Cat Sitting in Elk Grove, CA

Hello! My name is Cynthia, and I love cats!
I have had cats in my home since I was born so I can't help but have so much love for them. I have been cat-sitting since I was a teenager, but have been doing it professionally for the past 4 years. I am a single mom to my (human) 13-year-old son, and we are both fortunate to have 4 cats in our family (Dipsy, Nala, Monkey, and Marshmallow)! I am also a dance/fitness teacher, an in-home caregiver to children with special needs, and a self-employed tax professional.

During my visit, I will:
-feed your cat(s), according to your guidelines
-top off/refill water...

Our Wednesday and Pugsley love Cynthia!! 😻 This is the third time that we’ve hired Cynthia to check on our cats while we’ve gone away, and it won’t be the last! Cynthia is always incredibly thorough and thoughtful; she gives us such wonderful peace of mind! Cynthia spends quality time playing with the cats, gives them treats, and ALWAYS delivers the best action shots as a recap. 😹 Our babies are in a better mood and much calmer when we return, thanks to Cynthia’s attention and expertise. We are so grateful; thank you, Cynthia!! 😸

Cynthia did amazing with my two cats. She was able to have the shy one open up and come out to greet her. She was consistent and did great with giving my other kitty medication twice a day. She followed instructions well, took notes, and was very flexible. She even changed out my Ring camera battery when I asked and took out the trash on the last day! I appreciated being about to trust her with my kitties while I was on vacation!

Cynthia is a fantastic catsitter! She listened carefully to instructions during meet and greet, and followed my checklist meticulously during the visits. Made me feel at ease while I was away for an extended period of time. Looking forward to more visits from Cynthia in the future!!

We had such a great experience with Cynthia! We were honestly nervous about leaving town, but having her come take care of our cat made us feel so much better. She went above and beyond, sending us pictures and a checklist of everything she completed during the visits. We could tell she genuinely cared and was attentive to every detail. We would absolutely recommended her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter!

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.

Elk Grove cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. 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!
