Jazz's Reviews
Kenyetta
I needed a cat sitter ASAP due to a family emergency and found Jazz on the Meowtel site. I read her bio, was impressed and contacted her. Her response time was immediate so we set up a meeting date/time. Jazz is very friendly, genuine, personable and knowledgeable. I felt at ease with her right away! She took notes and I felt she would be a great fit for my shy and at times unsociable fur baby Midnite. Jazz followed all instructions and texted me with in depth updates, or if she had any questions. The photos with my kitty Midnite were was so helpful in relieving my anxiety with leaving Midnite for two weeks. She even made incredible progress with Midnite with receiving a few head butts and allowing Jazz to scratch her chin after some treat/social sessions. That is a big step for my black ball of fluff and I appreciate Jazz 's patience with Midnite and allowing her space and comfort while attempting to gain her trust. Jazz made sure the house remained clean and tidy, scooping litter and cleaning up a few accidents, with daily maintenance of food and water bowls. I am very pleased with Jazz and she made the experience wonderful, less stress inducing while knowing my kitty was being so lovingly taken care of by her.. I will definitely be using Jazz again for future catsitting dates.

My cats absolutely love catching up with Jazz every time she visits and I feel so relieved that I can trust her with my babies. She is incredibly thoughtful and intentional, often sharing observations about my cats that I had never noticed before. Jazz has a special gift with cats and my shy cat that normally hides instantly warmed up to her. Jazz has this magical aura that makes cats open up immediately - it’s incredible! She always writes the most detailed recaps and sends beautiful pictures of my cats after every visit. I’d recommend her to anyone!

I am so impressed with the level of care and attention my cat received! Jazz went above and beyond and truly understood my cat's needs. She kept me updated with adorable photos and messages, which reassured me that my kitty was in great hands.

Jazz was amazing! I was most concerned about my cats receiving their medication while I was gone but Jazz was a total professional and up to the task. She provided updates and photos daily and really cared about my cats’ wellbeing. I cannot recommend her enough! Please consider Jazz for your pet sitting needs 💞

Frequently Asked Questions
Berkeley cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $38.00. 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.
