I'm Valerie | Cat Sitting in La Verne, CA

Hi, I’m Val 🦋 I am a 2020 UC Riverside business graduate currently residing in the city of La Verne and working out of Pomona. When my schedule permits, I have the pleasure of volunteering with a feline specific nonprofit rescue based out of Chino on the weekends. Coming from a family of animal lovers, I have had the privilege to experience life always having a best friend by my side. I now reside with my two rescue babies; 2 yr old husky mix (Gia) and 4 yr old russian blue (Shia)….. If you’re wondering, yes they do get along, in fact, the dog thinks she’s part cat and copies her! Val's experience: I have over 2 years of formal pet sitting experience (through another platform). Through this, I have pet sat over 100 dogs and cats of varying breed, age and temperament. While my background on paper may reside mostly in the corporate world, I aspire to maintain this part time endeavor for as long as possible! When Val is with ...

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

The experience is ever developing and never fails to bring a smile to my face! I have over 2 years of formal pet sitting experience.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have a 4 yr old russian blue kitty who I adopted in 2020. Her name is Shia, after The Transformers actor Shia LaBeouf 🤖

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

Communication, comfortability and trust are all crucial to maintaining healthy and successful business relations. Not only are you trusting me with your furbaby, but you are also allowing me into your most sacred and private space - your home. I myself am diligent and intentional with whoever enters my home and cares for my pets. So, please don't hesitate to ask any and all questions, especially if you are new to the pet sitting space.

Valerie is full of great energy and very passionate about taking care of kitties! We knew right away that she would be trustworthy and a great sitter. She sends the cutest photos and had my cat purring like a baby. Luna and I recommend Val for your pet sitting needs!

This was my first time using Meowtel and Val was amazing! In the past, my partner and I have asked friends and family to cat-sit and it’s been fine but after a professional experience with Valerie, we might not go back! Valerie gave us an update every day and sent perfect photos and even a video of our sweet cats! Our youngest cat Simon is usually so shy, but she was able to charm him on the first day! We got them water bowls on a whim before we left, not expecting them to drink because they never use their water fountains, but Val found out how they like their water and they’ve stared drinking. We were able to rest easy on our trip, while looking forward to Valerie’s update every day haha. I highly recommend Valerie for your next cat sitter!!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $43.00. 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.
