I'm Karla | Cat Sitting in Seattle, WA
Hi, I’m Karla! I’m a part-time carpenter in training and visual artist looking for a side job that I’m truly passionate about. I’ve been a cat lady my entire life and I thought why not try to make a living treating cats like the gods and goddesses they are! There isn’t a time in my life where I didn’t have a kitty nearby to care for. They say “do what you love” and well, buddy, I freaking love cats! I have experience caring for cats at all life stages, including giving prescription medication when needed. One of my dearly departed cats was a sweet little blind tripawd boy who lived to a ripe old age thanks to being utterly spoiled an...

Karla's Reviews
Jasmine
Karla was my first experience with a cat-sitter that wasn't friends or family, & she did an OUTSTANDING job of taking care of our 4 kitties on short notice while we attended a wedding out of state! I'm so glad I went with her friendly face & our kitties got excellent care! I was initially nervous to ask a stranger to wear a mask in our apartment (due to being immunocompromised) along with my request for wearing no-or-low scented products because of my allergies... but Karla immediately provided reassurance, asked what types of masks I prefer she wear, & problem-solved the scent request with ease. She made me feel understood, respected, & that I could put my faith in her to tend to our kitties' care & take the anxiety off my mind while we traveled, which she did. She made sure to run through the list of possible concerns & was very thorough & professional during the meet & greet. Karla was super responsive, asked lots of great questions about behavior, personalities, & needs of each cat, & demonstrated her clear knowledge & even better--true understanding & appreciation of cats & all their weird & amazing quirks! She sent lots of pics/videos, updates on play & food time, & details about tasks she took care of (like cleaning/refilling their water fountain for me when I forgot in the rush of packing, scooping the litter boxes, etc.). Karla was above & beyond awesome, on top of being a super cool, gentle, & calming presence that was just nice to vibe with all-around. Our 2 boy kitties warmed up to her quickly thanks to her cat introduction knowledge & she was *blessed* with the rare appearance of the 2 girls (who usually hide when they hear strangers) so they can also attest to her calm cat energy--our 4 kitties approve: 10 meows out of 10 meows!!! I also highly recommend her for your kitty care!!! :)

Karla takes her work very seriously. If I gave her a task I never had to worry if it would be done or not. She is not afraid to ask for help, has great attention to detail, and loves cats in particular. I would happily leave my two cats in her care without hesitation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Seattle cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
