Above and beyond Marissa being a dream and the most amazing cat sitter ever! I also forgot to highlight she is also an amazing photographer, she sends the most cute, action packed and funny photos of our three girls. It’s the best time of day when I am on my trip and I receive Marissa’s photos of our girls!

Marissa is exactly what I dreamt of when dreaming for the perfect cat sitter. And to call her that seems like an understatement. She is more like a cat whisperer! She gets our cats to come out and play with her and she even got our shy girl to come out and take a treat from her…absolutely unheard of! If you have a social cat, shy cat, playful cat, or a chill cat then Marissa is for you.

Marissa, was wonderful. She kept us informed with wonderful pictures. We have one kitty that is not a people cat, but Marissa still tried to find her. Jaxs our special needy kitty was cared for with care. She did a fantastic job with feeding and keeping every clean!! Thank you

Marissa was the perfect cat sitter for us! she paid close attention to both of our kitties and gave then all the love they wanted. She gave us detailed updates and the most amazing photo updates. It was the first time the kitties had been left alone for such a long period of time and we were a little anxious initially, but Marissa did an amazing job!!

We wanted to find a great match for our girls while we were away for a week and Marissa was wonderful! One of my kitties is more on the shy side and on her first day with Marissa I was sent photos of her playing. We hope to be able to book Marissa again soon 🧡

Marissa, what a joy you were. My husband and I had to travel out of state for a week and she was so amazing! She sent so many cute photos of my cats and gave detailed updates every visit. When my orange cat had a runny eye, she let informed me and administered her drops to her. I highly recommend this caregiver for any of your pet care needs! 🐱❤️

Marissa is an absolute gem 💎. She followed all my instructions/recommendations. She pleased both my senior girl with extra treats and pets and managed to get my young, shy girl to play with her. She sent numerous photos each visit and let me know if anything seemed odd. I will definitely use her again the next time I have a long visit out of town.

Marissa is great with our kitties! She even gets our shy boys to open up. She spends a good amount of time playing with them and giving them love (if they want lol) and she makes sure everything is taken care of (water, food, litter, other household stuff like bringing in mail and trash cans). Thank you, Marissa!

Data was very well taken care of by Marissa! I loved seeing how happy the guy was receiving food, love, and attention! He even gave her a ton of head butts! Marissa was also super communicative, her updates made me feel reassured, and she was proactive in every way! Definitely recommend her!

Frequently Asked Questions
Escondido 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.
