I'm Kelly
Cat Sitting in Orange, CA
Not only have I owned cats, I try to help kitties in need... Hello! My name is Kelly and I have been a cat lady since birth. I have owned cats almost my entire life, which is about 25 years. My current job is working for Pet Butler. I work Monday-Friday. While working, I drive to customers' houses and dispose of dog waste. There is a fun benefit of playing with the dogs and rarely the cats at customers' houses. I am also a mother of a 9-year-old boy who wants nothing more than to be a zookeeper. He absolutely loves animals as well.
Not only have I owned cats, I try to help kitties in need. In the evenings, I volunteer with cat rescues. I go in and make sure the cats are socialized and well taken care of. In the past, I have volunteered with the OC animal shelter. There I would also socialize, feed, and provide fresh water for the cats.
I have over 25 years of experience with my own cats with eyedrops/eardrops, pills, and topical ointments.
All of my check-ins need to be after 2pm through Monday-Friday. The weekends have no time constraints. If you have a vacation that is further out, please feel free to message me and I can open the availability. I am nestled in old Towne Orange and would love to get to meet your kitties.

I highly recommend Kelly!!!! She is definitely a true cat lover!! I booked 8 daily visits for my 3 cats. (one of them requires oral medication daily) She sent detailed updates for each of my cats and pictures everyday... above and beyond what I expected. Not once did I feel concerned about leaving my cats in her care. She made my trip away so much better! She is professional and such a sweet caring person. I will 100% be booking her again.

Kelly is an amazing catsitter! She checked in on my cats daily for TWO werks, I seriously appreciated her so much. She sent pictures every day and told me how both cats were doing. Also, the two cats she was watching don’t get along and she was great about making sure they stayed safe. She was also a great communicator and very patient with my delays in communicating. She even swept up a bit so I could come back to a clean home. 💕 Again, can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be using Kelly for any future pet sitting needs!

Kelly was honestly the best. She went above and beyond her responsibilities— making sure all living creatures in the house (including plants!) were well taken care of. She sent daily pictures and definitely made my time away worry-free. Would definitely book her again!!

Once again Kelly did a great job with our two cats! Having Kelly care for your cats means you don't have to worry that they will be safe and sound when you get back. She even got sick during the time we were away but still took care of our pets like a total professional. We've used her several times before and will continue to use her in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions
Reservations officially begin at 12:00 AM in the sitter's time zone on the start date. Cat Parents may cancel within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund, as long as the reservation has not yet started. After the first 24 hours, the following cancellation rules apply:

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.
Orange cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $32.00. 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 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. 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 free Meet & Greet!

Kelly was amazing! I can really tell that she loves kitties. She also volunteers at cat rescues which is AWESOME. She was extremely responsive and did a great job with our five cats. I did not worry at all while I was out of town because she was so on top of everything. She sent us really sweet photos of our kitties while she was there, I will definitely hire her again!
