I grew up on a farm in Wisconsin and I've always loved animals— especially cats since I've lived with many of them over the years. I currently live with two cats here in Seattle; A 20 year old grandma and an 11 year old toddler.

I've spent 4 years at HSMC, (Wausau, WI) volunteering there as a cat advocate. I would spend my time with many cats cleaning their kennels, washing laundry and of course, playing with them.

I have experience administering oral liquid medication, topical flea/tick medication, inhalers and ear drops to cats.

As for hours of service in neighborhoods, I reside in Shoreline by Hamlin Park (98155) and can drive/bus to you. My availability is currently more flexible this quarter, but may change in the near future.

My third and most recent covid vaccination was in December of 2021. I constantly sanitize, wash my hands and maintain cleanliness.

It's our second time having Pat cat sit. We're so thankful for Pat's patience with our last minute notes about our cat having some anal gland issues right before we left for our trip. Pat puts us at ease with all the detailed updates, as she kept a close eye on our cat's behavior and litterbox use at each visit. Our shy cat thoroughly enjoyed Pat's company at each visit, which is a huge relief for us. Many many thanks, Pat!

Pat was the epitome of kind and calm from our intro meeting through her entire weeklong stay (overnights) with our feisty cat. She exceeded all expectations with imaginative play and daily pictures/updates. We returned to a tidy home and a happy kitty. Will definitely ask for Pat next time we travel!!!

Pat was great. She showed up every day at the time she said she would, fed and checked in on the kitties, scooped the litter box, took pics of the cats, and was sure to leave a light on and lock the door. Will use her services again.

Paterla was wonderful. Artemis is always very shy and Paterla is the first sitter that’s able to get Artie to come out herself.

Pat is great! She was so sweet and provided great photos and updates while I was gone. My cat is pretty shy about giving love to strangers but was rubbing on Pat by the end of the weekend. I would definitely recommend Pat!

Paterla was a wonderful overnight companion for our Sua! Coming home last night Sua was calm and content, actually I think she wondered when Pat was coming. This was a repeat booking. We would never hesitate to have her sit Sua.

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 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 Meet & Greet!
