Calm Home Cat Care

I'm Allysa

Cat Sitting in Seattle, WA

I provide thoughtful, detail-oriented in-home care for cats, with a focus on creating a calm, low-stress experience tailored to each individual animal.

I’ve lived with cats since early childhood and currently care for four of my own. In addition, my experience as a foster caregiver has given me a deep understanding of feline behavior across a wide range of temperaments—including shy, anxious, and medically sensitive cats.

I approach cat sitting with a high level of attentiveness and respect for both your home and your routines...
I provide thoughtful, detail-oriented in-home care for cats, with a focus on creating a calm, low-stress experience tailored to each individual animal.

I’ve lived with cats since early childhood and currently care for four of my own. In addition, my experience as a foster caregiver has given me a deep understanding of feline behavior across a wide range of temperaments—including shy, anxious, and medically sensitive cats.

I approach cat sitting with a high level of attentiveness and respect for both your home and your routines. My goal is not just to “check in,” but to ensure your cat feels secure, understood, and well cared for in your absence.

Clients value working with me because I offer:

🐾 Consistent, reliable care with close attention to detail
🐾 Insight into feline behavior, allowing me to adjust to each cat’s needs
🐾 Clear, thoughtful updates with photos after each visit
🐾 Respectful, professional presence in your home
🐾 A calm, patient approach—especially with shy or sensitive cats

I understand that inviting someone into your home—and trusting them with your cat—is significant. I take that responsibility seriously and aim to provide a level of care that feels seamless and reassuring from start to finish.

Currently not accepting bookings, but maintaining my profile for future availability.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful Allysa is! My cat simply loves her as much as I do. Her attention to detail, the playtime she devotes to each visit, is always reassuring when I am away. The pics sent of my cat playing are proof of how much fun he's having!🥰

Allysa made sure that my cats were doing well during my two week holiday out of state. She made sure to ensure they are on every visit, spent time playing with them, and refilled their water fountain as well. She also kept me in the loop during her visits with great pictures and updates.

This is our second time using Alyssa and she’s great. I feel like she goes above and beyond. Sadly this time she had to clean up a fair amount of cat puke and she did so very graciously and without complaint and then emptied both litter genies. I didn’t expect her to do any of this and she did so immediately, without me even asking. 10/10 will use again and would recommend!

I was nervous to leave my cats with a new sitter, but Allysa was great! My cats seemed to love her. She sent me updates and cute photos every time she visited my cats. She also gave one of my cats three different medications with no problems.

Allysa was awesome! She provided consistent pictures and updates and was super accommodating with scheduling and coordinating the visits. She was able to make my super shy cat totally comfortable in just a matter of days. Outstanding work!

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.

Seattle 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!
