My name is Parker, I’ve been pet sitting for about 10 years now on and off. I’m super passionate about animals and I love getting to spend time with them. I had a 15 year old cat who had recently passed away and I’m looking to fill that void a little bit before getting another one of my own. I have a lot of experience with cat sitting. I’m very familiar with giving cats medications and I’ve given them shots before as well. I’m not currently working or in school so I can dedicate all of my free time to loving on your cats. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or inquiries!

Learn More About Parker

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

I’ve been cat sitting since I was a young teenager. I really love cats and love providing care for them. Any family and friends always come to me first when they need a sitter as I’ve always been incredibly respectful and responsive. I really love building these relationships with cats it’s always a great feeling when a cat is excited to see you or starts to cuddle up to you it’s a very rewarding relationship.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love being around cats and seeing how different their personalities can be I’ve always been a cat lover. I love to provide cats with some sort of comfort and love while their parents are gone.

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

I always make sure to enter the home cautiously ensuring not to leave opportunities for escaping and make sure the close the door fully behind me. I always keep an eye on the cats making sure they’re not getting into harmful things or entering areas they’re not allowed in. I also make sure to keep anything that could be harmful in areas that the cats cannot access. I will always lock doors leading outside behind me whether it’s when I enter or exit including any gates or other access to the property if applicable.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I typically have a lot of availability around the holidays and I will happily take care of your pets so that you can travel or do anything else you need to do without worrying about the safety of your pets

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

I have a very calm demeanor which I believe greatly helps the cat feel safer. I always move at the pace the cat sets I don’t want to disrespect any boundaries they try to set with me. When addressing the cat I always do it calmly and quietly. I let them have their safe spaces without me encroaching on them too much but still checking on them enough to ensure they are okay.

Parker was reliable and friendly, sent pictures of our cats with messages about how they were doing. We missed them a ton while we were on our trip and we looked forward to those messages.

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.

Sacramento cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $29.00. 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!
