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

Hi! My name is Ione Dellos, and cats are the sweetest and most compassionate animals to me, which is why I love caring for them. What sets me apart from other sitters is that I will always make sure their litter box is clean, food is full, and water is full and clean. If ...

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

I have been cat sitting since I was fifteen, and have watched so many delightful little furballs. Cats are an absolute joy in my life, and I simply love being in their presence. I always try to make sure every cat feels loved and taken care of when their owners are gone, and I always make sure to give them extra special care and attention. I also used to volunteer at my local shelter to keep the kitties with cat AIDS company, since no one wanted to visit them really.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a cat named Beynish, who is orange and slightly evil, but still such a sweetie pie. I used to live with a kitty named Miso for around two years, and she was the largest tuxedo cat I have ever seen. She would frequently walk on my keyboard while I was trying to write school essays, and would often let me hold her like a teddy bear while I went to sleep. She now lives my former roommate who sends me Miso photos regularly.

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

With cats that are particularly timid or anxious, patience is the most important thing. My mom has a cat named Shadow that is very shy, and it took me a long time to earn her trust, but once I did, she would take naps with me after school and let me give her lots of pets. I take this same approach with nervous cats. You can never rush a cat into trusting you, it is something you have to earn. I give anxious cats lots of space, always stay low to the ground to lower my threat profile, turn away from them to make them feel less intimidated, and let them come to me when they are ready.

There are few people that I trust my cat with, and Ione is one of those folks. They have cared for my cat as if she were their own and always provide me with a sense of security when they cat-sit. They always ensure that my cat is given lots of attention, love, and care while I am away. Cats naturally gravitate towards and trust Ione, making them someone perfectly fit for cat-sitting anyone's cat.

Ione is a gentle and kind person that is the perfect balance of attentive and chill. They have a great relationship with my cat and connected immediately. I have always felt my cat was safe and loved under Ione’s watch, and their communication skills are always flawless!

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $43.00. 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.
