I’ve volunteered at a cat shelter for over two years, specializing in helping shy and timid cats come out of their shells with patience and gentle care. I’m also experienced in administering medication to cats who need it, so special-needs kitties are in great hands with me.
At home, I’m a proud cat mom to a tripaw (three-legged) rescue, so I truly understand and adore cats of all abilities and personalities. Your fur baby will get all the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away!

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

I’ve been passionate about cat care for years. I volunteered at a cat shelter for 2 years, gaining hands-on experience caring for cats of all temperaments, needs, and ages. Outside of the shelter, I took care of several cats with special needs including administering medication to cats that required it. Cats are a huge part of my life, I have a teipaw tuxedo cat and that experience made me an even more confident and attentive sitter.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I sure do! I’m a proud cat mom to a tripaw (three-legged) kitty. Having a special needs cat at home means I truly understand the extra love, patience, and attention cats deserve.

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

This is actually one of my specialties! At the shelter, I worked extensively with shy and fearful cats. My approach is always to let the cat set the pace, no forcing interaction, just quiet presence, soft voices, and gentle patience. I’ve seen the most timid cats slowly open up, and there’s nothing more rewarding than earning a nervous kitty’s trust.

Shana was excellent, she took extra special care of the kitties and made sure they had plenty of attention, play, and love. She even offered to water my plants! I got plenty of high quality pics/videos of the check-ins. I scheduled for two weeks and Shana was incredibly consistent - will absolutely be booking again in the future, the kitties already miss her!

Shaghayegh was absolutely wonderful with my two kitties! She was caring, attentive, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It was thw first time I had to leave my furbabies for such a long time period. I really appreciated the regular updates, adorable pictures, and little videos, it was so nice to see that my cats were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She clearly treated them with lots of love and attention. I highly recommend Shaghayegh to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and caring cat sitter. I will definitely be booking her again! ❤️🐾

Shana was amazing and made sure my cat was taken care for. She went in knowing what needed to be done sometimes without me having to ask. Shana really was very sweet and kept me updated on how my cat was doing by sending me photos and videos of her while I was away.

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 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!
