I'm Madeline | Cat Sitting in Portland, OR
*About Me (and My Cats)* Hi there! My name’s Madeline and I joined Meowtel to broaden my network and meet more cats. I currently live in Portland with my husband and two sweet kitties, Grandpaw (age 10) and Pepito (age 1). I would absolutely love the opportunity to take care of your companion animals, too! >^. .^< Cats have always been an important part of my life: • I grew up with cats and bonded with one during preschool who stayed by my side until college • I’ve volunteered at humane societies and have experience with a wide spectrum of cat personalities • I’ve cat-sit for many felines over the years and am known as a cat enthusiast by friends and family *My Approach* Whenever I meet a new cat, I always move slowly and respect their independence. Each cat has a different backstory and unique needs. Some cats demand head scratches immediately while others hide under the bed.

Madeline's Reviews
Colin
Madeline was great from the jump and somehow managed to become friends with my prickly lil man.
Norma
Madeline is a super star and managed my small herd like the magical cat herder she is. Even got my shy kitty out of her shell and my mean kitty tamed enough for great pictures and peaceful coexistence. Cant recommend enough and will be using her again!
Lauren
Madeline is a very caring, responsible, and professional sitter. I was nervous about leaving my senior cat in the care of somebody new, but Madeline took great care of her and kept me posted regularly. I will definitely ask Madeline to care for my cat again!

Frequently Asked Questions
The average price for a cat sitter is $30.00.
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.
