I'm Maria | Cat Sitting in Escondido, CA
H! My name is Maria and I have been a big cat fanatic my whole life thanks to my grandma. I started volunteering at The Rescue House and Cat Sitting after I graduated from USF and moved to San Diego 4 years ago. It is one of my biggest passions to love on rescue cats until it’s their time to nap in the sun at their forever home. **10% off your first booking auto applied at checkout ** I am excited to meet your fluffy family member during our complimentary me...

Maria was a fantastic sitter! I have never had to hire anyone to check on my cat, but I needed someone to come just in the mornings for my (extremely) shy boy. Unfortunately he never came out but she made sure he had fresh food/water/litter every day, came promptly during the requested hours, and was responsive at all times. Will absolutely book with Maria in the future ☺️

Maria did a fantastic job taking care of our cats. Our male cat loved her immediately. Maria was even able to get our shy cat to come out and play with her. She sent us a lot of great pictures and updates. She exceeded our expectations, and we will definitely try to have her take care of our cats in the future.

Maria was able to get a couple of my furries to come up to her on the intro visit which is rare. she may just be a cat whisperer. I am feeling very comfortable heading out on a 4 day trip and having her stay with my boys and grand kitty.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
