Learn More About Michaela

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

As a cat-parent who travels frequently for work and leisure, I know that it can be stressful to leave your baby. It makes me happy to know that I can help others have a stress free time away from home, while meeting and spending time with new kitty-friends.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My one-eyed ginger shorthair, Slinky! I’ve had him since he was 6 weeks old and a very scared, sickly foster. We went through countless surgeries before I decided I just couldn’t part with this one of a kind boy.

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

Think carefully about your cat(s)’s personality and what they need. Some cats might do better with just a short amount of time each day, some might prefer overnights. I’m a firm believer that very social cats that are used to adventuring may even do best in boarding facilities with open play sessions. Communicate these personality traits with sitters and on your profile so they can best help you to care for your pet.

Michaela was great! One of our girls can be a little prissy, and Michaela handled her no problem. She provided consistent updates and was very communicative so at no point did I worry about my fur babies. Highly recommend!

Michaela was amazing!! Both of my cats warmed up to her immediately - including my incredibly shy and nervous girl! She sent a ton of pictures and videos with updates, which made me feel very comfortable with her being in my home and confident that my cats were in great care. I highly recommend Michaela, and I'll be hiring her again!

Michaela is an excellent choice for a cat sitter. She has extensive experience fostering cats and kittens with multiple health and behavioral issues, so she is prepared for just about anything! She is a huge animal lover and is very attentive to their needs, both physical and emotional. Michaela is incredibly compassionate and dedicated. She cares for all animals as she would her own, is a joy to be around, and is a wonderful choice for a cat sitter.

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 $33.00. 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.
