The app is very easy to use. I was able to find the perfect catsitter by using the search feature and reading the bios. Sana did an amazing job of caring for my kitty and she was able to communicate daily with me through the Meowtel app. I love the feature that allows you to pay according to time spent with your pet. I will definitely be using this app again! Thank you!

My sitter was great with communication. My shy guy came out and let her pet him which is a plus. Not all my Rover pet sitting experiences have been great so I love there is a new company.

Found the best cat sitter through this app! The app also allows texting and photos to and from the sitter. My call to Customer Service was promptly returned
and she quickly helped me resolve the problem I’d created when I’d updated the app. I frequently recommend this app and service to cat people!

It was a good experience. You get to pick your sitter, meet them beforehand, and they send you updates while you're away. It completely set my mind at ease.

We have been using Meowtel since 2020 when we had to travel out of state due to a sudden death in the family. We have experienced the best care for our cats. We have been having Tina cat sit, for the last 3 years and we highly recommend her. We love getting the updates and photos of our fur-babies.

I had such a great experience with Meowtel! The sitter I found provided excellent care - she was kind, great with my cat, and followed my instructions perfectly. She also sent detailed updates (with adorable photos). I will definitely use her (and Meowtel!) again!

Meowtel's vetted and professional sitters give us untold piece of mind with our cats and home. Our cat sitter went the extra mile on countless occasions and really takes care of all the details. Most importantly, we always come home to happy and healthy cats.

Meowtel and my cat sitter were easy to interact with and had my cat’s needs and wants at the center of their work. Would definitely use my sitter again, or if she wasn’t available, I would trust someone else from Meowtel.

Mercedes my pet sitter made me feel so comfortable leaving my kitties (my boys).
She was confident and very calm with my ferrel boy. She came over before I left and met both boys. Which involved her laying on the floor and sticking her arm under a chest giving Maco a treat and letting him smell her. First day she sent me a picture of Maco out from under his chest and eating treats. My other boy just loved her and couldn't wait to play with the laser. With a few days my ferrel boy was sitting on the couch with her eating treats next to her. I know that I can leave town now and my boys will be loved and taken care of. The pictures and videos every day were the best

I cancelled within an hour of making a reservation. It was impossible to get a refund back to my original payment method. Instead, Meowtel put it into my account balance. I kept trying to click on different links. There was no refund account section with an option to put the amount back onto my credit card.
The one and only time I will ever book with this company.
It sucks to have to spend this much time for something that should take 2-3 minutes. Now I have to call them back. Impossible to figure out. The site is confusing, not at all user-friendly.
Yuck.

Diane with Meowtel, made it possible for us to travel without being worried about our kitties. We have one who deals with stress induced cystitis and she requires medicine daily. Diane was amazing! We receive pictures each visit and great messages about the kitties and any updates. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend the service.

We LOVED Jen! She took such incredible care of our senior kitty Duke. She gave him two medicines a day and spent a lot of quality time with him as well. She sent us pictures every day and was very kind and thoughtful. She even helped us by taking our trash in and out. We rate her 10000000/10 and will for sure hire her again.

My cat sitter, Mary Beth, was wonderful. She sent me photos and detailed reports every visit. My senior cat is shy and needs special attention and Mary Beth was patient and caring with her. I like that Meowtel specializes in cats, as most services are for dogs. I will definitely use Meowtel and Mary Beth again!

My husband and I have been using Meowtel for the past year and a half now. The app is easy and straightforward to use. It has all the features you need like the ability to message your sitter, post and read reviews, and update your and your kitty’s information. The only feature I would add is the ability to modify an existing reservation…like shorten and/or extend it.

Reply from Meowtel
Great App. Let´s you find a cat sitter easily, and also allows for the management of the reservation as it is happening. Have used the app about 4 times, all cat sitters have been excellent.

Reply from Meowtel
The sitter was meticulous in taking notes and following through. She sent great photos at every visit, and was so pleasant. I trust her completely.

Meowtel makes it so convenient to find a great cat sitter. I’ve used them for my last few vacations and I have so much more peace of mind when I’m gone.

Reply from Meowtel
I was a little skeptical using Meowtel though it was recommended by my vet. I was hesitant permitting a stranger access to my home. But at Christmas boarding places were full. My fears were unfounded as the caretaker was excellent: even adding an extra visit on her own initiative. I would not hesitate to use them again.

Bobbie is great! I must say I am impressed, especially since my cat is usually shy, but he got familiar with Bobbie right away. Bobbie followed all the instructions and treated my cat well (changing his water, giving him treats, etc.). She played with him, and he liked her, which is very important to me.
I even had to add one more day to my reservation because my cat liked her so much. There was a snowstorm during my reservation (1–2 days), but Bobbie still came to take care of Ollie. I really appreciate her dedication!
In addition, kudos to Meowtel! This was my first time using the service, and I’m sure I’ll use it again. My reservations were during the holidays, around New Year's, so it was a bit difficult to contact my cat sitter at first. I reached out to Meowtel, and they got in touch with her right away. They kept communicating with me to ensure I was comfortable and that everything was going smoothly with my reservations and other requests.
