I'm Julio
Cat Sitting in Los Angeles, CA
I believe patience is key with cats, and I always let them set the pace, giving them the space they need to feel safe and comfortable... I’m a dedicated cat dad with over 15 years of experience caring for cats. I currently have a 12-year-old senior and a 2-year-old, so I’m very familiar with caring for cats of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. I’m experienced in introducing cats, administering medications, and caring for both confident and shy kitties.
I believe patience is key with cats, and I always let them set the pace, giving them the space they need to feel safe and comfortable. I’ve also fostered cats and have extensive cat-sitting experience, so I understand how important routines, environment, and calm companionship are while you’re away. During visits, I focus on keeping things calm and stress-free through attentive care, playtime, and companionship tailored to each cat’s personality.
What sets me apart is that I treat every cat as if they were my own, paying close attention to their unique personality and preferences. My goal is to make sure your cat feels relaxed, cared for, and loved until you return home!

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I’ve been caring for cats for over 15 years, starting with my own cats and gradually expanding to helping friends, family, and neighbors when they traveled. I’ve also been using Meowtel myself for a few years whenever I travel, so I know exactly what it’s like to be on the other side.
Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?
One of my favorite cat reservations was one of my first experiences with Meowtel. The meet and greet went great and they asked plenty of questions. During the reservation our sitter arrived each day at the same time, and provided pictures of the cats when they first arrived, as well as videos and pics of them playing with the cats. They also provided before and after pics of the foods and water bowls, and the litter box. Their communication was excellent and their attention to detail was very much appreciated!
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
Safety is my top priority. I’m always careful with doors and windows to make sure cats can’t get out. I keep an eye out for anything that seems off in the home or with the cat’s behavior. If a cat isn’t eating or seems sick, I let the owner know right away and will contact the vet if needed. I treat every home and every cat like they’re my own.

Julio is a phenomenal sitter. He immediately put us at ease at our meet and greet and asked great questions. his experience with senior cats really stood out. he made sure all 3 of our cats were well taken care of, he kept them on their regular schedule with the times he visited, he played with them, gave them treats and made sure their overall mood was okay before leaving each visit. his updates were timely and thorough even when I couldn’t respond immediately, and our cats (that have separatation anxiety) were in much better spirits when we returned home than with other sitters we have used. Julio is now our go-to and I strongly encourage others to work with him.

Julio is an excellent and very trustworthy cat sitter. He has watched my cat many times and I always know that Tom is in the best hands and getting a lot of love and attention. Tom can be picky about who he shows affection to but after their first meeting tom was sitting in his lap and relaxing.

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 $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 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 Meet & Greet!
