I have been working as a pet and housesitter for over ten years now. It is an honor and a privilege to be of service.

I am happy to work with families that have cats with the full range of medical conditions and personality types.

I am comfortable taking as much time as is needed to foster a bond and feel that this relationship built is symbiotic.

I look forward to hearing from you further and having the opportunity to provide care to your furry family member(s) while you travel and adventure with comfort in knowing they are being well tended to.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

A major motivation in doing this work is how much I love animals and how emotionally and mentally rewarding it is to have that opportunity to build that mutually beneficial bond between a pet and yourself.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available almost all holidays, I enjoy being available during that time, is it a time I celebrate as well too. The ability to spend time with animals is a gift for me already, further enhanced by the knowledge that there are wins all around as the humans can travel with peace of mind and the furries can stay home where they are comfortable as well too.

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

I would say my go to first way of being around a timid or anxious cat is to be hyper sensitive of how I even move in a shared space with them. I will completely pause where I am standing, look down, I may even decide that I do not need to continue heading the way they are currently, if I do need to go that direction, I may walk backwards or walk sideways so my back is towards them. My whole attitude is that they are in control of when or how contact takes place. Meals are usually times where trust can be built as I consistently do all the things to contribute to a predictable and nuturing environment.

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!
