Cat Sitting in Rancho Cordova, CA
I volunteered at the Cat Town shelter and cat cafe in Oakland, California for a couple of years before moving to Rancho Cordova, which gave me some experience with anxious, sometimes standoffish cats as well as bright-eyed, bushy-tailed kittens.
I work remotely as a full-time graphic designer. I'm currently sticking to the Rancho Cordova / Fair Oaks / Folsom area for cat-sitting, but don't hesitate to get in touch if you live a bit further out.
When I'm not designing, I enjoy hiking, drawing, photography, cooking, and looking at cool bugs (don't worry, I won't bring any into your house).
Learn More About Lauren
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
Getting to know each individual cat – and the incredibly rewarding feeling of gaining their trust!
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have one cat named Hobart. He was just sort of a neighborhood cat for a few years, but he eventually picked us and now he's quite spoiled – he has his own cat door, an automatic feeder, a nice little fountain, and all of the vaccinations and medications he needs to live a full life.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
When introducing myself, I hold out my hand and let them sniff (if they're willing to get close enough). If they're too shy for that, I simply make sure their needs are met and wait for them to come to me.

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 $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!
