Learn More About Emma

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

My favorite part of cat sitting is discovering the unique quirks of each cat. Every cat is different, and it's so rewarding when they feel comfortable enough with you to be their (often somewhat strange) selves.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am often available during holidays, and I list my availability as far in advance as I can. If you're interested in a particular holiday, feel free to ask!

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

When I'm cat sitting for a nervous cat, I'll make sure to talk to them throughout the visit so that they can acclimate to my voice and feel confident that I'm not trying to surprise them. If they're comfortable enough to be in the same room as me, I'll sit on the floor and initiate playtime from a distance. Most importantly, I don't rush them - patience and following their lead is essential. Nothing touches my heart more than a shy cat coming over to me for the first time!

Emma was incredible! She exceeded all of our expectations. Every update was detailed, thoughtful, and personable. She was kind and patient with our two shy boys. She is very detailed oriented and preempted all of our concerns. We highly recommend Emma and we will be reserving her for all of our future cat sitting needs.

My name is Rory and I was so fortunate to have Emma be my caretaker. I can be very shy and mostly hide under the bed. So each day after Emma put out fresh water and food and cleaned my litter box, she sat down across the room and we had a great chat. Every day she also sent my mom an incredibly detailed report and the most adorable photos and videos of me (if I do say so myself!). By the end of the week, I would wait for Emma on the couch because I trusted her and was excited to see her. Tell your mom to pick Emma! You’ll love her!

Emma is an amazing sitter for my Mr. Biscuits. Her updates are so great - detailed and thorough, with cute pics and videos. My cat adores her - she gets all the purrs, playtime and cuddles he gives me. She really gets him and enjoys spending time with him. The sense of comfort and joy I feel when Emma sits for me is priceless.

Emma has watched Tycho several times now and she is consistently a dream cat sitter. I feel at ease when I'm away because I know my cat is being very well taken care of. Emma provides detailed updates, gets my cat to play, and sends amazing pics/vids of Tycho. My cat lurves her and I think she is a great cat sitter and would highly recommend her.

Emma is thoroughly conscientious and devoted to her charges. This was the first time I left the cats alone for more than one night. They told me when I got home that Emma was careful and considerate and, please, if I did this again to ask Emma to come back.

This was my first experience with a cat sitter and Meowtel, and I am soo impressed with Emma. I highly recommend her and would book her services again. Her updates were detailed and had plenty of pictures and videos. But the most important part, my cats absolutely looooved her, even my very shy cat warmed up to her very quickly. With her amazing updates, and the fact that my cats fell in love with her very quickly, I knew my cats were in great hands and I was able to enjoy my trip worry-free.

This is the second time I booked Emma. I always know my cat is in great hands with Emma. The pictures and videos I get back are amazing, the updates are relevant and amusing, and my cat doesn't panic barf while I am away. Tycho enjoys her company which is important and makes me feel less anxious while I'm away. 10/10 will absolutely book her in the future.

This was Emma’s and my first time working together and it couldn’t have gone better. First, we had a meet & greet that left me feeling really comfortable and assured. She asked all the right questions and had a friendly demeanor. Her visit with Mr. Biscuits went as expected. She messaged me on the app when she arrived, and sent a very thorough update message with pics and videos when the visit was over. I can’t overstate how much her reliability gave me comfort. 10/10 will reserve Emma again!

Another fantastic experience with Emma! She is our favorite and is so thoughtful and helpful with our cats. We had an annoying litter box situation that she was a trooper about troubleshooting, and she always provides such great updates. The only sitter our second shy cat will ever come out to greet!

Emma was an incredible cat sitter and I felt good about the choice before I even left for my trip. Tycho (who can sometimes be picky) felt comfortable with her immediately. She sent detailed updates on Tycho and maybe the best pictures and videos I've ever received from a cat sitter. I really enjoyed reading the updates and even tho I missed him terribly it was a relief knowing he was in good hands. 10/10 would recommend

Emma is our favorite cat sitter and we always reach out to her when we travel. She gives great updates about our two cats, and goes above and beyond to make sure they are taken care of. She is great about altering us to any particular behaviors or situations we should be aware of (running low on food, or a cat throwing up) and is so proactive about it all. She is also the ONLY sitter our one shy cat will come out for.

Our second time having Emma take care of our cats went just as well as the first! They both remembered Emma from her first visit and were happy to see her. She provided great video and photo updates, giving us a chance to see that they were behaving like their usual selves every time she visited. All food, water and cleanliness needs were taken care of just as we asked.

Emma went above and beyond as a sitter for my cat Krew. She made sure to ask all the appropriate questions and came in person to meet me and Krew ahead of my bookings. She was great with communication and letting me know when she’d be arriving or had questions. She left very thoughtful/detailed updates after her visit. I would highly recommend her with your cats!

Emma was absolutely wonderful! We were gone for almost two weeks and Emma was so thoughtful and thorough in the care of our two cats. She provided detailed updates, great photos and videos, and was super communicative and responsive about everything. In our initial meet and greet, she asked great questions, some of which I hadn't thought about, that really spoke to her experience and thoughtfulness. She went above and beyond by alerting us that we needed to order some extra cat food and was kind enough to unpack the package we had delivered to our door. We were nervous to leave our cats for so long, but there was never any doubt in our minds that Emma was taking excellent care of them. She was also really lovely about helping us with some plant watering and other out of town tasks. I highly recommend Emma and will absolutely be booking her for our future cat sitting visits!

Emma was super friendly during the meet and greet and asked a lot of questions that showed she was invested in my cat. I was having a busy weekend and just needed someone to check in on my cat so he wouldn't be bored, and Emma was great about sending pictures of him being playful and affectionate (and he's usually not affectionate with strangers!).

Emma is absolutely exceptional! Received well detailed and entertaining updates consistently daily, along with photos and videos. She followed all directions exactly, and went above and beyond at every visit. She is kind, thoughtful, responsible, and clearly adores all cats as if they're her own. I cannot express enough how nice it was to have peace of mind while traveling abroad. I am also fairly certain that my cat Purrito would prefer to trade me in for Emma permanently!

Featured Cat Sitters Near Los Angeles, CA

Frequently Asked Questions

Los Angeles cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $36.00. 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.
