I have three cats of my own and I also help run a local cat rescue where I handle all of the adoptions and I foster as well - I have fostered spicy cats, shy cats and cats with special needs as well. Through the rescue as well I've placed over 350 cats in their forever homes, working to make sure they found a perfect match. I've also pet sat for friends and family for years. My cats are my children and they are treated as such - and I would love to shower your fur babies with the same love!

Learn More About Chelsea

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

I would look for someone who is confident in their ability to read cat body language. Having a new person around can be scary!

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

I would make sure there's a procedure in place to make sure they don't run outside as well as not leave any toxins, swallow risks, plants or plastic bags our or within reach.

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

I go a little bit at a time. I have a behavioral case as a foster at the moment and I spent over six months working with her to gain her trust.

Chelsea was absolutely fantastic and stepped in for me on extremely short notice when my original sitter unexpectedly became unavailable right before my trip. She immediately put me at ease. She took amazing care of my two cats, sent thoughtful daily updates with photos and videos, and clearly spent quality time with them — not just quick drop-ins. It was obvious from the updates that my cats were comfortable, relaxed, and genuinely excited to see her. One of my boys is usually more standoffish, and even he warmed up to her quickly. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, kept everything clean and tidy, refreshed food and water, handled litter without issue, and honestly left the house looking great when I returned. Communication was excellent the entire trip. You can tell she genuinely cares about animals and takes the responsibility seriously. I’m incredibly grateful she was willing to jump in and help me out in a tight spot. I’ll absolutely be booking Chelsea again for future trips and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter.

Chelsea was super! She bonded with our kitties and always sent us pictures and videos of them after each visit! She made being away for a week easy since we weren’t worried about our kitties! Would definitely recommend!

the reservation was easy but confusing when it came to figuring out the way to chat with Chelsea. But it all worked out. Chelsea came twice daily to take care of Honey. I know my cat won’t always eat wet food for sitters but she continued to try anyway. she left me some tips about that and suggested I think of getting a fountain for the cat. I had already planned to do that so I appreciate the advice. I look forward to having her again in the future

Chelsea did great! We first had a meeting at our home for her to meet Louie and Daisy. Very friendly and professional, asked questions and expectations. She came to our home the days that we requested and sent photos each time. We came home to happy cats! 🌼 🐈‍⬛

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.

Milwaukee cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. 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!
