Mari's Cat Care

I'm Mari

Cat Sitting in Everett, WA

Hi! I’m Mari, an animal lover and devoted cat enthusiast. I’ve had cats all my life and wouldn’t have it any other way! I thrive on discovering the unique personalities of new kitties and getting to know their quirks. I’ve even been told that cats gravitate to me and that they reveal their cuddly and friendly side in my presence. I have fun capturing quality photos of your precious kitties in their element - playing, swatting, frolicking, lounging, or just being their plain ol’ adorable selves!

I’m CPR and first aid certified for cats and dogs. When I began pet sitting on Meowtel, I completed a continuing education course, at WCC in Bellingham, called PetSaver. Now I feel much more confident caring for your cats and knowing when (and how) I can help them with an emergency and when they need to go to the vet...

I’m CPR and first aid certified for cats and dogs. When I began pet sitting on Meowtel, I completed a continuing education course, at WCC in Bellingham, called PetSaver. Now I feel much more confident caring for your cats and knowing when (and how) I can help them with an emergency and when they need to go to the vet. I’d recommend this course to all pet owners - you will learn so much!

I have been a volunteer at Seattle Humane, caring for cats that were waiting on their forever home. Many of these kitties had extreme personalities - some very shy or fearful of humans - and I loved the bonding experience that was cultivated through repeat visits as trust was built.

On my visits, I will provide your kitties with nourishment, treats (if allowed), water refreshment, and tend to their litter boxes. I will provide cuddles, brushies or playtime if they desire. I can give them any topical or oral medication. I do ask that kitties who require medication or have other special needs get a minimum of 45 minutes to ensure sufficient time for care. I will send you text updates all about your fur babes, as well as photos or videos, each time I come over.

I’m happy to bring in your mail and packages, water your plants, take out the trash, rotate lights and adjust blinds (so it appears someone is home) to provide an added level of security for your home.

During our meet and greet, please don’t hesitate to provide detailed information about your cats and their personalities and habits. This helps me provide the best care possible and I want you to have peace of mind while you’re away!

TLDR; I can’t wait to get to know your kitties!

Learn More About Mari

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to know the quirks of each unique cat and discovering what makes them purr! Capturing creative photos of your kitties is very rewarding. It’s so fun to try to capture their personality in a single frame.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes, and we've shared life together for more than 10 years! Kuya is my orange and white tuxedo tabby boy, and I have a gray, black and orange tortoiseshell girl, Boomer (she’s been going by Boomsie these days). I adopted them in 2013, when they were only 8 weeks, from the Humane Society in Bellingham, WA.

Mari is absolutely fantastic and the best catsitter I’ve ever had! She made us feel so at ease while we were away knowing that our cat, Bo was in excellent hands and getting lots of playtime, attention, and affection! She sent tons of photos and videos with updates during each visit and brought in our packages and mail for us. She went out of her way to help us check on a part of our house that had minor damage from a storm while we were away and sent photos so we could see. Her communication is excellent and she responds really quickly with great detail! She even printed a photo of Bo and left a nice card and note on her last visit. We look forward to working with Mari again for future needs! Highly recommend!!

Mari took such good care of my cat with a ton of useful updates, fantastic photos, and even a lovely note for me when I got back from my trip! It was my cats birthday and it made me happy to return to printed photos of her and the knowledge that she was in wonderful hands.

Mari was friendly, thorough and good with my kitty. She checked to make sure the key worked in the door at the meet and greet, that my vet release form was filled out, and that she had an emergency contact number in addition to my number. She texted me lots of photos/videos and written updates. She spent time brushing my kitty. She left my home tidy. And she also checked in to make sure I got home okay. My kitty was in good hands!

Mari consistently does a fabulous job taking care of my three furbabies (one which has a med.) I feel relief knowing she is coming to check in on them while I’m away. She will always send updates, pictures and videos. She also helped me not miss a trash pick up, which was kind and not something she had to do (I also worried it would be obvious we weren’t home if the bin wasn’t out.) All this to say, I highly recommend Mari. She’s wonderful!

I booked Mari for a weekend cat sitting gig, and it was my first time working with her. From our initial conversation, she was very responsive, answering all my questions and asking the right ones in return. During the meet and greet, she took her time to understand my cats' personalities…she didn’t rush and made sure to get all the details, even though it was just a short booking. While I was away, Mari sent regular updates with photos and videos, which reassured me that my three cats were in great hands. Two of them are usually very shy, but they warmed up to her quickly. When I returned, my apartment was just as I left it…clean, fresh, and well-maintained. The litter box area was spotless, and my cats seemed happy and relaxed, not stressed or anxious. Mari is friendly, punctual, attentive, and clearly loves caring for cats. I’ll definitely book her again!

I have nothing but positive things to say about Mari! She was an amazing cat sitter for my cat, Foo! She was thorough during each visit, ensuring Foo was well-fed, had a clean space, and even took time to play and cuddle with her. Mari was also incredibly thoughtful, sending photos, videos, and updates with each visit that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared, and I will certainly be calling Mari for the next time I’m out of town. Highly recommend!

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.

Everett cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $34.00. 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!
