Cat Sitting in Concord, CA

All my life, I have loved cats! And all my life I have lived with a cat - in childhood the family cat, and in adult life my, cat-children. In my house, pets are family! And I will treat your cats with all the respect and affection I give my own...plus a little more because they will be nervous in your absence. I have rescued neighborhood strays, and fostered several cats to adoption. I've also nursed a few of my own babies through chronic health conditions. In short, cats are my friends, and I know how to treat them right :-) Both overnight stays and day visits are possible... All my life, I have loved cats!

I have rescued neighborhood strays, and fostered several cats to adoption. I've also nursed a few of my own babies through chronic health conditions. In short, cats are my friends, and I know how to treat them right :-) Both overnight stays and day visits are possible. I prefer to work in central Contra Costa County: Walnut Creek, Pleasant Hill, Concord, Martinez, Lafayette and Orinda, but please try me if you live in another location, and I will see what I can do!

When I am not spending time with cats, I can usually be found helping high school students learn math. I have a small business as an educator, tutor and coach. Math is my main subject because I enjoy breaking down something that seems complex and mysterious to students, and putting it in simple every day terms. That said, I tutor a variety of subjects to students of almost any grade level. It's very satisfying to me to help people learn!

I look forward to chatting with you and meeting your furry ones soon :-)

Ali was good about keeping me informed about how things were going. Mt cat hid when Ali came by to meet her so I didn’t see them together this time.

Allie was so good about sending pictures and letting me know how my fur babies were doing. She went above and beyond, bringing in my mail and packages. I will certainly ask her to cat sit 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.

Concord cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $39.00. 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!
