Cat Sitting in Cathedral City, CA

I really value connection with all animals. I pay attention to their body language and don’t push on them until I know it’s welcomed.

I really value connection with all animals. I pay attention to their body language and don’t push on them until I know it’s welcomed. I used to always think of myself as a dog person until I unexpectedly took in my ex-partner’s senior cat back in 2014. I quickly had a crash course on how to take care of a cat and not just feeding him and cleaning out his litter box, but showing him the care and affection that every pet deserves. Taking the time to get to know him and all his habits and personality so i can truly take care of him. He passed away 8 years ago and I still miss him dearly. Since then i have cat sat for friends’ cats of all ages, kittens, teens, adults. i have lots of energy so I enjoy playing with them. i jusy moved to the Palm Springs area and my roommate has 5 cats and I instantly bonded with two of them and i share the responsibility of caring for all of them.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Bonding with the cats I would say is what I enjoy the most especially if I’m having a rough day.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Hire someone who actually likes to spend time with cats and gives them attention and not just stop over and go immediately when the task is done.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Most holidays yes because I like to avoid the crowds. the exception may be Halloween because that’s my favorite holiday.

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.

Cathedral City 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 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 Meet & Greet!
