Cat Sitting in Los Angeles, CA

I have always had a love for cats since I was a kid. Their individuality, their grace, and the memes! I am fascinated by their adorable and quirky behavior.

As a cat sitter, I take care of cats with love and attention. I understand that each cat is unique and has their own personality and needs. I make sure to follow the care instructions provided by their pawrents and pay close attention to their behavior to ensure they are happy and comfortable while in my care...
I have always had a love for cats since I was a kid. Their individuality, their grace, and the memes! I am fascinated by their adorable and quirky behavior.

As a cat sitter, I take care of cats with love and attention. I understand that each cat is unique and has their own personality and needs. I make sure to follow the care instructions provided by their pawrents and pay close attention to their behavior to ensure they are happy and comfortable while in my care. I am patient and gentle with all cats, and I enjoy spending time with them.

I am a responsible and reliable cat sitter, and I genuinely want pawrents to feel at ease knowing their kitty is in good hands while they’re away. Cats deserve the same love and care that we give to our human loved ones, and I am committed to giving them the best care possible. So, if you need a cat sitter, don't hesitate to message me!

In my free time, I like to read books, drink matcha lattes, and hang out with my friends. I also make complimentary regal pet portraits for my clients so if you’re interested please let me know!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Cat sitting has unexpectedly become a creative outlet for me. I’m not an English major or a photographer, but I genuinely enjoy writing visit summaries and taking cute photos of the kitties. Even during shorter visits, the kitties somehow always give me moments worth sharing. It’s a great feeling when I manage to get a fun shot, and even more so when pawrents tell me the updates bring them peace of mind or that the descriptions sound just like their cat. And of course, I get to hang out with cats!! That’s a given, and the best part.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

Spending the holidays with two senior cats was such a memorable experience for me. With my family overseas, I'm used to the solo holiday routine. So it was a nice change of pace to be with the little ones. One of the cats was a bit reserved at first, but I got to see her gradually warm up and bond with me. The other cat was a laid-back buddy who always kept my feet warm at night. I loved relaxing with them on the sofa at the end of the day, sipping hot tea while we enjoyed some classical music and holiday-themed cat TV.

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

I observe their body language and respect their boundaries. Cats are sensitive souls so I aim to minimize any potential stress. I make a conscious effort to be unobtrusive as I move about. I prefer to sit on the floor to avoid looming over them. I refrain from approaching shy cats directly. I've found that giving them space and looking away can be helpful. The rule of thumb: let the cats come to you in their own time. My clients have also told me that I have a calm energy.

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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
