I'm Daniella | Cat Sitting in Los Angeles, CA

I am Dani-By day, I am a full-time geriatric social worker working traditional hours (though we end a bit early on Friday afternoons around 3:30pm). I volunteered at a cat shelter on the East Coast for years before moving. I am also a cat mom to 3 special needs cats. The best way to describe my experience is tell you about the three: Eva: my first cat, the very first thing I got after moving out post college. She's a 13 year old queen. Eva got injection-related osteosarcoma (bone cancer) in 2017 and required an amputation, 5 rounds of IV, chemo, 1.5 years of maintenance chemo (administered by me at home). Eva was officially discharged from oncology in 2020 and has had no health problems since-not even a dental. Severus: my long-haired Maine Coon mix boy. Not the brightest crayon in the box, but he is a sweet lad. He was diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM-heart murmur) related to his breed. He takes a small heart pill every day-never showed symptoms and has 'no evidence of the disease' thanks to Atenolol. Gloria: my long-haired calico familiar. The biggest personalit...

Learn More About Daniella

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

Cat mom since 2011, shelter volunteer from 2015-2017. I have been cat sitting since 2018-a co worker needed someone to watch her insulin dependent kitty and I volunteered. I always volunteer to be the office pet sitter for co workers. Since moving to LA in 2021-I have one consistent co worker cat client in the Valley-she is a shy but satisfied customer. I have also watch my cat nieces in the past.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love meeting all the new babies and seeing their personalities come out as they warm up to the new stranger in the home. I love every cat I have ever met.

What is your favorite cat toy?

The best cat toy came from Daiso-it is a fabric snake on a stick-the head has bells inside and jangles. The other end also has a ribbon. My cats carry 'snake toy' around the house like a hunting trophy.

Daniella is truly an angel! My original sitter (my friend) fell through the day before I was leaving for a trip. I had never used a sitter service before and was so incredibly anxious about coordinating getting into my home and explaining where everything is for my cat without being able to meet Daniella beforehand. And of course the stress of having a stranger greet my cat without me! But Daniella is so understanding and accommodating and immediately eased my mind so that I could leave with full confidence my baby was in such good hands. She sent me the BEST photos and updates during every visit and even helped with an unexpected issue in my apartment that was totally inconvenient and not her mess to clean up. She really went above and beyond and I feel so relieved and overjoyed that I have found such a wonderful human to care for my cat in the future. Thank you so much Daniella!! Bagheera truly loves you!

Daniella did such an amazing job with my shy, reserved kitty! She got her purring every single visit, and went above and beyond to bond with her and make her feel comfortable and cared for while I was away. She sent pictures at each visit and provided such peace of mind with her updates. She's a true cat charmer and I would highly recommend her!

Daniella was amazing! Will definitely book again in the future. Our Megan loved spending time with her. Thanks for keeping us updated with lots of cute photos while we were away from our fur baby! Thanks so much for taking excellent care of her!

"Daniella loves each individual cat and it shows. She's reliable and communicates well, both with cat guardians and their cats. You can trust her when your cat needs to be checked on. You'll get pictures of your cat while you're on vacation and be able to relax with greater ease, knowing your cat is in good hands.

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 $42.00. 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.
