I grew up with rescue pets of all kinds, and currently live with my senior baby (oxymoron?): a fluffy loaf of a calico cat named Poshey.

I’m Amanda, a San Diego native and major cat lover currently residing in the La Mesa village area. I grew up with rescue pets of all kinds, and currently live with my senior baby (oxymoron?): a fluffy loaf of a calico cat named Poshey. I’ve lived with Posh for 13 years now and she is my best friend 🤍 Being in the presence of animals, especially cats, is so therapeutic for me, and I’d love to spend some time with yours if they need an extra pal. Thanks to my amazing clients, their generosity, and kind reviews, I’ve been fortunate enough to transition into petsitting as my full-time job – so my schedule is pretty flexible, and I will try my best to accomodate your specific needs. I know that kitties are family, and I’ll always honor them as such!

Our pet sitting reservation with Amanda went very well! My Fiancée and I were taking a trip to Europe for a decent amount of time. I have a cat with a few health ailments that needs daily medication and daily bladder expressions and Amanda was totally up for the challenge. She was very eager to learn how express a cats bladder which really put my mind at ease knowing someone was going to take the time and care to do something properly to make my cat comfortable while we were away. We also received daily pictures of both of our cats which was very nice. All in all I would very much recommend Amanda for your pet sitting needs and would definitely request her again.

Amanda was wonderful with our super-shy cat. She was patient with him, and communicative with us. It was a great relief knowing our cat had a caring visitor each day while we were gone.

Amanda was an amazing pet sitter for our cat, Lilly! Lilly is an extremely social cat and loves to be around people and I was nervous about leaving her for so many days, but Amanda came to the house twice a day every day around the same time and made sure Lilly got all of her playtime, food, water and medication. In addition to that, she gave thorough updates each visit with lots of pictures which really eased my separation anxiety. She is an absolute cat lover and understands their behavior and how to handle them. We will definitely want to hire Amanda again and you should too :)

Amanda is wonderful! She was professional during the meet and greet and responds very promptly to texts. Our trip was unexpectedly extended and she was able to accommodate us with very short notice. She was more than willing to put out our garbage bins while we were away. One of our cats is very shy and doesn’t warm up easily to people but she seems to love Amanda! I would HIGHLY recommend Amanda for anyone looking for a cat 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.

La Mesa cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $33.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
