Right away when we saw his cat tattoo we knew James was a cat person! More that that, James is a cat whisperer! We have a shy kitty who usually hides behind the tv when new people come in the house. James' gentle nature drew our Ollie out of his shell right away. Both our kitties immediately came up to him requesting pets. I had no doubt then that we had found a gem! James followed all our instructions to the letter and we came home to super relaxed, happy kitties! Book James! You won't be disappointed!

I feel so lucky to have found James Baker to care for my shy cat, Cade. Cade is usually very shy around new people, but James was incredibly patient and gentle, taking the time to earn his trust. It was clear from the updates and thoughtful messages James sent that he truly understands and respects cats and their personalities. James is reliable, communicative, and has a real gift with animals. We couldn't recommend him more highly!

Frequently Asked Questions
Sacramento cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
