Cat Sitting in Oakland, CA

I have lived with and loved cats my whole life—I know the world is on THEIR terms and I respect that each cat has a unique personality with different preferences and needs. I use tricks like slow blinking to build trust, have experience administering medicines and drops, and am happy to conduct house-visits and stay overnight with your cat to make them feel safe and loved. I have experience with kittens and senior cats and am always patient and attentive to their uniqe need...

I have experience with kittens and senior cats and am always patient and attentive to their uniqe needs. I know that some cats need time to be comfortable so I will never force pets or cuddles on a cat who hasn’t invited me. I love playing with cats, helping to train them (it is possible with some persistence, especially if they are food motivated), and observing their special quirks. I count my lucky stars when they choose to love me back! Plus, I am careful about feeding instructions, keeping the litter box clean, caring for plants, and keeping the house tidy and secure.

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

I grew up with cats and have done home visits and overnight stays with cats for the better part of a decade. I can administer medicine and drops and will ensure cats have play and exercise.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love the company of cats and feeling their purrs of happiness. It is also incredibly fun pulling out the lasers or string toys to watch them hunt. And even if they don’t want to snuggle, I relish the opportunity to observe them and make sure they are properly fed and cared for.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

Link is a sweet calico cat who is a bit mischievous and very playful. Whenever I stop by, he lies in wait on a cabinet or shelf and jumps up on my shoulders and purrs in my ear. He is always adventuring by climbing to impossible places, like the top of a door (somehow) and likes to sneak attack you from up high. He is also notorious for knocking over items so you have to stay on your toes about putting things down. He never tires of playing and can run around chasing the laser for hours. I do appreciate that he also loves to snuggle and will sleep in a spoon next to me through most of the night. Although he is particular about food (no chicken, only fish) he does remind you when it’s 5:01 and you’re late to give him his dinner. He gets along with

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

This is number 1: I make sure all escape routes are blocked (that means coming in the main door very carefully and intentionally for those who like to dash out!). I make sure to clean the food and water bowls to avoid germ build-up. I clean the litter boxes regularly and make sure they are drinking enough water (a big issue with cats is dehydration). I'm also sure to double check the door is locked when I leave and everything is secured (no cups left out they can knock over!).

Kasey was an incredible cat sitter! Daily detailed updates and cute videos of her play sessions! She was kind and loving to our sweet kitties and successfully applied eye medicine and medication by mouth while we were gone for an entire week. 10/10

Kasey was absolutely phenomenal with our girl Blue! She provided very thorough updates and plenty of pictures and videos to reassure us while we were away. She handled Blue’s tummy ache with expertise. I felt 100% sure Kasey could handle anything that came up! Blue will be very happy to see Kasey again when we go on another trip :)

Kasey did a great job taking care of my kitties! One of my babies is sick and needed medication and she ensured that my kitty got it everyday and did a great job communicating! Also, I got tons of pictures while I was away! I was assured they were in great hands every step of the way.

Kasey is our go to sitter when we are away. She continues to be THE best in taking care of our two young guys. She sends the most elaborate updates that keep our minds at ease (videos and pics!). It's clear with these updates how comfortable they feel with her and we couldn't be more pleased.

Kasey was exceptional. My super shy cat was in love. our cat with the attitude lol. she did go out of her way because we had issues with the new Wi-Fi lock on our door and getting her access so we work something out while we were out out of country and she was able to come every day and take care of them for us. We look forward to booking her again in March but she doesn’t know that yet !!!

We feel so fortunate to have found Kasey! She is so responsive and warm and took THE best care of our two kittens while we were away for the holiday. Her check ins were constant and detailed and the sweet videos and pictures helped ease any anxiety we had leaving. We couldn't recommend her enough!

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.

Oakland cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $39.00. 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!
