I'm Uriel
Cat Sitting in Los Angeles, CA
There’s this misco... Ever since I was 10 years old, I have been a cat parent or fostered kittens. My family and I have taken care of 6 family cats during my lifetime and I personally fostered countless kittens and feral cats. I have two cats, Lincoln and Bonsai, who I adopted and raised from a stray kittens to human loving pets. I know how to administer medicine and bottle fed kittens from raising my two boys.
There’s this misconception that cats are cold and distant. I beg to differ. I believe cats process stimuli and their environment much differently than dogs and, when cared well, they can be just as warm and friendly as their canine counterparts. My two cats are shining example since they have been known to welcome human visitors and extremely cuddly, because I want to provide them and any cat a safe haven for them to flourish.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have two cats who I adopted when they were only 2 months old. Their names are Lincoln and Bonsai.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
The best cat sitter are the ones who can sense and respect different cat personalities. Some cats are bold and curious and will approach you right off the bat. Some cats are afraid and will hide from you. If a cat is afraid, a good cat sitter will respect their boundaries and let a cat approach them in their own pace. After all, a cat sitter’s primary role is to make sure a cat feels safe and taken care of, not demand hugs.
Are you usually available during holidays?
I am available to work holidays if in town. I know getting an automatic feeder is not within everyone’s budget and many cats require daily medicine. These can limit an owner’s availability to go out on vacation. That’s why I’m more than happy to take care of a person’s cat if needed.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I give cats time and space to become comfortable with me. It’s my simple, yet often successful, approach to any timid and shy cats. It’s also the best way to show respect both to the cat and owner.

Uriel was wonderful with Miso! She’s still pretty shy with new people, and he was very patient and respectful of her space while making sure she had everything she needed. He sent me detailed updates and photos after his visit, refreshed her food and water, cleaned her litter box, and even found a creative way to give her a treat when she wouldn’t come out of hiding. I really appreciated how attentive and thoughtful he was, it gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely book Uriel again!

This is my Second Time Booking with Uriel and I am still as impressed as the first time! My shy Cat who does not enjoy meeting new people tends to hide until the coast Is clear but he was able to get her to trust him and she comes out now during visits! I am so grateful for that because I know how scared she can be! Uriel has always been nothing but amazing, follows all directions and goes the extra mile! thank you again Uriel!

Uriel was terrific! My enormous tuxedo is a big personality and Uriel took care of him with patience and great care. He got him to sit still for grooming longer than I ever have! If you need a responsible, loving sitter the purrs in the videos he sent me say he's your guy.

Uriel was great! He took so much initiative - even tidying up a bit and leaving me a little dessert as a sweet welcome home treat after a holiday away! He will make your cat feel so loved.

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.
Los Angeles cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $37.00. 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!
