I'm Erin | Cat Sitting in Portland, OR

Hi! I'm Erin (they/them). I have loved cats since the day I was born. I grew up with them and have always felt a deep connection with them (sometimes more than people). I live with two little princesses named Punchy and Ripley. I work to give them good lives! My cat sitting career began when I was 11, when my mom's coworker asked me to give his kitties extra love while he was away. Since then I have been asked to cat sit by teachers, co-workers, and even bosses because am I known for both loving cats and being responsible and reliable. I know how hard it can be to leave your fur baby with a stranger, so I will make sure to keep you updated at every visit! I have cared for elderly and disabled kitties that have ...

I love getting to know every kitty's unique personality!

Erin does a great job. Our kitties are shy but she helps them relax enough to get curious and venture out while she’s here. This is the second time she cat-sit for us and we will definitely hire her again.

Erin is my go-to for feeling comfortable when I am away. She is great with communication, following directions, and being great with my cat-babies.

Erin did such incredible job taking care of our shy boy Neko. They took a bunch of really great pictures and updated us every day how things were going. It was very relieving to know Neko was in good hands. He even came out and took treats from Erin which he would never do for anyone else when we aren't home!

Erin was a great playmate to Gordon, and gave very quick and detailed responses. I was very reassured that Gordon was in safe and fun hands. Thank you Erin!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

If you are not fully satisfied with your sitter after the Meet & Greet or during the reservation, please call 1-844-636-9835 so we can help you re-book with a new sitter to ensure we can deliver on our purrfect hospitality promise.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $33.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

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.
