Learn More About April

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

2011 I began cat sitting professionally. I provide drop in care and also overnight care.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy keeping the routine the cat is used to. Feeding, playing and treat time when they have come to expect it.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I appreciate all the information the cat's person wants to tell me about their cat.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have one cat named, Squeak.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I learn about the needs of the cat and also what I can do to help the cat parent feel confident that their beloved cat will be safe and well cared for.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Making certain exterior doors and windows are secure and items are cat safe that are left out on the counters.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am available during holidays.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I enjoy playing with cats and their toys. Each cat has their preference and it is fun to discover new toys. My cat enjoys playing catch with her toy mice. I think the red light chase game is fun for many cats.

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

I sit quietly and allow them to come to me. I feed them and give them their approved treats. I speak in a calm and quiet voice to the cats. Sometimes I read aloud the instructions their person has provided.

I found April because my cat sitter bailed on me the day I flew out of town. April was quick to respond and relieve my worries about my kitten being home alone. She took care of my baby Elia and I came home to a happy welcoming kitty 😺 Thank you April, you're a life saver!! I'd definitely book her again!

April did an amazing job, and we highly recommend you put your concerns at rest when hiring her to watch your babies! April is prompt, responsive, and a consummate professional. She is an intuitive cat lover. We have one cat who is super loving, and another who is a little stand-offish when meeting a new person, and she had the best way of meeting their individual needs, even as that changed day by day.

April made us feel like our cats were in great hands. We got helpful and encouraging updates the whole time and she even got our shy cat to come out! We came home to some happy little girls and now we're using April every time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Spanaway 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.
