Cat Sitting in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

I’ve grown up with cats for as long as I can remember. As kids we had Charlie and Georgie. When they passed away we got Max, then Chloe and Tigger. When I moved into my own place after college I got Rajah and Nala and, fourteen years later, they are still my best friends. I have always admired cats for their independence and see a lot of myself in them. Working for Disney for 10+ years I’ve learned patience, kindness, playfulne... I’ve grown up with cats for as long as I can remember. As kids we had Charlie and Georgie. When they passed away we got Max, then Chloe and Tigger. When I moved into my own place after college I got Rajah and Nala and, fourteen years later, they are still my best friends. I have always admired cats for their independence and see a lot of myself in them. Working for Disney for 10+ years I’ve learned patience, kindness, playfulness, and more, all skills that I use to make cats feel calm. I understand that when taking care of part of your family, I am being invited into thier space and it’s important to make them feel at peace. That means approaching with cautious confidence and letting your cats feel me out. Once I’ve gained thier trust I am all about cuddles and play time, allowing you to enjoy your time away knowing your cats are being taken care of.

Learn More About Robert

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two cats, Nala & Rajah (yes, named after the Disney characters)! They are fourteen year old sisters who have moved with me up and down Southern California since they weee born.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

When I first enter the home I make sure that nobody tries to escape! I close any door that I open behind me. I double check to make sure that all doors and windows are closed and locked appropriately and that any alarms are disarmed and alarmed when appropriate. I check check for any changes in the cats behavior and reach out if anything seems wrong.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available year-round, weekdays and weekends, including holidays. Having worked in retail and food & begraage locations I understand that need for customer service never stops!

Robert was such a purrfect sitter for my sweet boy. I was genuinely nervous to leave my little one for such an extended amount of time but Robert made reassured me that he was in good hands. He did daily updates with videos and pictures and provided a daily synopsis which was really nice. He’s been a cat daddy for a long time so you can tell he really knows his stuff. He even offered to clip my kitties nails which was thoughtful of him. I highly recommend him especially in your in the south Orange County area. Such a stand out guy who has a genuine love for cats.

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 Santa Margarita cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $32.00. 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!
