I'm Marina | Cat Sitting in Costa Mesa, CA

Hi, my name is Marina and I have been a cat lover and owner my entire life. I have two sweet boys, Winston and Rico, who I rescued and love more than anything in this world. I had a tortie named Lady who was my everything for 15 years, she and I moved together 3 times and I cared for her through her stroke and kidney disease, there is nothing this cat mom wouldn’t do for her babies....

Marina absolutely saved my cat’s life! My kitty was diagnosed with diabetes less than a week before a trip to Europe I had scheduled with my children. I would have had to cancel the trip if Marina hadn’t agreed to give my cat her twice-daily injections, which was an even bigger challenge because my cat was feeling sick and is naturally shy with strangers. Somehow, Marina was able to coax her out, get her to eat, and administer her medication. She kept in close contact with me during the trip and gave me peace of mind, and I was soon getting videos of my cat purring and enjoying scratches and pets from Marina. Marina is a natural with both felines and humans! 💕

Marina is friendly and responsive. We scheduled a meet and greet and I immediately felt comfortable with her, as did My kitty. My kitty loved her visits, which is a great testament to Marina's relational skill. I loved getting updates, videos, and photos early in the morning. There's nothing better than knowing your pet is in capable, loving hands. I will schedule Marina again.

First time using a Meowtel sitter, and I'm so glad I chose Marina! I was nervous about leaving my two young cats alone but they warmed up to Marina right away. She took care of everything beautifully and reassured me with pics and videos. I hope she'll be available next time I need a sitter!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

If you are not fully satisfied with your sitter after the Meet & Greet or during the reservation, please call 1-844-636-9835 so we can help you re-book with a new sitter to ensure we can deliver on our purrfect hospitality promise.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $41.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
