Cat Sitting in Bakersfield, CA

Hiiii!! I’m Aspen, a local photographer, wife, mom, and cat mom! šŸ¤— I have always had a love of cats and the way they are sassy, independent introverts (like me). Before I met my husband, I was all in on following Enya’s life path of living alone in a castle with just her cats. 🤣 In additio... Hiiii!! I’m Aspen, a local photographer, wife, mom, and cat mom! šŸ¤— I have always had a love of cats and the way they are sassy, independent introverts (like me). Before I met my husband, I was all in on following Enya’s life path of living alone in a castle with just her cats. 🤣 In addition to my love of cats, I love caring for them and am great with directions and will respect whatever you and your sweet baby needs. It would be so pawsome to be considered to care for your feline friend(s) while on your human adventures! Thank you for your time and have a beautiful day! ā™„ļø

Learn More About Aspen

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two cats that I love dearly!! I have Gravy, who loves to be lazy and sleep on his back all the time, and Eugene who loves pretending he is a tiger in the jungle in our backyard! They are polar opposites but are the sweetest brothers!

Are you usually available during holidays?

I may be available for some holidays! I likely will not be available on Thanksgiving and Christmas, but please feel free to check in just in case!

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

They are 100% in charge and I will respect their boundaries and proceed accordingly! I never want to make them feel uncomfortable. Having a new human around can be difficult sometimes and I want the transition to be as seamless as possible.

This week

Aspen was the absolute purrrrfect fit for our 3 babies! We've never left all 3 of them before, and we had to go out of town for three full days so believe me, we were totally nervous.... but meeting her really melted away all our fears. She was kind, helpful, funny, and clearly a cat person / fellow cat momma which was a huge plus-- the perfect match for our babies to feel comfortable while we're gone. Honestly, when we got home it hardly seemed like they missed us they had such a great time with her (and their crazy parties they had while alone of course LOL). She kept us updated with adorable pics and funny stories, kept us laughing and smiling and kept the anxiety away. Our family would HIGHLY recommend this sitter and app!

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.

Bakersfield cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $28.00. 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!
