to all fellow feline guardians! My name is Elizabeth and I would absolutely love to take care of your precious cat companions. I have always loved all animals, especially cats. I have four cats (Patchy, Cece, Mojito, and Reuben) and they are my whole world! I just completed my certification in advanced feline behavior/training, and I’m passionate about all things cat - whether that be nutrition, behavior, health, enrichment, you name it!
I currently don’t have hands on experience administering diabetes meds or injections, but I am very open to working with cats that have this need after learning from the guardian.
I am available during the week with morning or evening visits, and any time on weekends. When booked, I'd be happy to help with watering plants, retrieving mail, and light cleaning.
*I am fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and have received my boosters*
*If you are looking for a specific date and it’s not marked as available on my calendar, please message me!*

Elizabeth was amazing. My cats loved her the moment they met her. She was last minute able to give my cat his medication through a different route and sent me updates everyday. I know my cats missed her when her visits were finished. I already rebooked with her for another visit!

This was our second time working with Elizabeth and she will be our first choice whenever she is available. She was so creative meeting the needs of our 3 very different kiddos, including enticing our shy boy out of hiding with a trail of freeze dried chicken and giving each of our juniors special attention and cuddles according to their interests. Her pictures are amazing, with action shots and portraits and comedy moments capturing each cat’s personality, and she even caught the cutest blep! I really think she could have a successful side gig as a pet photographer. She left everything clean and in perfect order. We have had other cat sitters in the past but Elizabeth is in a class by herself, and we feel so lucky to have found her.

I feel so lucky to have become one of Elizabeth's clients before her roster filled up - if you see that she's taking new clients again, I recommend grabbing the opportunity! Once again she has made our time away so much better with her amazing pictures and notes painting a vivid and reassuring picture of what our little buddies are up to when we're gone. She gives them playtime and cuddles galore and even reports on the health of their poops. Our cats love her and we do too - she's a natural cat whisperer and just an all around excellent person to know in this world. Thanks Elizabeth!

Elizabeth has been our cat sitter a few times now and we trust and appreciate her so much. Did you ever meet someone in the course of doing their job who just radiates talent and brings a little extra to everything they do? That's Elizabeth. She's conscientious, hard-working and kind. She sends us fun updates and the most amazing cat pictures. Our cats usually hate company but here they are cuddling, playing, and rolling around showing off, and when we get home they aren't even mad at us. Our travel stress is way down knowing they are happy and that if anything happens there is a caring and capable person there to help. I'd recommend her to anyone!

Elizabeth’s care for our two senior cats was nothing short of exceptional. You can tell she truly enjoys cats and our two definitely enjoyed her. She was communicative and caring, asking questions about health, medication, likes and dislikes before we left them in her care. During our vacation she sent us frequent updates and pictures of them playing and cuddling and took excellent care of their litter boxes, toys and clean up. Definitely someone you can trust with your beloved feline companions- can’t recommend her enough!

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!

From the initial meet and greet to the final check-In, Elizabeth showed up Churu in hand ready to win Edamame over. Elizabeth was always punctual, respectful, communicative, and prepared. Although our fur baby is incredibly shy and a bit skiddish Elizabeth exercized patience and the utmost care, always allowing Edamame the space she needs to warm up to someone new at her own pace. During each visit Elizabeth would immediately sent photos, videos, and gave detailed updates. Elizabeth didn’t skip a beat with the instructions we left to ensure Edamame’s comfort while we were away. Without a doubt, we will be booking Elizabeth to look after our sassy little princess for all future excurions.

Elizabeth was an exceptional sitter for our cat, Theon. He is usually a bit shy at first and can be nervous in new situations, but he took to Elizabeth immediately. Her updates were detailed and always included sweet videos and photos to help put us at ease. We would absolutely book Elizabeth again!
Sophie

Elizabeth was fantastic and our girl (Margo 🐈⬛) adored her! The photo updates were perfect. We also needed to add an additional visit last-minute, which Elizabeth was awesome about accommodating. Will definitely be booking again!

Elizabeth was wonderful! accepted all my kitties weird and funny traits and made sure they had fun! Cleaned the box/ on time for feeding and respectful of our home. She played with the cats while there and made sure they felt loved for the whole week+ we were away. we received many photos and updates each day! the only “downside” was they seemed to have so much fun playing we missed our cats even more!! :D

This was my second time booking with Elizabeth and definitely won't be my last. I have an elderly cat, who is very grouchy around strangers when I'm not around, and somehow Elizabeth was able to get Stella to approach her. Elizabeth always provided timely updates during her visits, including plenty of photos and video so I could see how Stella was doing while I was away.

So happy to have had Elizabeth care for our four kitties while we were out of town! One of our cats had an unexpected anxious reaction to us being out of town and Elizabeth handled it beautifully, giving him both the space and care he needed to feel comfortable.

Knowing Elizabeth was taking care of my pets, 2 cats and a rabbit, gave me such peace of mind while I was gone. My 2 cats came to her during our meet and greet and acted like they had known her forever. She followed all instructions and was very responsible and reliable. She sent lots of pictures and videos which were very much appreciated. I will definitely use her for all of my pet sitting needs.

Best cat sitter ever! Our time away was so much more relaxing knowing our cats were in such good hands, and the updates and photos were wonderful. Elizabeth is conscientious and professional with a peaceful good vibe that our cats clearly enjoyed, and we’ll definitely be seeking her out for future trips. We couldn’t have hoped for better. Thanks Elizabeth!
