Learn More About Anna

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! My sweet kitties are Harley (grey) and Baxter (orange). Harley came into my life first at 6 1/2 months old, almost 14 years ago. He was a little anxious and not very playful for a long time until 6 years ago, when Baxter joined our family and changed everything. Baxter is about 10 now and came from a hoarding situation with many other cats. Thanks to Baxter’s insistence on being friends, a whole new side of Harley’s personality emerged. They play together every day and are both the sweetest, most affectionate cats. I feel incredibly lucky to share my life with them. Being a cat parent to these two is a big reason why I love caring for other cats too!

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

I know how personal it feels to leave your cat in the care of someone else. It’s a sensitive thing. But when you know what you’re looking for, and you find a sitter who genuinely loves cats, is patient, and believes in meeting your cat where they are, it could allow for the makings of a really great fit. And I also fully support cat parents who decide another option is better. This is about your needs just as much as your cat’s. At the end of the day, it’s about building a relationship grounded in trust and care, so everyone feels comfortable and safe.

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

First off, I just want to share some love for all the timid and anxious cats out there who are just doing their best. I can imagine how sensitive they may feel, and I take extra care to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I speak in soft tones, move slowly, and give them plenty of space. I believe in meeting them exactly where they’re at with their needs and will never force an interaction. I also like to follow any tips or routines the cat parents suggest, because they know their cat best. My goal is always the same, to make sure these sweet kitties feel respected, cared for, and as comfortable as possible while their people are away.

Anna had taken care of my two cats numerous times and always treats them like they’re her own. I always know I can completely entrust them to her care and that she will not only be an exceptionally reliable sitter, but also give my cats all of the love and affection that I would if I were home. Anna is a quick and thorough communicator as well, which has always made coordinating cat care swift and easy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter for their cats

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 $37.00. 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.
