My name is Ella, I’m a dedicated cat parent to three wonderful kitties- Blossom, Buttercup and Schatzi. So I understand how important it is to have a sitter who truly gets cats.

Learn More About Ella
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love earning a cats trust, providing comfort and ensuring that they feel safe! I want all cats to feel happy and loved especially while their human is away!
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
When working with a new cat parent, I like to start with a conversation to learn about their cats personality, routine and any special care they may need. Before the visit I review all provided instructions carefully and ask any necessary follow up questions.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I take a slow, gentle approach with cats that may be timid. Giving them space to adjust at their own pace. I move calmly, speak softly and use treats or toys if they’re receptive.

Ella's meet and greet was amazing, for the simple fact that my Kiwi was absolutely smitten, kitten by her. She sent me pictures and even videos during the visit. Absolute will have her visit again--Kiwi begs for it! 😸

Ella was amazing!! I needed a last-minute booking and she cheerfully worked with me to make it happen. My girls loved their time with her - even my shy one got purry! Great communication, adorable photos, and happy kitties meant I wasn’t worrying during my time away. I couldn’t recommend Ella more highly and will be booking her again!

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!
