I'm Gaby
Cat Sitting in Los Angeles, CA
My genuine love for cats means that when I step into your home, I'm not just a hired helper; I become a temporary, loving extension ... Hello! My name is Gaby, Iām a born and raised Angeleno š I currently work in mental health and enjoy connecting with people. I love to be in nature, travel, try yummy foods, read, attend music festivals and snuggling with my cats.
My genuine love for cats means that when I step into your home, I'm not just a hired helper; I become a temporary, loving extension of your family. My focus is always on your cat's emotional comfort and well-being. It's a privilege to be trusted with their care, and itās a commitment I take very seriously and with great warmth.
Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions!!

Learn More About Gaby
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
What I enjoy most is completely rooted in the fact that I'm a cat mom myself. I know that feelingāthe mix of excitement for a trip and that little knot of worry about your furry kid. Because I get it, the most rewarding part for me is the instant trust I establish. It's not just a job; it's caring for someone's cherished family member. I love sending those photo updates because I know exactly how much it means to see your baby happy and safe. For those few days, I get to be the loving stand-in, and thereās no better feeling than knowing Iāve helped another cat parent relax and enjoy their time away.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Mother to 2 fur babies who are my whole world, grey tabby (Mochi) whom I rescued from the streets during the covid19 pandemic and my white baby (Miso) was gifted to me by a family friend. Both have opposite personalities and make my days brighter. My mochi is super talkative, loves to be by my side when making dinner or just watching my favorite tv show, hates to be picked up but will snuggle with me when in the mood. My baby miso is the quiet and relaxed one, will nap all day and loves to be on his own, enjoys play-time and sleeping with me at night.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
Welcoming someone new to care for your cherished family member is a big decision, and I take that trust seriously. That's why we always begin with a free meet and greet right in your home. This is a relaxed time for me to bond with your cat and for you to walk me through their daily rhythm, favorite toys, and any special needs. Once we've established we're a purr-fect fit, I'll gather all the essentials, including your vet's details. While you're away, expect daily photo updates and little stories so you can relax knowing your beloved cat is happy, safe, and soaking up all the cuddles!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
My care philosophy centers on patience and respect. I'll never force an interaction, instead allowing your cat to approach me completely on their own terms. I like to gently get down to their level, so I'm not intimidating, and quietly create a safe, stress-free haven for them. This means making sure all their essentials are perfectly in placeāfresh food and water, a clean litter box, and familiar toysāalong with some comforting "safe spots" like a cozy cardboard box or a covered bed where they can happily retreat. We'll start building our bond with fun, interactive play from a distance, giving them space while letting their curiosity lead the way.

This was our second time booking Gaby and she continues to be absolutely wonderful! It's such a relief to have someone you can fully trust with your fur babies, and she never disappoints. Prince and Butler are always happy and well cared for when we return. Her attentiveness and communication are top notch, we always feel informed and at ease while we're away. If you're looking for a cat sitter you can count on again and again, look no further. Gaby is the best!

Gaby went above and beyond to make sure our cats were well taken care of and more importantly, build trust. She is a true cat lover and would recommend her to anyone. She met with us before we left to see where everything is for our cats. She texted us daily to give us updates and pictures.

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!
