I'm Helen | Cat Sitting in Issaquah, WA

I have always loved animals! In my early years growing up, I rode and trained quarter horses. Of course, dogs and cats were a part of the ranch scene. All my life I have kept cats in my surroundings. Currently, I own a cat, Izzy who was a stray five years ago. I am a retired school teacher but recently returned to substituting in my local city of Issaquah, Washington. I taught special needs children for 35 years. I have always wanted to be a veterinarian but growing up in the early sixties made this career very limited to girls entering college. So recently, in late January 2022, I was hired at a cat hospital to work with the "boarders". I was as...

Helen is the best, and we have had many cat sitters over 11 years (due to several moves and many vacations). she gets to know your cat and pays attention to details and their “language”. We will be asking her back!

It was first time using Meowtel. I needed a cat sitter who would give my cat his asthma meds, in addition to regular cat care. Helen hit a home run. She is experienced in giving cat asthma meds and took wonderful care of my two cats. I would definitely ask her to care for my cats again.

Helen was amazing as always. We were away for a few weeks, and she took incredible care of our cat, Mango. Helen not only made sure Mango was happy and healthy but also went the extra mile by looking out for our packages. She even brought an adorable mouse toy for Mango, and now it's her absolute favorite! 😊 Helen was super quick to respond, and after each visit, she left us detailed updates. I can't recommend her enough – she's a gem!

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.

If you are not fully satisfied with your sitter after the Meet & Greet or during the reservation, please call 1-844-636-9835 so we can help you re-book with a new sitter to ensure we can deliver on our purrfect hospitality promise.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $29.00. 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.
