I'm Ruth | Cat Sitting in Danville, CA

I am a lifetime cat owner and currently mom to two sweet boys! I can't remember a time I haven't had at least two cats and cherish their independent yet loving personalities. I have also fostered cats so I am adept at juggling more than one feline at a time. Currently, my senior kitties require diabetic shots and oral medicines so I am very familiar and comfortable with administering medications. I work from home and am flexible in hours I can visit and tend to your...

This is the second time Ruth has looked after our two cats when we were away on vacation. She was reliable and punctual and took great care of our pets and our home. We received daily pictures and updates, making our trip stress free. Definitely recommend.

Ruth is amazing! She was punctual, completely reliable and our two kittens (3 month olds who who had not left on their own before) adored her! She looked after them (and our home) as if they were her own. She also sent updates, photos and videos every day. She went above and beyond to ensure they were safe and happy in every respect - and very loved! I cannot recommend Ruth highly enough.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

The average price for a cat sitter is $42.00.

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.
