Cat Sitting in Berkeley, CA

Hello fellow Meowtel cat parents! I am a health care worker and cat-obsessed human who loves hanging out with my family's fluffy cat named Kora, my boyfriend's cute-Tripod-Bombay kitty Mishi, and any other kitties I can find. I enjoy catsitting the cats of others, since I don't have the space to own more cats of my own. Over the past few years, I have been the regular catsitter for a few different families. The cats I have cared for in the past have all had very different personalities and temperaments... Hello fellow Meowtel cat parents! I am a health care worker and cat-obsessed human who loves hanging out with my family's fluffy cat named Kora, my boyfriend's cute-Tripod-Bombay kitty Mishi, and any other kitties I can find. I enjoy catsitting the cats of others, since I don't have the space to own more cats of my own. Over the past few years, I have been the regular catsitter for a few different families. The cats I have cared for in the past have all had very different personalities and temperaments. Whether your kitty is an affectionate love-bug or a super shy, scaredy-cat, I am happy to care for any kitty! I have also had experience administering transdermal medication, liquid oral medication via syringe, insulin injections, and inhalers. I have had many years of watching over cats for family and friends, but I have enjoyed using Meowtel to find more cool cats to hang with!

Due to my daytime job with longer hours (3 x 10 hour days), I am currently accepting mostly overnight visit reservations, but feel free to reach out about potential 1x/day visits.

I look forward to meeting you (and your kitties) and taking care of them while you get to enjoy your travels! :)

I can honestly say that I can relax on vacation knowing Kristina is taking care of my dear cat companion NoWay. She is always careful, thoughtful, and always communicates so well every day of her care. I have always been relieved when she is available for my time away from home.

Kristina listens carefully to the information I share about my cat’s habits, preferences, and needs. i trust her judgement and know she will give my cat the best care in my absence. I have asked Kristina to care for my cat on two occasions and will always look for her schedule first when I need care for my cat.

Kristina was great! Daily updates on how our cats were doing with videos made us feel so much better about being away, and our cats seemed to love her.

I was a first time Meowtel user so I was bit stressed with finding a sitter. From the get-go Kristina was wonderful to work with. She’s prompt with her communication, asks great questions and took notes. She sent daily updates of my kitten which helped me feel reassured. Definitely booking again!

Kristina was an absolute pleasure to work with and my two girls loved her! Kristina was responsive and worked with me to get her my keys. Just as importantly, she took great care of the cats, sent me updates, and sent me very cute photos! I’d definitely trust her with my cats again.

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.

Berkeley cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $37.00. 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!
