I'm Drew
Cat Sitting in Rancho Cordova, CA
I am deeply rooted in the world of pet care... Hello! I bring over a decade of professional experience from the pet care industry to my clients, and pride myself on providing exceptional care. My intuition enables me to connect with every creature, specializing in even the most challenging and apprehensive animals. I have a soft spot for senior pets and a niche for handling aggressive or fearful ones.
I am deeply rooted in the world of pet care. I've worked in pet hotels, veterinary care, and have owned and operated a pet care business for 8 years, along with being a professional pet photographer. My photography work was recently featured on the cover of STYLE Magazine! I also do feral TNR, cat fostering, and volunteer with local cat sanctuaries and animal rescues. Working with animals is my full-time job.
I share my home with four rescue cats: Desmond, Zeke, Masudi, and Asmodeus. You can often find me around Sacramento exploring scenic river spots, snuggling my pile of kitties, or running through traffic in pursuit of stray dogs.

Earning a cat's trust and giving them the attention and care they deserve!
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have 4 perfect boys! Desmond, Zeke, Masudi, and Asmodeus. They are my world.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
Hire a sitter who has professional experience and who understands cat behavior and body language.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
Talking through the needs of the client and their cats. Learning the personality of each cat and catering to their individual needs and personalities.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
Constant vigilance of my surroundings and being on alert for anything out of the norm.

Wiggle worms! Or natural fiber lures. Cats go nuts for both of those!

I was in a bind and needed a cat sitter incredibly last minute and around the holidays, so took a chance and reached out to Drew. She was very responsive, understanding, and quick to set my mind at ease. Her experience working with anxious cats was also what really encouraged me. My cat Fiona tends to be very skittish around new people and isn't the most friendly straight away, so I worried about getting her a sitter she didn't know, but she warmed right up to Drew the moment she walked through the door! Drew sent plenty of pictures to assure me of Fiona's well-being and it was clear my cat was really enjoying the time spent with her visitor. The updates on how she was doing were much appreciated and I'll definitely consider working with Drew again when making travel plans in the future! Thank you, Drew!

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.
Rancho Cordova cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. 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!

Drew did an amazing job with our kitties! Our one cat is very anxious and timid and she was sitting on her lap day 1! Drew followed our complicated instructions to a T and we came home to happy cats! We would definitely have them cat-sit again in a heartbeat and would recommend them to anyone!

Thank you Alysha! Your girls are an absolute joy to care for. You and your partner have the most lovely cat family, and I would be more than happy to work with you again!
