Treating Your Cat Like Family
"Jocelyn watched my two cats while I was gone for over a week, and it couldn't have gone better. I got updates every day, I could tell from the pictures how happy and well-loved my cats were with her (lots of belly shots!), and she even included pictures of our dog that she wasn't taking care of because she knew we missed him too. I will absolutely book with Jocelyn again, and you should too - wonderful, reliable, kind, and so great with pets!"

Meowdy Purrrrtners
"Wade was the perfect cat sitter! This was our first time booking with Wade, and he made the process easy and stress free. I was worried about leaving our two rescue cats for a week and a half - they can be high anxiety when changes occur. But they seemed to warm up to Wade quickly, and he was sending update pictures of them playing and relaxing in their usual favorite spots. Updates were thorough and regular, and he responded quickly to questions. He asked clarifying questions when instructions were unclear. He understood how to handle our previously stray/skittish cat - the last cat sitter we used seemed to make her anxious, and she wouldn't come out from hiding when the sitter was visiting. We'll be booking with Wade again!"

Trusted Keeper Of Num Nums
"Anna provided consistent and loving care for our furry kids for nearly 2 weeks. She made our vacation time worry free as we knew that Baby Jack and BeBop were well cared for: fed, fresh water, clean bowls, clean litter boxes, and lots of play. She figured out their favorite foods and toys. Anna kept us in the look with photos and videos, which were especially appreciated!"

A Loving Kat For Your Lovely Cats
"Kat was absolutely wonderful, and I highly recommend her! I was away for a week and was very worried about leaving my extremely shy cat. By the second day, my kitty was already coming out to see Kat, accepting pets, and even purring—a true testament to Kat’s patience and gentle nature. She took excellent care of everything: food, water, litter, supplements, mail, and packages. When my anxious kitty got sick and vomited on my bed and even into a heater grate, Kat cleaned it all up without hesitation. What impressed me most was how much she genuinely loves cats. She spent time loving on my kitty and even told me her heart melted when she heard her purr. She also gave me peace of mind by agreeing to contact my out-of-state brother if I didn’t check in after my trip. Kat went far above and beyond. If you want someone who will truly care for your pet and your home, she’s the one. I would gladly trust her with my kitty again."

Pre-Vet Pet Care With Benevolent Brooke
"Brooke did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats for two weeks. Leaving them for so long was stressful, but Brooke's professionalism and exceptional care gave me complete peace of mind. Brooke was able to connect with my cats, who are usually quite shy. She was very patient and made sure they felt comfortable during every visit. By the end of the two weeks, both cats had opened up to her more and she was able to pet them! Brooke also handled giving one of my cats an inhaler during each visit, which is not always easy. Brooke ensured the medication was given while prioritizing keeping my cat as calm as possible. Her communication was outstanding. She sent incredibly thorough daily updates, complete with videos of the cats and everything she did during her visits. She was always very responsive to my messages and communicated clearly and promptly. I highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and deeply caring cat sitter, especially if your pets require a little extra patience or medical attention!"

Sandy
"Sandrine was amazing with my furry baby, Blossom! This was the first time I’d ever used a sitter or traveled without my cat, so I was naturally nervous. I knew Sandrine was the right choice during the initial home visit; Blossom usually hides from strangers, but she stayed out the entire time. Sandrine visited 6 times over a long weekend, providing wonderful photo updates after every visit. Blossom isn't always the friendliest, but she clearly loved Sandrine—she even purred while being pet! I can’t recommend Sandrine enough for her patience and reliability. Highly recommended for any nervous pet parent! I will definitely have her petsit my cat in future travels."

"We had an amazing experience with Paola!! We were nervous to use Meowtel for the first time, but Paola was always on time and communicative, and she sent multiple photos and videos of our cat every night to show that she was eating, playing, and snuggling. We would definitely recommend Paola and look forward to hopefully having her watch our cat more times in the future!!"

Gabby The Feline Fanatic
"Gabby is hands down the best cat sitter ever! She spends time loving our very shy cats and has managed to gain their trust. With each visit comes a text with pictures, a detailed report, and a sense of security that puts us at ease. She also goes the extra mile and takes care of things around the house. Whether it's taking out the garbage or watering the plants, Gabby is always extra accommodating. We will use her as long as she'll have us and recommend her to all anxious cat parents!"

Kitty Condo Hangout
"Gabby was absolutely wonderful! For eighteen straight days, while I was on vacation in England, she faithfully visited my kitties, gave them love, playtime, brushings, scooped their litterboxes, and made sure they felt cared for and secure. With my shy kitty in particular, Gabby had the golden touch — other caretakers over the years never even got to see Mitzi, because Mitzi would hide, aa well as getting finicky about food. But with patience and gentle perseverance, Gabby won Mitzi’s trust to the point where Mitzi would eat her food AND let Gabby brush her! Gabby’s daily updates were wonderful, too — pictures and videos, along with cheery descriptions of how the kitties were doing. I have total confidence in Gabby. She’s a gem! I will definitely continue reaching out to her for cat care in the future."

Meticulous And Experienced Cat Sitter
"Abby is amazing!!! She’s just as meticulous and cat-loving as she advertises, and that means the world to me. I have 3 cats, one of whom is very senior, has health issues, and ended up needing a lot more care than she or I expected. She TRULY cares and did everything exactly right. I can’t wait til she comes again, and neither can my precious cats! (except they’d rather have me than have me gone) She is highly trustworthy, and I rate her AT LEAST a 15/10! I also like her as a person :)"
