I'm Cynthia | 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 3 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 and an in-home caregiver to children with special needs. During my visit, I will: -feed your cat(s), according to your guidelines -top off/refill water bowls -administer medication, if needed (oral medications, topical ointments, & flea preventatives) -scoop/change the litter box -play and cuddle -bring in the mail/packages (optional) -...
Cynthia's Reviews

Cynthia was absolutely amazing. It is such a relief to know that someone who loves cats as much as I do is taking care of my furbabies. The photos and daily updates really put my mind at ease and Cynthia really went above and beyond taking care of my home. I cannot recommend them enough.

Second time booking Cynthia and she was amazing as usual! Communication is clear and updates were amazing. She's a pro at getting adorable pictures of your fur babies. Follows instructions to a tee and even goes above and beyond by vacuuming before we got back and bringing in packages. Highly recommend!

The cat-whisperer strikes again! This is the second time we have utilized Cynthia’s services and we have been so happy with her care! One of our two cats is very anxious and shy, but Cynthia has been able to charm her, which brings me such comfort while we’re away. Cynthia took great care of our fur babies while we went out of town for a few days. She made sure they had fresh food and water, gave them their treats and lots of TLC. They were in great spirits when we returned! We are so grateful for Cynthia’s time, energy, love and care. Her presence allowed us to enjoy our time away without worries; that peace of mind was invaluable! We will definitely be reaching out to Cynthia again the next time we go on vacation.

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Cynthia!! Our cats have really never known a life where we weren’t always home, so when we were going to be away for 3 nights, finding Cynthia and this resource was exactly what we needed… and so much more! Cynthia really went above and beyond during her two 45 minute visits. She made fast friends with our cats Wednesday and Pugsley; Wednesday has pretty severe anxiety issues but Cynthia was able to win her over right away! Cynthia took a TON of pictures, which were so nice to see while we were gone; we could tell the cats were enjoying their time together! As an incredible bonus, Cynthia captured some pretty impressive action shots! 😸She made sure the kitties had fresh food & water, went through our daily play and treats ritual, and gave them some much needed & appreciated time, attention, and affection. The cats were both better adjusted when we returned home than any other time we’ve travelled; I was so so grateful for that. Cynthia also kept an eye on our home during her visits; she brought in our trash bins from the curb, turned on security systems and outside lights, and she even turned on our sprinkler outside (we are especially grateful for this considering the 105+ temps!!)! It should be noted that while we didn’t need the following, Cynthia was also ready and willing to do things like bring in the mail, take out cat litter, water plants, and bring in packages. Overall we are beyond pleased with Cynthia and her services while we were away. The peace of mind she gave us was invaluable!!We would and will absolutely happily recommend her, and would love to invite her back again in future! Thank you, Cynthia!! 😸

Cynthia did an AMAZING job watching our Noodle while we were on an international trip! We always looked forward to her updates - they were super detailed and she included a ton of great photos. She was so attentive to his needs and made sure to really get some playtime and grooming in during her visits. We felt so comfortable knowing Cynthia was checking in on Noodle and would absolutely recommend her and use her again!

Frequently Asked Questions
Elk Grove cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $33.00. 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.
