Cat Sitting in Los Angeles, CA

Hi! I love cats. All of them! I volunteer in cat rescue which includes pulling cats from shelters and finding homes, fostering, volunteering events for rescues I believe in, and doing street rescue and TNR. Additionally, I am a volunteer District Leader for the Humane Society. I have raised a child as a single mom in LA, and worked at a prestigious production company here for over 12 years. I have recently left to pursue writing so I have plenty of time to snuggle with your cats.

I know quite a bit about rescue medicine and have even fostered bottle babies. I love em all from seniors to kittens! I’m happy to learn your cat’s medical protocol on my own time, in order to provide them a safe and happy experience. I will treat your cat like my own, and take a lot of pride and satisfaction...

I’m happy to learn your cat’s medical protocol on my own time, in order to provide them a safe and happy experience. I will treat your cat like my own, and take a lot of pride and satisfaction knowing my clients feel happy and relieved leaving their most valued possession in my care. My cat sitting style is I let your cat dictate what we do: they wanna play all visit? I’m down! Lay on the floor and cuddle? Sign me up! Feel more comfortable going slow until I gain their trust? I’ll never force a connection just to prove I’m good with cats. They are the boss. Their happiness is my #1 priority. I’m just here to give em what they want! Nothing makes me happier. I respect, adore, and appreciate each cat’s uniqueness. There’s no one size fits all approach to cat sitting. Lastly, I hope to put smiles on your faces by sending you many pics, videos, updates and funny anecdotes of your babes while you are away!

Many of my regulars become like family, and I feel fortunate I get to hang out with so many amazing cats. Each one holds a special place in my heart, and I love getting to see so many over and over again!

Bella loved Amy! And we super appreciated all that Amy did for Bella while we were away for over a week. Amy administered fluids and transdermal meds without a problem. She sent lots of videos and updates our way so we were always at ease knowing Bella is in good hands. And she cleaned up after Bella so that we got home to a clean place. Thank you again!

As usual, Amy was just the best. She sits quite a bit for us, but one of our elderly kitties is a little sick right now, and I felt so at ease having her here giving meds, loving them and taking care of them- it makes such a difference !! She sends multiple videos and pictures and when we got home the boys were so happy and we could tell that they were well cared for. Amy is just the best!!!

Amy was such an excellent pet sitter, and we truly appreciated the wonderful care she provided for our cat, Mimi. She was professional, dependable, attentive, and an excellent communicator throughout our time away. She took initiative when needed and made sure all of Mimi's daily needs were taken care of—from feeding and cleaning the litter box to administering her medications. We always felt informed and confident that Mimi was in great hands. Beyond being incredibly reliable, Amy has a sharp sense of humor and a genuine love for cats that put us at ease. We loved that she affectionately nicknamed Mimi "Meemers" despite Mimi's spiciness. She was not at all intimidated by Mimi's fierceness and grouchiness. On the contrary, Amy was always in charge and I felt that Mimi respected that. Like "oh there's another alpha female here. Mmm'kay." It's those personal touches that make all the difference ^_^. We're so grateful for the care Amy gave Mimi and wouldn't hesitate to trust her with her again. We highly recommend Amy to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you for taking care of Meemers Amy! We are so happy we found you!

Amy was a pleasure to work with, and will definitely be our first choice for our cat sitting needs in the future. As people who had never used a cat sitter, we were a bit nervous to try it, but Amy made it a very comfortable and positive experience. She left the apartment in such a nice state, sent us updates on our kitties, and even got our super shy kitten out and playing. You can tell she knows what she’s doing! 10/10 Ty Amy!

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 $36.00. 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!
