I’m currently working freelance in the film industry, so I’m able to pick up sitting in between gigs! I have over 10 years experience with social and shy cats, especially since I have one of each! Norah (6) is my shy girl, and Theo (9) is my social boy! I’m great with kittens as well, giving them the playful energy and attention they require. I’m kind of a stickler for following people’s directions, so you can be sure everything on your list will be done and done well!

Learn More About Courtney

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to know each cat’s unique personality. I sometimes imagine writing children’s books about all the funny cat personalities I’ve encountered! :)

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

Whatever is convenient and comfortable for the owner! I can come meet you and your cat(s) in person and go thru some of the tasks with you while I’m there so I know where everything is ahead of time. If you’re only available to do a meet n greet via FaceTime I can do that as well!

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

Since I have an anxious cat of my own, I’m very attuned to the needs of other shy and anxious cats. I’m very gentle and soft spoken, which is important in creating a safe atmosphere for shy cats. I won’t typically force any kind of interaction at first, I just make sure to have some of their favorite things (like toys or blankets) near me so that I can smell more familiar to them when they do approach me. Since consistency is especially important to shy cats, I like to make sure I’m following your task directions with precision so that I can do them as closely as I can to how you usually do them.

Courtney was above and beyond the best cat sitter I've had! She was so attentive and caring to my boy Batman and he warmed up to her so quickly! She was very on top of Batman's picky diet, followed my long list of requests for his feedings and sent me daily morning and evening check ins on his eating habits, play habits, any small concern she may have wanted me to know. she sent multiple photos througout the day just to keep me updated and I loved every photo she sent! I couldn't recommend Courtney more. She was so good to my little guy and I'm sure he misses her already! thank you Courtney!

Courtney is amazing. She was very communicative and my cats clearly loved her because they were far more relaxed than they usually are when I return home from being away. It was so nice to not have to worry about anything thanks to Courtney's thoughtful and attentive care.

Courtney was absolutely amazing with qp! From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. She’s incredibly reliable, attentive, and you can tell she genuinely loves and understands animals. The regular updates and adorable photos meant so much to me, they really put my mind at ease while I was away. When I came home, my cat was happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. I would 100% book her again in a heartbeat and highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter!

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 $34.00. 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!
