I'm Chelsea
Cat Sitting in Sacramento, CA
I'm new to the platform, but not to cat sitting. I've owned cats all my life. I love meeting new cats, getting to know their personalities, and connecting with them. I can be patient with the shy, timid cats and easygoing with the spicier ones. I'm reliable and trustworthy. I usually start off by talking to your furbaby and letting them get to know me. Offering treats, speaking softly. If you have... Hello!
I'm new to the platform, but not to cat sitting. I've owned cats all my life. I love meeting new cats, getting to know their personalities, and connecting with them. I can be patient with the shy, timid cats and easygoing with the spicier ones. I'm reliable and trustworthy. I usually start off by talking to your furbaby and letting them get to know me. Offering treats, speaking softly. If you have specific instructions, or medications for me to administer, let me know. I also like to do free meet and greets either virtual or in person to get to know your mini panther, understand the needs for the visit and ask or answer any questions either of us might have. I also bring catnip and treats with me as a bonus. 😊 Whatever you need, I can help with. I'm a pet sitter you can trust. Thanks for reading 🙂
Learn More About Chelsea
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I enjoy spending time with cats because I adore them. My favorite animal. I enjoy getting know know new cats also see familiar ones.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes I do. I have a female and a male. Arya and Apollo. Had them both for years and they are my furbabies.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I like to do a Face to Face meeting either virtual or in person with the cat parent before the reservation and also with the furbaby.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I like to maintain constant contact to assure the cat parent that everything is going smoothly. Text messages and phone calls. Whatever works for both of us.
Are you usually available during holidays?
Sure! I don't mind sitting on the holidays. Getting to hang out with cats is what I love so if you need someone on the holidays I got you. 🙂
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I take it slow. I try to be patient with the cat and go at a pace that we're both comfortable with, or what the cat parent specifically recommends.

Reserving a caregiver was easy. I didn't have to wait long to hear back from Chelsea. We scheduled a meet & greet and Chelsea was on time, friendly, with appropriate questions and amenable to my requests. My cats were outside when Chelsea visited so no interaction was seen.

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 $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 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 Meet & Greet!
