Learn More About Jude
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I started out watching my own pets as a kid while my family was away, but it quickly evolved to watching my family friends and neighbors cats/pets when they needed someone to. I have been doing this for the last 5-6 years. I have experience with all kinds of cats, cats with disabilities, cats with different behaviors and personalities, cats with varying levels of needs, senior cats, etc. I am always happy to obtain new information if I don’t know something.
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes! I have a very flexible schedule. My schedule is typically able to suit the needs of the clients and the cats.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
My number one priority for me is letting things happen at the cats pace. I value your cats safety and wellbeing—both physical AND emotional—over anything else, and I want them to stay as comfortable as they can while you are away. I hope that we can make a plan before I watch your kitty to figure out the best course of action for what will work best for your kitty in particular

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 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 Meet & Greet!
