Aki was absolutely wonderful! She made the entire experience completely hassle-free and gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly thoughtful and attentive, and I really appreciated all the little details she even cleaned up a furballs and other spills due to my cat and made sure everything was exactly where it belonged before leaving. Everything including litter box and food bowl, water disoenser was left incredibly neat, tidy, and well cared for. It was clear that Aki genuinely takes pride in what she does and goes the extra mile to make sure both your pet and your home are taken care of. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust Aki with my cat again. Highly recommend her!

Aki did a wonderful job taking care of our fur baby Bianca during our 2-week trip to Japan. During each visit, Aki kept us informed with great photos and videos of Bianca and updates on her eating habits. She also kept Bianca's litter clean, documented her meals, watered our plants, and brought in packages that were left outside. Bianca is very shy and can be picky about who she opens up to, but she loved spending time with Aki, and we are very grateful for this. Thank you so much, Aki! We look forward to working with you again :)

A late breaking issue with our kitty required a switch from dry food (automated feeder) to wet (needs a human). Rather than have one of us stay home and miss a family trip, we looked for short term care options. Meowtel came up. I booked one day before our trip. Aki was available. She came by to meet the kitties the next day, took notes on their care routine and while we were performed their care for us. She also sent cute videos documenting everything and to let us know our kitties were feeling good and were in good hands. Thank you Aki!

I was very anxious about leaving my cats, but Aki made me feel completely at ease. She sent lots of pictures and videos, which really helped me feel comfortable while I was away. She even showed me before-and-after photos of cleaning their litter boxes and keeping their food and water fresh every day. She’s incredibly detailed and attentive. At one point, one of my furbabies went missing and I was very concerned, but Aki immediately helped me find her, which truly meant so much to me. She genuinely cares. Even though she had a short amount of time with my five furbabies, she still made time to play with them whenever she could. She was also very responsive to any questions I had. Aki is truly an awesome sitter, and I would absolutely love to reserve her again in the future! Aki is amazing and wonderful!

Aki is so good with cats and she is professional and responsible and kind. Aki met with me for preconsukt and took notes and looked at my binder of notes I had. When Aki took care of my cats she took time to play with them and took photos and videos and shared them with me of both cats. She fed my cats and cleaned their litter boxes and followed the routines and sent me photos of all the steps. She is very thorough and kind and good to my cats. Her care is excellent. I felt so happy to know that Aki was taking such great care of my 2 cats and that they were enjoying the play times and getting fed and routines of the evening and morning. Aki is amazing. I highly recommend Aki for cat care. I am going to ask Aki early about my dates for next trip because I feel so confident of her care and kindness and responsibility.

Aki has watched my cats multiple times, and most recently watched them while I was on an international trip. She goes above and beyond and really gets to know my my cats personally and individualizes her care based on their personalities/needs. I have three very chaotic cats who definitely get anxiety when I’m gone(as do I) and Aki really helps alleviate that. When I get home, my apartment is clean and my cats are calm and cared for. I highly recommend her!

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.

San Bruno cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $40.00. 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!
