Hi, I’m Stacey! I’m a full-time cat mom of Ruby & Riot, and your kitty’s new BFF! With years of experience caring for my own fur babies, I know just how much love, patience, and play it takes to make a cat feel safe and happy. I’m all about slow blinks, cozy naps, treat time, and respecting your fur baby’s unique personality. Whether your cat wants snuggles, solo time, or someone to talk back to them (yes, I do the voices), I’ve got it covered. Think of me as your cat’s personal assistant while you’re away. Cozy vibes & head boops included.

Learn More About Stacey

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Meet my two favorite furballs: Ruby and Riot! Ruby’s my sassy girl, full of attitude, a little queen who rules the house with her soft purrs and fierce cuddles. Riot is my laid-back gentleman, super chill, loves belly rubs.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available any days. Including holidays. Whether it’s a last-minute trip or just a day out, you can count on me to provide loving, reliable care. I understand pets deserve the best, no matter the day!

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

When I’m caring for timid or nervous cats, I always let them set the pace. I give them plenty of space at first, no sudden movements, no forcing interaction. I sit nearby and let them come to me when they’re ready.

Stacey provided the best care for our kitties. She provided detailed daily updates with pics and videos and addressed any concerns we had so we could rest easy knowing she was taking good care of everything. She is kind and compassionate and provided us with much needed peace of mind knowing they were well cared for.

Stacey was very easy to communicate with. One of our cats is shy but he let her pet him which is not common with strangers. We received photo and texted updates when she did visit. Would definitely book with her again!

Stacey was super responsive, friendly, and kind. You can tell she loves cats (and their humans!) She sent us daily check-ins with photos and task status updates (such as litter box cleaned and mail picked up). Despite our security system being multiple steps, she had no issues with getting in. Thank you, Stacey!!

Stacey came daily during our time away, and spent her time with our 2 cats providing loving & competent care. She also was totally on top of bringing in our mail daily, emptying our cat's used kitty litter in our outside garbage bins & making sure our home was locked securely each time she left after each cat visit. We loved the daily update emails she sent us, which included sending us sweet pics of each of our 2 cats - it ensured we felt safe & secure about our cat's health and happiness, along with our home, while we were away. We would definitely recommend Stacey as a wonderful and very competent cat sitter for anyone else considering using her for future cat services.

Stacey is a great communicator with people and cats. She took amazing care of our three cats with regular updates. She handled my older cat’s many medications smoothly, including giving him subcutaneous fluids which can be tricky. Awesome all around!

I recently had the pleasure of having Stacey care for my cat, Rory, while I was away, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From our initial meeting, it was clear that she is a true animal lover. Stacey took the time to understand Rory’s needs and preferences, which made me feel at ease leaving my furry friend in her care. During the sit, she provided regular updates, complete with photos and videos, which reassured me that Rory was happy and well taken care of. Her attention to detail, from feeding to playtime, was impressive, and it showed in how relaxed and content Rory seemed upon my return. I highly recommend Stacey to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable cat sitter. I will definitely use her services again in the future!

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.

Tacoma 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!
