Hi, my name is Cyra! I received my bachelor’s degree in Global/International studies from UC Riverside and am currently in Optometry school working towards my doctorate. I have always grown up with animals and currently have 3 girl cats and 1 boy dog (Shiba 16, Chanel & Cleo 7, and Chico 16).
In my free time I enjoy working out, painting, and cooking new recipes.
I absolutely adore animals and will make sure you feel safe being away from your babies. Plus, getting to play with and cuddle cats will be the perfect break from my study schedule. My schedule slightly fluctuates weekly but please don’t hesitate to reach out and we can work something out together.
Let me know if you have any questions :)
Learn More About Cyra
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
My favorite part about cat sitting and just cats in general is seeing how different each one of their personalities is. Cats are the funniest animals in my opinion because they have so much attitude in such a small body.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
Find somebody that that not only has experience with cats and animals in general but someone that knows how to handle your specific type of cat. I am talking about personality wise, not necessarily breed. If you have a shy or timid cat, you want to make sure that the sitter you are choosing knows how to approach that type of personality and will be very gentle in how they behave with your baby. Each cat is very unique and it’s important to approach one in a unique way to ensure they feel the most safe and comfortable with the sitter.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I make sure to ask the cat parent any specific things that the cat likes or requires. My eldest cat, for example, will not eat her wet food unless it’s all pushed into the center of the bowl. And most the time she requires somebody to pet her in order to finish her meal. Little things of that sort might seem so minute to us as people but it is very important to keep that routine for a cat.

We had an incredible time having Cyra watch our kittens. She was quick to respond and attentive to our questions throughout the entire time she watched them. I know I speak for both my wife and I when I say we were nervous at first because it was the first time away from our kittens and for such a long time. All of our stress and anxiety melted away when we knew Cyra was watching them for us. There were daily updates and pictures for us the whole time we were gone. Cyra would be a welcome addition to anyone looking to have a caring attentive and prompt sitter. Thank you so much Cyra from all of us. We will absolutely use you again when we need to have someone watch our kitties! You made our honeymoon so much more enjoyable because of your care! Until we see you again!

Cyra was recommended to us by our usual cat sitter in the area and she was great! We were gone for 12 days (the longest away from home) and she made us feel very comfortable leaving our two cats. Sent us pictures and updates, even got a few snaps of our shy cat! When we came back everything was in great shape, will definitely check with her again for our next trip! Thank you Cyra!

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.
Pomona cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $31.00. 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!
