Cat Sitting in Seattle, WA

Hi, I have two cats of my own.

One is super friendly and outgoing and the other is a more closed-off personality (she loves being around people but will only cuddle or let you pet her on her own terms haha). I'm very cautious with new cats since they all have very distinct personalities and ways they like to interact with people. I've also given pill pockets and topical flea and heartburn medication where needed. There was one cat I also did a diabetes shot for (less experience with that though). I'd love to help care for your cats while you're away!

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I started watching cats way back in middle school and have watched many people's cats throughout the years. I'd say about 18 years of off and on watching people's cats - I've watched other pets too but by favorites are always cats.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Getting to know the personalities of the cats I'm watching and giving them some attention and play time while their owners are away. I hate leaving my own cats because they get super sad - so it's nice to be able to comfort cats when I can.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I do!! They are Ketto (short for Boketto) and Auri (short for Aurora) and I spoil them way too much haha. It's really hard to not bring back a toy or two from the pet store when I go to pick up food ... They're both very friendly social cats - Ketto is like the perfect cuddle cat but gets shy with strangers. Auri is a tortoiseshell with some definite "tortitude" - she is super sweet but only wants to be pet on her own terms. We wait for her to come to us when she wants attention - it's funny because she wants to be within six feet of us at all times but doesn't want anyone to touch her haha. She even cries if we close her out of the room we're in. So both of them are real sweet cats in their own ways. :)

My cats love Theresa! They don’t like strangers usually but Theresa won them over. She also helped take care of my sick cat, which is a lot of extra work, including administering medication and cleaning up. We all love her!!

My kitties loved Theresa right away, even the shy one. She asked the right questions, kept their routine, and made sure they had fun.

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 $29.00. 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!
