I'm Isa | Cat Sitting in Oakland, CA

Hi, I’m Isa! I’m an experienced cat mom of two cats, Salem and Pluto. Salem sparked my love of cats, with his sassy and high energy personality, I couldn’t help but fall in love! Ever since him, I have been open to all the little kittens and cats in my neighborhood or when I’m out and about. He is what led me to adopt Pluto, my little daredevil. The special bond with a cat and their owner is out of this world, Salem has helped me with some of my toughest moments in life. I remember coming home after my mom had passed and it was as if my cat had knew what had happened, he greeted me with loud meows and instantly laid on my chest when I laid down. Which is why I will ensure your little furry friend is cared for and attended to. Our animals are more than pets, they are an extension of our family. I’ve had dogs, cats, fish, and birds. My wide range of animals that I’ve cared for led me to do much research and familiarity with how to properly tend to all different kinds of animals. I’m especially de...

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

The cats of course. Especially the ones I have done repeats for, it allows me to build a bond with the littles ones. It’s awesome to be able to play and cuddle with the little ones!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Salem and Pluto! My little lover boys. They are both black cats and have very loud personalities haha!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Please take meet and greets very serious! Introducing your little one while you are there facilitates a more easier environment so that the sitter and your little one can start on a good foot! Plus it aids with directions and also seeing if the sitter is a good fit.

Isa took great care of our kitties! They were happy when we got back home and I appreciated the communications, pictures, and videos each day.

Isa is prompt, courteous, and clearly a pro at this. She shows attention to detail and great care. Isa also accommodated my tight schedule just before I left for a trip - we could rest easier knowing our kitties were in good hands!

Isa was great with my kinda shy cat. He’s curious, but a little scared. She took the time to meet us before I went out of town and I think that was helpful for my cat. Isa sent pictures and videos from her check ins. She even took the extra step of sweeping up litter and cardboard cast off from my cat’s favorite scratch board.

Frequently Asked Questions

Oakland cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $42.00. 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.
