I'm Rachel | Cat Sitting in Alexandria, VA

UPDATE: Thank you so much to all of my clients! I will be moving to a different part of Virginia, but look forward to being back for the major holidays. My calendar is closed for the next few weeks until I figure out the precise dates I’ll be available. I hope our paths cross again! ~~ I have been a cat lover for my entire life! I love how intuitive they are, and how each one has its own special personality. Meeting new cats has always been a pleasure for me, and whenever I visit friends, they always make sure to introduce me to the true head of the house! My current cat, Cookie, is such a sweetheart. She adores head-butts and scritches from her people, and will ask for sofa time with me the minute I get home. I a...

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have one little cat named Cookie! She is 12 years old and such a sweetheart.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Safety is my #1 priority. I make sure that all doors are locked when I come and when I go, and that nothing had been disturbed since my last visit.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I am a big fan of the classic "fish on a string" toy!

Rachel provided such excellent care for our kitty and her updates put as at ease while we were away. She sent the cutest pictures, gave Desi lots of love, and confirmed details along the way. So grateful for Rachel and will definitely book again/recommend her!

I really appreciated Rachel's help while I was in the hospital for surgery. She looked in on my kitty Wilma to give her food, scoop litter boxes and collect mail. It was a relief knowing Wilma was being looked after well.

Rachel did a fantastic job, playing with the kitties and giving them some attention and companionship. She did everything i asked and was happy to do it. I felt very much at ease having the cats under her watch. Would highly recommend.

Rachel loves cats and you can tell by her updates how she observes their behavior and moods. She was a great playmate for my wild little kitten.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Alexandria cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. 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.
