I'm Mac

Cat Sitting in Renton, WA

Meowdy! My name is Mac, and I'm so excited to care for your cats.

I moved to Renton in 2022 with my partner and two cats, Gio and Billie. Gio is an incredibly intelligent and very active cat, and Billie takes the prize as the sweetest couch potato. Both are my world, as have been the many cats I've cared for throughout my life.

I am very much a cat person and have experience with both social and reserved kitties. I can match the play energy of some wild zoomies, but I can also demonstrate the patience and quiet, slow movements a shyer cat might need to feel comfortable...
Meowdy! My name is Mac, and I'm so excited to care for your cats.

I moved to Renton in 2022 with my partner and two cats, Gio and Billie. Gio is an incredibly intelligent and very active cat, and Billie takes the prize as the sweetest couch potato. Both are my world, as have been the many cats I've cared for throughout my life.

I am very much a cat person and have experience with both social and reserved kitties. I can match the play energy of some wild zoomies, but I can also demonstrate the patience and quiet, slow movements a shyer cat might need to feel comfortable. I can give topical and oral medications as well.

Professionally, I work as an Employment Consultant. I'm also in the Seattle Men's Chorus, and I love all things music. Of course, I fit lots of time for playing with my cats into my schedule. Gio in particular loves walks outside in his stroller to the park, where he enjoys leaving the stroller to roam around in his harness.

I am available in the mornings and evenings, though I have full availability on weekends. I stay home for most holidays except Christmas. I have reliable transportation and can travel anywhere from Bellevue to Burien, but I don't have a strict service area.

Please let me know if you have any questions! I can't wait to meet you and your cats :)

Learn More About Mac

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I do have cats! Their names are Gio (male, age 7) and Billie (female, age 6). I've had them both since they were kittens.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

I always find that the best communicators give me the most peace of mind. Try to pick someone who's lauded for their messaging habits.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Typically, yes! The one exception is Christmas, though Christmas 2026 is up in the air. You'll find that I'm available over most other major holidays.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I love wands, especially with feathers. I can usually get a cat jumping around with a wand.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I give them plenty of space, first and foremost. I keep quiet and let them make the first move. If they approach, I let them sniff me, but if not, I will continue to be a calm presence. I'm in THEIR space, after all!

Mac was fantastic, I specially appreciate his very thorough updates. He does a fantastic job all over. On one visit my cat was hiding and he couldn't find her. Mac asked for hiding spots and came back for a shorter visit to make sure she was fine.

Mac watched our two cats over a weekend away and we could not have been happier with the communication and care shown throughout the visit. We have two very shy cats and Mac was so patient and kind to them, giving them time to adjust to a new person and coaxing them gently from hiding spots. We received lots of photos and detailed updates during our time away and returned to two calm and happy cats. We will definitely be booking Mac again in the future.

We have utilized Mac's expertise now for many visits and he is consistent, detail-oriented, and has a true love of cats that translates into his work. In our elder cat's older years, we had grown more worried about leaving him without someone to check on him daily and attend to his needs. And beyond his dietary and physical health needs, Mac attends to our cat's social and mental needs as well!! Every day while we are gone, we get the most amazing updates from Mac about our cat. Mac sends picture updates of our cat as well as the daily chores and often the most adorable videos of the cat legitimately enjoying his social time with Mac. Our cat is reserved and doesn't warm up often to new faces. Mac has absolutely won our cat over which is a rare feat through patience, the highest caliber of care, and a genuine warmth that I'm sure our cat resonates with. Thank you Mac. We are so grateful to have endless good experiences with Mac's services. A true cat whisperer!

The only thing I worry about when I go on vacations is leaving my cats in someone else’s care, but with Mac I have no worries whatsoever and can go with peace of mind! Mac stayed in contact every day sending me pictures and updates of how the cats were doing. He played with them, gave them treats, and did an excellent job with food and litter maintenance. My cats were well tended to and my shyest cat took to Mac right away! I was quite impressed because my shy boy usually gets so anxious the first day gone that he gets sick but this time my kitty had no incidents and greeted Mac daily. I returned home to two happy cats and no concerns. This is the second time Mac has taken care of my cats and I would happily book him again!

Mac is great with our 3 cats. He sends wonderful updates and photos. He’s put in a lot of effort to get our shy cat to feel more comfortable (asking preferred toys/treats, etc). While she hasn’t totally come around she had days where she was more playful. Mac’s dedication to winning her over just shows how much he cares about the cats he takes care of.

Mac is our go-to cat guru and expert! We have utilized his services and love for cats for about a year on a regular basis now and he always provides phenomenal care and attention to our cat! Mac always follows through and does exactly what he says he is going to do. Mac leaves detailed notes with a variety of photos and videos showing how our cat is doing while we are away. Mac clearly remembers our cat's habits well between visits and treats him like the cat is his very own. Highest of recommendation. We feel so lucky to know someone so kind.

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.

Renton cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. 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!
