Cat Sitting in Redwood City, CA

I’ve had a cat in my life since I was in the womb! For 18 years, I was the proud mom to 2 rescue litter buddies, Alcachofa and Palmito (yes, that’s artichoke and hearts of palm in Spanish 🤣). Now that my kid is off to college, I’m ready to share my love... I’ve had a cat in my life since I was in the womb! For 18 years, I was the proud mom to 2 rescue litter buddies, Alcachofa and Palmito (yes, that’s artichoke and hearts of palm in Spanish 🤣). Now that my kid is off to college, I’m ready to share my love for kitties with yours. I’ll be there for all the playtime, quiet naps, and gentle loving when you cannot. I’m reliable, patient, and loving. And I’ll keep you as updated and informed as you want to be. I’ll make sure your cat is happy, happy, happy.

Learn More About Jennifer

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have just begun my journey with cat sitting. We lost our own 2 kitties about 2 years ago after 18 wonderful years. And now my oldest is going off to college. So not only do I have a lot more love to give to your baby, but I now find myself with lots more time too.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

We lost our two litter buddies, alcachofa and palmito, two years ago. We had 18 wonderful years with them, as we watched them grow and develop with our human babies. My husband and I always say we had 4 kids and the kids say they had 3 siblings!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I find it is always best to let the kitty do their thing. If they are timid or anxious, you’ve got to let them be. Sometimes just having a human be in the room can be enough for them to feel safe and secure. If they don’t want to engage, that’s just ok!

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.

Redwood City cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $37.00. 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!
