Skyelar is a wonderful cat sitter! She has taken care of our two cats multiple times. Our cats are always content when we get back from our travels, so we know they were well cared-for! She always makes sure they both eat, even our shy boy who doesn’t always come out. This time she also had to administer a pill each day in a pill pocket to him, making sure the other cat didn’t take it! Skyelar always leaves our kitchen tidy and empty cat bowls clean. In addition to scooping the litter, she also cleans the area around the litter box before we come back from our travels, which is always so nice in to come home to! I highly recommend Skyelar!

Skyelar took incredible care of my two cats. She was attentive and kind during the meet and greet, and I was confident she’d be a great sitter. My cats are particular about their food, and Skyelar was on top of it all. I looked forward to her updates and photos each day, knowing my boys were in great hands! Skyelar even went above and beyond bringing in packages delivered while I was away, too. Thank you, Skyelar!

Skyelar is absolutely awesome! We had her take care of our kitties while we were out of the country for a week. Our situation was a little more challenging than most with a variety of cat diets, some meds, a senior cat that doesn’t always make it to the litter box in time and also having to keep some kitties in separate rooms to avoid potential fights. We met with Skyelar before our trip to go over the care instructions, and immediately we felt very comfortable with her. She has a great personality and communication is easy with her. Daily she left us very detailed updates of how all the kitties were doing, what she did while visiting and pictures/ videos of our kitties! We are very happy with how our kitties were taken care of while we were gone and would highly recommend!

I was worried about leaving my very shy but very sweet cat for 3 nights. I was so pleased to get updates with photos and videos every night. I would definitely use Skyelar again! She really has a way with cats, and she is a very nice person.

I booked Skyelar a couple months in advance and did a meet and greet a couple of days before we needed her. I was concerned she might have forgotten but she was right on time. Our kitty is elderly and timid, but she got up and came over to greet Skyelar, which was a pleasant surprise. During our trip Skyelar sent us specific notes each day with several cute photos. Chloe was well taken care of and we had great piece of mind . I highly recommend her to any kitty parents. Thank you, Skyelar!

This was our second time working with Skyelar and she was great both times. Our cat is a shy senior and she really connects with her. That gave me peace of mind while I was gone.

Skyelar did a fantastic job taking care of our 6 month old kitten Luna. We received daily updates and pictures of our Luna. We would definitely consider hiring her again and recommending her to friends.

First time using Meowtel and I am SO glad I did and that it was Skyelar. Not only was I able to enjoy my trip, I'm grateful my cats were able to stay at home where they're comfortable. Skyelar was awesome and I knew I had nothing to worry about as soon as we met. So sweet and can tell she loves cats. She did a spectacular job with the typical cat maintenance and sent pics and collages of the cats! One of the cats is very shy and she even got pics of that one! The 3 cats and I 100% recommend Skyelar!

Skyelar sent the best updates while we were away and I was so relieved to know great care was given. I liked our meet and greet which made it easy to take a trip away from my four cats and be relaxed. The boys like having someone at home at night so overnight stays were what made me comfortable going away. Skyelar made this easy and my house looked untouched. Thank you so much.

Five Purrs for Skyelar! Our recent trip was worry-free thanks to her exceptional care of our feline family and immaculate housekeeping. Our two cats were very confortable with Skyelar, even our very shy cat who was fine with her being in the house. Our friendly cat was very happy to see her to be fed, of course, but also to be cuddled and to play! Skyelar kept us connected with daily updates and adorable photos. Seeing our cats enjoying their stay made our trip even more enjoyable. Skyelar's skills extend far beyond the cat kingdom. She took care of picking up the mail and putting away the garbage bins. In short, Skyelar is reliable, communicative, and goes above and beyond to ensure your furry friends and home are well-loved and well-kept.

Skyelar always takes wonderful care of our kitties! She makes sure our shy boy eats his meals, and she gives lots of love and playtime to our social girl! We can tell she shows them so much love! She always leaves our house and the kitties’ bowls/eating area and litter boxes very clean! We highly recommend Skyelar!

This is the second time Skyelar has watched our kitties and everything was just as perfect the first time. I’ve never felt more comfortable leaving our cats and our house as I have knowing Skyelar is stopping in and taking the best care of our fur babies. We will use her services as long as we possibly can!

Nothing but absolute praise. Skyelar is not only a sweetheart personally, her daily updates were amazing and she cared for our crazy bunch as if they were her own. Her love for animals is clear and will be booking her for all of our future vacations. I cannot thank her enough for giving us such peace of mind while we were gone

Frequently Asked Questions

Oceanside cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a free 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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
