My cats are in good hands when I leave them with Julie. My shy kitty actually came out to greet her this past visit! He is scared of new ppl, so it was nice to see him warm up. I highly recommend her!

Julie was the first pet sitter I've ever used for my two year old cats I've had since they were kittens. She treats her profession very seriously and took diligent notes during the meet and greet and was extremely conscious of the cats behavior and made sure they were comfortable. The cats warmed up to her almost immediately and importantly she successfully administered a daily inhaler to a somewhat timid asthmatic cat which is a huge win! 100% would recommend reaching out to Julie especially if you have cats with particular needs.

Julie did an exceptional job of watching our elderly cat while we were away on vacation for a couple of weeks. Her meticulous attention to detail and constant updates made us feel completely comfortable and secure knowing that our cat was in her capable hands. Despite the fact that our cat required daily medication, Julie was incredibly accommodating and went above and beyond to ensure her well-being. She diligently maintained her litter box, kept our cat entertained, and made sure she never felt lonely. She is the purr-fect 🐈 cat sitter and we highly recommend her to anyone needing her services. We are happy customers and plan to utilize her again in the future. 😃

She made us feel secure that our cats (and house) were well taken care of while we were away. I would love to work with her again.

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.
Fairfax Station cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $28.00. 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!

We are so lucky to have Julie as our cat sitter. She has been our go to cat sitter for our cats for the past 3 years and every time we leave, we know our home and pet are in the best hands. This week she not only loved and cared for our cats but also brought in our mail, took out the trash, and rolled the recycling bin in. These thoughtful touches mean so much. We are so grateful for her kindness, reliability, and the peace of mind she gives us. Highly recommended!

Julie always takes the best care of my fur-babies. My one cat doesn't like anyone, but Julie is one of her favorite people! The other cat is a jerk, but she never minds his sassy attitude. I never even worry about them when I'm out of town because I know they are just as spoiled without me.
Tracy

Julie took great care of my crew. She gave me a report out on each one daily while I was gone and sent me pictures of my social girl Penny sitting on her lap at nearly every visit. She also made sure my less social ones were accounted for and given love and attention. She was kind enough to unpack and deal with a big chewy order that came after my trip started and tidied all the scattered litter around my cat pans which I really appreciated. The cats were healthy and happy when I returned and everything was in order and as I expected. I am so thankful to have found Julie and be able to travel without worry, knowing the cats are in great hands.

Julie was very professional and after our initial meeting I had no reservations about leaving my pets in her capable hands. She was extremely communicative and we enjoyed getting pictures of our cats while we were gone. Julie even helped us with our fish and turtle and spotted and addressed an issue with a light we use for our turtle that could have resulted in a fire. I will definitely rely on Julie again to care for our pets in the future and highly reccomend her to anyone looking for petcare.
Jessica

Julie was perfect! This was my first time using Meowtel (or anyone other than a neighbor) to check on my cats. Both of my cats are quite shy with new people, and one requires medicine applied to her ear. Julie was patient, kind and responsive. She kept me updated with daily photos and notes which I really appreciated. Highly recommended!
Katie

Another fabulous visit with Julie! This time, my senior kitty had a special diet and was going through some home readjustments that had me nervous, but Julie was the sweetest companion and made it a point to tell me how things were going, specifically things that she sensed made me nervous. Love every time we have her!

This was our first time with Meowtel and with Julie. Before the pandemic we used another sitter who was wonderful but unfortunately, she was no longer available. So, we had high expectations. We were extremely pleased and felt very comfortable that our cats had all the care they needed while we were gone. Our shyest cat even came out to meet Julie on her first visit; normally this cat hides the whole time visitors are here. We will definitely book again.

I was impressed with Meowtel and also (and especially I must say) with Julie. Julie wonderfully took care of our two cats for 30 days through daily visits. She is dependable, professional, courteous, resourceful, trustworthy, knowledgeable and so much more. Most importantly, we really felt she loved our cats. She played with, groomed, and cuddled them, they were really happy. I strongly recommend Julie to anyone looking for a fantastic cat sitter. I will definitely choose her again next time we’re out of town. Thank you so much, Julie!

Julie was a wonderful cat sitter. I was very nervous about leaving my kitties for so long, but everything was absolutely perfect when we returned. She kept me updated with each visit. She went above and beyond and even took care of my 6 parakeets. Thank you Julie for taking care of all my babies while we were gone.

Julie loved my boys like her own, and had excellent communication during the entire process. Two weeks was the longest I've ever left them at home and I was anxious about it, but having her there made me feel like I could really enjoy our trip. She's the best, we'll be using her again!

We felt very comfortable with leaving our kitty in Julie’s care. He liked Julie right away at the Meet & Greet - walked up to sniff her and to say Hi! Julie came across experienced and dependable. She sent pictures & updates every day. We came back to a relaxed, happy kitty and a tidy home!
Linda

Julie is a stellar cat sitter. her compassion, kindness, and caring show up in everything she does for our elderly cat. She’s great at giving us updates and photos of how our cat is doing as we are away. Highly recommend her for your cat sitting needs, she’s the best!
Tracy

Julie is my go-to for cat care. She has built relationships with them and sincerely cares about them. In addition to their feeding and litter box care, she spends time interacting and playing with them. Last time I traveled, she brought some toys for them to enjoy while I was gone so they had something new and interesting to amuse them. I can travel without worry because I have complete confidence in Julie’s care of them.
Luke

I’m incredibly thankful for Julie’s dilligence and willingness to go above and beyond for my cats. Julie has a very high level of competence in caring for my diabetic cat (administering insulin, taking BG readings, reporting changes to me quickly) and I’d be lost without her!
Adeela
