I'm Toni

Cat Sitting in Portland, OR

I love being a fur Momma! I have two kitties right now who were rescues as kittens and now 12. I’m comfortable with various types of energy levels, needs, play time and snugglefests. I know how to adjust my energy to befriend intensely shy angels to attention hounds and know how to balance the two so that everyone gets loving attention. I’ve done meds, vet visits, eye drops, wound treatment, separate fee... I love being a fur Momma! I have two kitties right now who were rescues as kittens and now 12. I’m comfortable with various types of energy levels, needs, play time and snugglefests. I know how to adjust my energy to befriend intensely shy angels to attention hounds and know how to balance the two so that everyone gets loving attention. I’ve done meds, vet visits, eye drops, wound treatment, separate feedings, temperature readings to poo samples if necessary. And also know that it’s mostly about giving loving attention that best responds to their daily needs. I am a quiet, friendly, sensitive human who loves all living things and tends to leave a place better than I found it. Looking forward to serving your pets needs and giving you peace of mind while away! Your kitties and home will be in good hands.

Learn More About Toni

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My babies are Amura, who is the most timid, adoring and gentle angel I’ve ever met and Lovebug, a total attention hound who gives endlessly and greets all my guests. They couldn’t be more different but they’re purrrrfect the way they are!

What is your favorite cat toy?

Feather wand and brush are favorites for a mix between healthy human interface and play time plus bonding and grooming with the brush for a clean, soft coat and body checks.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

My girl Amura came from a rescue this way as a kitten and I simply slowed down my energy to match hers, walk gently around her and get low to the ground. She always comes with a gentle invitation. I also encourage friends and guests how to love her best with no sudden moments and patience which lets her safely choose to stay open and curious instead of scared. A sweet voice and nothing loud goes a long way too!

Toni is the best! My baby is a bit shy and she took such gentle care of him. I got lots of pictures and detailed updates so I felt connected and not worried while I was away. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a kind and beautiful soul to watch over your little angels.

Toni did a fantastic job with my two cats. They can be a little shy and skittish, but she had them in the palm of her hand! She dealt with a few hiccups with aplomb, was very communicative and sent great pics. I highly recommend her!

My cats warmed up to Toni quickly. She had great communication and sent lots of beautiful photos of my cats. Communication was great and she completed all tasks as discussed. I will definitely hire Toni again next time I am in need of a sitter.

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 $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 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!
