I'm Jodi | Cat Sitting in Poway, CA

***Message for my current clients: If you are looking to book soon for November or December, please message me with your dates and I will open my calendar for you. My holiday rate for those dates is + 30% for new clients/infrequent clients or 15% if you have booked with me 4 or more times in the preceding year *** ***My mornings are full Aug 29 - Sept 5. If you need afternoon or evening visits on those dates, message me and I will open the calendar for you to book. I'm keeping it closed because I can't add any additional morning visits that week, but am happy to add afternoon/evening.*** I have decades of experience with cats. I started out having cats as pets and later in life married someone who is allergic to most animals. Because of that, I started doing volunteer work first at my local pet store that had rescue cats for adoption and then through a large nationally known rescue. I have also volunteered in their pet hospital, assisting the vet techs and the veterinarians. While the rescue is all about senior pets, they occasionally take in kittens and I have had the pleasure of bottle feeding a newborn kitten, as well as the normal stuff of playing with and handling the kittens to get them ready for adoption. I currently do cat drop-in visits in Poway, CA and the immediate surrounding area. In very rare cases, I am available for overnight sitting. My calendar doesn't show overnight availability because it's so rare. Please inquire if you are looking for overnight service and do not need me to be there during the day. Prior to starting my cat care business, I worked in a natural food/supply store for cats and dogs and am very comfortable with all types of diets....

Learn More About Jodi

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to hang out with kitties and to form long term relationships with them. Since my husband has severe allergies, my cat sitting clients are the closest thing to having my own kitties.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

One of my favorite cat sitting jobs was with a senior cat who was known to keep to himself or hide when sitters come by. He ended up following me around and checking to make sure I was doing a good job. Since then, I have sat for him many times and we've played with toys, had conversations where he talks a lot and one time he even came running to the door to greet me.

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

Ask lots of questions! You can get a good feeling about the sitter by asking questions. Scheduling a meet and greet is crucial to assess the sitter's confidence in caring for your kitties and your home.

13 days this trip! It was the longest we have ever left Stella. Jodi was her usual, responsible, responsive, positive caregiver for out cat. We are so lucky to have connected with Jodi through Meowtel and appreciate all of the little things she does while we are gone.

Rainy weather and a shy kitty doesn’t affect the excellent service provided by Jodi! She has stuck with it on her efforts to win over Stella and this time Stella came out and supervised Jodi’s work. Thank you Jodi for always providing top notch care.

Jodi was fantastic. She knew I left earlier (me being the primary caretaker of our cat) and my husband left out supplies for her—and she let me know all was great on day one! Love her notes and photos!

Jodi was great with both my cats who have very different personalities. My shy cat warmed up quicker than I have ever see when Jodi came to meet them. Lot so updates and very attentive to the details. I knew they were well cared for and this was wonderful.

Another great cat sitting experience with Jodi! Our cat is very shy and she still finds a way to get photos to let us know she is doing well.

Our second reservation with Jodi was a great as the first. She discovered an outside faucet that had been CB left on and even handled that one for us!!

Jodi was our first sitter with Meowtel, and we were thrilled beyond expectations. Her communication was outstanding especially as our cat is very shy and reluctant with strangers. We also had gate issues at the time and Jodi handled spur of the moment necessary changes for entry without blinking an eye. We feel fortunate that our cat, Stella has a wonderful caregiver when we are out of town.

Jodi did really well. My cats had fun with her and from her photo updates, my cats loves her and I am glad my babies are feeling comfortable and taken care of when we are away. I like how she take notes, and very attentive to basics of what my cat would need if we are gone. I will have her again as my cat sitter if we went somewhere again and my cat needs to be taken care of. Highly recommend her! I will also pass my word to my friends if they are in need of one.
