Cat Sitting in Burbank, CA
Every cat is different and have their own personalities. Whether it b... We wish we could take our cats everywhere we go, but sadly we can’t. As someone who has grown up with cats, I completely understand. Let me ease your mind and watch your furbabies while you’re out, and I will treat them like my own.
Every cat is different and have their own personalities. Whether it be sleepy cuddles, exciting play time, or a quick refill of their bowls, I’m here to help in any way that I can. You won’t worry too much, as I love to send photos and provide updates along the way.
Help me understand what you need as an owner, and I will learn to understand your cats as my companions.
Learn More About Lauren
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have cats back home at my parents house that I grew up with. Two boys and one girl. The oldest boy is named Rocket because he was super fast as a kitten but now he’s old and likes to take long naps. The middle cat is named Luna but we call her Kitty. She is very sassy and loves to hunt outside. The youngest cat is named Topo Chico, and he is playful and loves to eat. Here in LA, my boyfriend has a cat named Leo that I often watch. He’s always at an arms distance but loves to be right next to me and when its time to play, he lets me know.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
Always have a quick meet and greet before handing the keys over to a stranger. Ensure your cats get a whiff of the new person entering your home and that you have a list of guidelines for the cat sitter. Make sure the cat sitter understands your expectations and if they’re asking additional questions, they mean business.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Since I have a car back home that is very shy and anxious, I make sure to make little noise and allow the cat to move at their pace. Allowing a cat to sniff objects of mine before reaching for some loving pets/scratches, is important. Once a there’s a loud noise or quick sudden movement that scares an anxious cat, it can take a while to restart that process. I think patience and remaining calm is the best way to go. Once contact is made, giving a treat and some light scratches is also a great way to gain their trust.

Lauren took care of my cat for 2 weeks while I was traveling for work. She did an amazing job, sending me daily photos and I trust her with him every time I travel. She’s just consistent and reliable. I recommend her with no caveats.

Burbank cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $36.00. 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!
