Cat Sitting in San Clemente, CA

As a cat mom myself, I understand the importance of finding the right fit for trusting another person to watch my cat.
My cat is not only my fur baby, he is part of our family. I have volunteered at different cat shelters as well as cat sat for multiple families in my neighborhood. I understand the importance of communication and patience when it comes to meeting a new person, from the cats perspective.
My own personal cat, a tuxedo named Leo, has multiple health issues including kidney disease, so I am very skilled on medication administration as well as controlling all other entities that can contribute flair ups. From noticing when something is off, continuing to clean and monitor litterboxes, to play time or giving him his space to rest. I go at his pace!

Learn More About Sarah

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Getting to meet new cats and learning their personalities. Every single cat I’ve encountered always has their own little quirks about them and I absolutely love that.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have one tuxedo cat named Leo! He does have some health issues, so I am aware of how to administer medication. But he is such a joy and I love his zoomies!

What is your favorite cat toy?

Cat wands I have found to be a go to for every cat I have watched thus far. Whether is be a chaser toy or a ribbon, they absolutely love it!

Topical Ointments Eye/Ear Drops Oral Medication / Pills Injections / Diabetic Management Inhalers

Sarah was absolutely phenomenal with Cinder! Super attentive and asking specific questions to ensure all his needs were met. I also really appreciated the daily pictures and videos, truly really went above and beyond to make me and him both feel comfortable. He is usually very reserved with strangers but in a short period of time he was playful and became his typical affectionate, chatty self. Thank you so much Sarah!! ❤️

Sarah is the best! From our first meeting with her, I felt comfortable and assured that my 3 kitties would be taken care of by someone trustworthy, who truly knows cats. She took the time to play and engage with our attention hungry boy Jack, and respected the space of our more skittish girls. I appreciated the daily photos and updates, and easy communication. I would definitely recommend Sarah and will for sure book her again in the future!

I can't recommend Sarah highly enough as a cat sitter. Her calm and caring nature immediately has put any cat both mine and other pets of mutual friends, at ease. She truly goes above and beyond to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for in your absence. What sets Sarah apart is her exceptional communication. She will keep the pet owner updated with daily messages and adorable photos, which brings so much peace of mind while they’re away. She’s always prompt, clear, and thoughtful in her updates—something anyone would really value. Sarah also has a special gift for reassurance. Whether it’s handling a shy or anxious cat or responding quickly to any concerns, she exudes confidence and calm that makes it easy to trust her completely. I knew my cats are in the best hands with her, and I never worry when she’s in charge. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely devoted to the wellbeing of your cats, Sarah is the one. I wouldn’t leave my pets with anyone else.

Sarah always goes the extra mile to ensure that every fur baby is loved and cared for as if they were her own - who lives like king he is! She can administer medication, handle picky eater feedings, ensure litter box hygiene is properly maintained, and our girls have been exercised and stimulated.

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 Clemente 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 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!
