I'm Arbi
Cat Sitting in Glendale, CA
I am gentle, kind, attentive, and empathetic. I truly love cats and want to give them exactly what they need during the time I spend with them. My four months of experience with kittens gives me... I fostered two kittens for about 4 months in 2020. One of the kittens, Walter, makes an appearance in my cover photo. Walter and I had a very special connection. I loved the experience, and I am looking for an opportunity to have interaction with cats and kittens!
I am gentle, kind, attentive, and empathetic. I truly love cats and want to give them exactly what they need during the time I spend with them. My four months of experience with kittens gives me the necessary insight to know how to handle the different personalities and needs cats have.
I live in Glendale and service the Glendale-Burbank-Eagle Rock-Tujunga area.
I graduated from USC film school in 2003, and I have been in the cinema industry for over 15 years. I run operations for a digital cinema distribution company. In my free time, I like to run, hike, and play pickleball. I enjoy live events, e.g., stand-up comedy, concerts, and sports.

Arbi did a great job taking care of Olive! This was our first time using Meowtel and we booked fairly last minute before heading out of town for the Thanksgiving break. We appreciated how quickly we were able to coordinate a meetup, how fast he was to respond and for his awesome photo updates. Thank you Arbi!

Arbi was fantastic! He has such a love for cats, he made ours feel safe and loved while we were gone over christmas for 5 days. He had to give one of our cats a pill each day and did it perfectly.

Arbi was fantastic to work with and really helped me out for the holidays. He even got my skittish girl to come out for some pets. She doesn’t come out from under the bed for anyone but me. My cats and I would be happy to have him back.

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.
Glendale cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $34.00. 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!
