Cat Sitting in Lemon Grove, CA

I’ve been "employed" by many cats over the years (currently there are six) and appreciate them for the family members that they are.

I’ve been "employed" by many cats over the years (currently there are six) and appreciate them for the family members that they are. I understand that having them around isn’t just petting them and thinking they’re awesome, it’s also ensuring that they have what’s needed for a great life; food, water, clean litter boxes, enrichment they enjoy, and people around them, including pet sitters, who have their best interest at heart and want to make them happy…at least, this is what my cats said to say ;)

When I meet a cat in their home, I let them come to me so they feel comfortable and if they don’t want a lot of affection and pets then I’ll just talk to them as I go through the visit.

Learn More About Christina

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I've had a great cat sitter for years now, and I want to make my clients as comfortable as I am when I'm away from my crew. I also like getting to know all the different personalities of the cats!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

The roster includes Chloe (chatty and demanding) Runt (short tail, tiny when I found him), Joey (he winked at me like Joey from Friends), Pete (Peter Cottontail-only a bump for a tail), Scout (as an orphan, checked around for his siblings to make it was safe), and Abby (independent and very fluffy).

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am usually available during holidays when I know it's busy for pet parents and they need good care.

What is your favorite cat toy?

A piece of string, an open cardboard box, the packaging inside the box, a fuzzy ball with a bell inside, a catnip banana.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

Sometimes it’s walking and speaking softly, sometimes it’s maintaining your calm demeanor but doing what needs to be done and not making eye contact. All on their terms!

Christina was amazing. Prior to our reservation, she came over and met my wife and I and out fur babies. She was very attentive, which we greatly appreciated. While gone, she was sure to keep us updated on our 3 cats and sent lots of pics. I can tell that our cats were in great hands and Christina made them feel loved.

Christina did a great job taking care of our kitties and made our trip abroad SO much less stressful! She's extremely communicative and followed all of our instructions perfectly. Our older cat has some special needs & medications, but it was no issue for Christina! Overall, great sitter!

I was so nervous leaving my two male rescues, one of which doesn't like to be social, but Christina was wonderful with them. She sent me updates and photos daily and it really eased my peace of mind. I highly recommend her. Thank you Christina!

Christina is freaking amazing! We have been lucky to have her watch after our 3 fur babies several times, and it's refreshing to know we can enjoy our time away and not have to worry about anything. I highly recommend her!

More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.
24–48 hours before the reservation start date: 50% refund. The sitter will earn 50% of their planned earnings.

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.

Lemon Grove 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 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!
