*~*~*About Me (and My Cats) *~*~* Hi there! I'm a part-time cat sitter living in SW Portland with my husband and two sweet kitties, Grandpaw (age 11) and Pepito (age 2). 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 with me 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 *~*~*Service Areas and Booking Information*~*~* My primary service area recently changed to SW Portland / Maplewood.

Madeline's Reviews
Joya
This was the first time I had a cat sitter, so I was a little nervous about how my playful, active cat would handle being alone. Madeline was fantastic!! Great photos, outstanding communication, amazing play sessions. I expected my cat to be clingy when I got home, but he wasn't. I swear, Madeline entertained him more in her twice daily play sessions than I do all day! Really, the whole experience exceeded expectations. I'm sure I will be using Madeline's services again in the future.

Madeline did an awesome job at taking care of my fur babies! She sent me great photos each day and made sure that my cats were having fun and enriching play time.
Mary
Madeline sent daily, detailed updates and excellent photos/videos that really showed our cat Hollis’s playful and engaging personality. She took special care in feeding him and in taking time to play with and engage him. We appreciate the attention she gave him and highly recommend her. Mary B

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
