I currently have two of my own, Marni and Chicken, and have experience fostering kittens as well. I also volunteered at a shelter where I focused on socialization and worked with many shy, skiddish, and feisty kitties.
I’m happy to meet your catsitting needs whether it’s just popping by for a quick visit or giving your kitties some extra play time and love while you’re away. I’ll be sure to send you lots of cute photos of your babies and keep you updated as needed!

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

I have been catsititng on Meowtel for a little over a year now, but also have previous experience with fostering!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Besides hanging out with cute kitties, I enjoy giving the owners peace of mind while they’re away from their babies. I always appreciate when I receive photos and updates from my catsitter so I would love to do the same to others.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! Marni, a Snowshoe Siamese, and Chicken, an orange tabby. I adopted Marni first and took in Chicken as a foster, but ended up keeping him.

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

Don’t be afraid to ask questions or give very detailed instructions! We love to know all your pet’s special quirks and preferences. The little details help us cater to you and and your pet’s needs.

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

Patience is key! I try to approach slowly and do my best to gain their trust. I try to get them to associate me with something they like such as a tasty treat or fun toy. I let them approach me when they’re ready, and accept if they simply want to be left alone.

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:


  • More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.

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.

Pasadena cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $36.00. 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!
