Not to excited

Neutrální dojmy

Meowtel lined us up with our cat sitter, Julaine, who was terrific. She deserves 5 stars in our opinion. And we don't want to annoy Meowtel too much 'cuz someday I'm sure Julaine will go on to something different than catsitting and then we'll want to come back here to find another catsitter. But.... Meowtel's online experience still leaves a lot to be desired. Like the invitation to write a review. It provided a link, but it just went to the login page which by default asks you if you want to book another sitter. You have to search for the place at the bottom where you can go to Trustpilot and post your review. And the actual experience of booking a sitter on the website? Don't get me started. Suffice it to say that if Meowtel is going to remain viable, and I hope they do, they need to put in a lot more work on making the online experience more intuitive and user-friendly. My advice? Spend a bit less on marketing, and a bunch more on website development.

Great site to find a cat sitter but watch out for scheduling a trip in advance — their platform automatically charges your credit card when the sitter accepts your calendar request. I had my trip’s total charge on my credit card account two months prior to the actual trip!

I am relieved this service is available. Although my experience was mediocre at best. I was anticipating more photos of my cat, and only got a couple over a weeks time. Also I had to reach to to ensure a visit was done, and if it were me I’d notify the cat parents when I was there and what I did daily. Anyways I’m glad my cat was cared for, that is what is most important and I may consider using this service again, but if I found something else or had a friend who could do it, I wouldn’t.

It was definitely better than having our boy locked up in a cage for two weeks. He had a room to himself, and someone to play with for a little each day. That said, it definitely wasn’t what I was expecting. Because the sitter had so many other pets, at least one of whom was described as “hissy”, Stu (our cat) wasn’t able to leave that one room for two weeks. Also, the home page of the site reads, “No. . . growls, or yowls.” This led us to believe there would be no dogs, but there was at least one (along with, if I remember correctly, 8 other cats). The sitter was very nice, kept us updated pretty frequently, kept Stu brushed and fed and cared for, was accommodating with price and time, and Stu seemed to really like her; but, I’m honestly a little disappointed about the arrangement. I don’t think we would use the service again outside of another extreme circumstance.

they had trouble keeping tract of my girl cat. When I filled out the paper work, i did state that she is very shy and slow to warm up. They both like being together and not do like being apart. She got locked in the bathroom for several hours.

The site did not work well.
