I'm Erin | Cat Sitting in Long Beach, CA

Hi! I'm Erin (they/them). I have loved cats since the day I was born 😸 I grew up with three cats of my own and have always felt a deep connection with them (sometimes more than people). I live with two sweet kitties named Punchy and Ripley. I work to give them good lives! My cat sitting career began when I was 11, when my mom's coworker asked me to give his kitties extra love while he was away. Since then I have been asked to cat sit by teachers, co-workers, and supervisors because am I known for both loving cats and being responsible and reliable. I know how hard it can be to leave your fur baby with a stranger, so I will make sure to keep you updated with photos and a detailed status report at every visit! I have cared for elderly and disabled kitties that required ear drops, eye drops, oral medications, insulin injection...

Learn More About Erin

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to know every kitty's unique personality! They're all such individuals and it's so much fun to see them get comfortable with me.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I always check outside doors as I'm coming and going to make sure kitties don't escape and will alert you ASAP of any safety concerns I notice!

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

I let them set the pace of our interactions. I like to let the kitty know that I'm there and offer a sniff, but if the kitty doesn't want to hang out I will sit nearby and let the kitty come to me.

While we were in Australia on vacation, the unthinkable happened and we lost one of our beloved pets. Erin went way above and beyond for us and was instrumental in helping us. She spent so much of her time to help us and comfort us. I cannot tell you how grateful we are that we have Erin because no one else would have been as helpful. Erin is, by far, the best choice for our family. All of our pets love her!!! They all come out to greet her… and they don’t just do that for anyone. Animsls know good people… and Erin is just that!!! We are eternally grateful to her!

This was my first time hiring a cat sitter for my very emotionally attached senior cat with digestive issues and I was a bit nervous! Erin was wonderful. They gave daily updates with pictures and were extremely professional and friendly. I felt great knowing that my guy was being cared for and cuddled while I was gone. Would highly recommend booking with Erin!

Erin came in the clutch! We had reservations with a cat hotel that got cancelled last minute so Erin was our savior! She did an amazing job looking after our cats and making sure they were properly fed and had playtime. She kept us updated with the cutest photos and gave use a detailed breakdown of her visits. She made our wedding/vacation stress free and we really appreciate her for everything! We will definitely look to book Erin again next time we go on vacation! Thanks again Erin, you’re AMAZING!

Another wonderful weekend of visits with Erin. As usual, Erin provided thorough updates, amazing photos and set our minds at ease. We couldn’t ask for a better caregiver for our cats while we’re away!

Frequently Asked Questions

Long Beach cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $33.00. 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.
