I'm Fern
Cat Sitting in Seattle, WA
I love cats and all animals really, but i am a cat. I understand them and get along with them really well. I have had my own since I was about 12.
I'm friendly, outgoing and intuitive. In the past I've sat for friends and I go over for the agreed upon amount of time and always add some cuddles and play time.
I'm fine with complicated feeding situations (my cats have needed different food for a long time) and comfortable wit... Hi,
I love cats and all animals really, but i am a cat. I understand them and get along with them really well. I have had my own since I was about 12.
I'm friendly, outgoing and intuitive. In the past I've sat for friends and I go over for the agreed upon amount of time and always add some cuddles and play time.
I'm fine with complicated feeding situations (my cats have needed different food for a long time) and comfortable with some meds.
I'm available after noon many days per week and I'm a night owl so late night visits are not an issue. Just message me if you need something outside of normal Meowtel hours or a time that isn't listed. I do have more availability possible by request only, and i can open that up for booking for you.
In addition my 20 minute visits are actually 30. 20 is just not enough for a once a day visit. The price is as listed.
Learn More About Fern
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love getting to know new kitties and making them happy. This also makes the human happy which makes me really happy! Lol
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have only one kitty right now. His name is Bear and he's 16.5 years old. I've had him since he was 6 months old. He's in diabetic remission and is thriving with low grade kidney disease. And now hyper thyroid just like me!
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I'd love to come by at least once before the sitting to get to know you and your kitty(ies). Plus the layout of the house. I will take extensive notes on routine and what my assignment is as is my nature. I would love to know their favorite toys, pets and treats if ok.

Fern did such a wonderful job taking care of my 2 cats while I was away for an extended amount of time. She went the extra mile and you can tell that she loves and cares for the kitties. She really took her time getting to know them and allowing them to get to know her. one of my cats is super skidish but she warmed up to Fern in no time. Fern sent me photo updates and overall had such great communication. She was sensitive to any of the needs that my cats needed. It was such a pleasure and so comfortable having her cat sit while I was away. I would highly recommend her!

Rachel is amazing. She's worked for me multiple times. My animals all absolutely adore her. She followed my instructions to the letter, which was really important because I have one with special needs that needs meds on schedule twice a day. I have had other sitters who were late, or even didn't show up at all for some feedings. I have never felt I have to worry whether Rachel will show up on time. She clearly wants to make sure my animals are comfortable, loved, and healthy while I am gone. She is always super responsive to questions, sent me pictures, and was genuinely friendly and easy to work with.

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!
