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

HI!! Welcome to my Sitter Page. I was a Vet Tech for over 8 years and worked with so many different species. I had a career change during the pandemic and am currently pursuing my Master's Degree in Traditional East Asian Medicine (Acupunture + Herbs). I hope to be able to bring this powerful healing modality to my community and later on collaborate with Veterinary clinics to provide relief for pets as well. Originally from Miami, FL - I have been living in Los Angeles for 3 years. In the past, I worked in Primary Care and Emergency Medicine Animal Clinics. I've also been an intern & employee of a Rehabilitation Center for Owl Monkeys in South Florida. I even participated in Research & Conservation at Miami Zoo. I guess you can say I know my way around taking care of all kinds of species. While I was a Vet Tech, I also worked with a Pet Sitting/Dog Walking company where the kitties were my specialty. Clients would consistently request me as lead pet sitter when booking services for their pets (but let's be real, they're family members ☺️). My knowledge about animals, their health, and well-being are also a plus, especially when dealing with special needs pets or seniors. Rest assured that if your cat needs medications to be administered, I can do it all. I also know some tips & tricks to help them take their medication - just in case they've already caught on and have becom...

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

I have been a cat sitter for about 10 years while also working as a Veterinary Technician. While I no longer work as a Veterinary Technician, I still offer cat sitting services as I truly enjoy taking care of animals.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Being able to to see each cat's personality come out as the reservation continues. I love spending time with each kitty, since I don't have one of my own at the moment. It gives me that cute pet time we all need in our lives.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Be patient and trust your intuition when it comes to choosing a cat sitter for your beloved pet. If you have to go through several meet-and-greets to find the sitter you're comfortable with, that's perfectly okay. AND don't be afraid to ask all the questions that come to mind :)

Denise did an amazing job with our gremlin, handling her medication needs with ease and stealing her heart with punctual meals. A lot of people claim to be "cat whisperers," but she's the real deal.

Denise took incredible care of Coco! She was a pro at administering meds transdermally and over food, and kept Coco comfortable and happy – they became great friends over the course of my trip :) She went above and beyond in delivering detailed updates too, can’t recommend her highly enough!

Denise was an amazing cat sitter! At our meet and greet my cats ran right up to her as she walked in the door and were immediately super friendly with her. Normally they take a few minutes to warm up to new people. She was very communicative and sent great daily updates. I felt comfortable and confident with her watching our cats. I highly recommend Denise to anyone!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations.

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 $39.00. 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.
