I cared for many cats growing up, and as an adult I cared for my 3-legged boy - Stitch - for 3 years. My friends have trusted me as their cat & house sitter for an elderly (medicated) tripod cat, and also to come soothe and locate their cats who were hiding during a house flood. As a pet sitter I understand cats' needs for both routine and novelty. I have enjoyed volunteering doing trap-neuter-release, reading about cat beha...

Calvin's Reviews
Amy
Calvin was great with two shy kitties! Great care and loved the updates and pictures.
Alanna
Calvin was amazing! He was quick to communicate when I had any questions and gave detailed notes on how my kitties were and how their time together was. I also loved the cute photos and videos they sent! As a fellow Meowtel cat sitter, it is so nice to have my own cat sitter I can trust when I go out of town. 🫶😸

Lindsay
Calvin did an amazing job caring for my two kitties while I was away for a long weekend. In addition to arriving home to two happy, well fed cats and clean litter boxes, I was sent plenty of cute videos and pics as well assuring me they were happy in Calvin’s care (even my shy baby came out from her usual hiding place to play!). would happily hire Calvin again!

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
