Hi, I'm Korbi Kay! Teaching puppy yoga made me realize how much I miss having pets. Let me shower your cat with well-deserves care! I'm punctual, attentive, and dedicated to your cat living the best possible life.
I treat other people's cats the way I would treat mine: with unconditional love.
I'm overly detail-oriented and committed to creating a happy, supportive environment.
My psychology BA helps me with behavioral animal training. I grew up with animals (both cats and dogs), and my cat Zoolander--who I got in college--lived to be 15 years old.
In addition to furry friends, I'm passionate about Pilates, creative writing, sushi, and Calvin & Hobbes.

Learn More About Korbi Kay

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I dearly miss my cat Zoolander, who lived to be 15 years old. He died last year, and life hasn't been the same ever since.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I ask as many questions as I can, to make sure I understand everyone's needs. Proper cat sitting entails not just handling the cat, but making sure cat parents feel comfortable. As someone who had anxiety when others would watch my cat, I empathize!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I have an extra soft spots for shy or sensitive cats. I typically let them do their thing, but create ample opportunity for them to bond (loving words, toys, treats, etc).

Korbi did a fantastic job with our nervous kitty. She was able to get her to come out from hiding by being patient and non assertive. We couldn't be happier with her professionalism and care.

Korbi Kay was great! I told her it was our first time leaving our kitty for the weekend and she made sure that our cat Sagwa was comfortable and at ease during our trip :) She sent me regular updates with pictures including if she ate or not, and kept my house nice and tidy! Sagwa was comfortable around her and she gave her space like I asked her too (: She also gave her treats! I highly recommend Korbi!! We will definitely be booking her again!

Korbi Kay cat sat for me overnight for 5 days. My cat and house was well cared for and had a worry free vacation. When I returned, my house was immaculate. I would certainly ask Korbi 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.

Costa Mesa cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $33.00. 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!
