Cat Sitting in Pico Rivera, CA

I currently have 5 cats of my own all have been rescued from shelters. I love animals. I find cats to be so unique. They each have their own personality which makes them fun to be around. I have a lot of patience with cats who are shy. I love the company one gets with having a cat. They make me feel safe, loved, and I know that my cats appreciate everything I do for them. I love coming home and getting greeted at the door by them. Looking to rescue more in the future and give them a loving home... I currently have 5 cats of my own all have been rescued from shelters.

Michelle did a wonderful job watching our cats while we were away on our wedding weekend! She was very attentive, kind, and communicative. I felt very comfortable knowing she was taking great care of our babies. I would absolutely book her again in the future!

This is the second time Michelle cat sat for me. She is always professional and super friendly. She manages my kitty crew with aplomb and always spends time with them beyond just feeding.

Absolutely amazing - Michelle is so caring and such a great sitter. She took care of our young cat for the longest we’d ever been away from him - making him feel loved and safe while we were gone! I don’t know what we would have done without her - she is a great communicator, super thorough, AND takes AMAZING PHOTOS. We will absolutely work with her again, our little guy loves her too!!

Michelle watched our Ascher while we were on a quick trip and she was wonderful with him! Very communicative and sent us pictures and videos from that day. We came home to a happy kitty and would recommend Michelle for your cat sitting needs :).

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.

Pico Rivera cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $37.00. 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!
