Cat Sitting in San Diego, CA

Hello!
I’m a dedicated cat sitter and lifelong cat lover who truly understands that cats aren’t “low-maintenance” — they’re just particular. I’ve spent years caring for cats of all personalities, from social lap-cats to shy observers who prefer their space, and I tailor my care to what makes your cat feel safe and comfortable.

When you’re away, I focus on keeping your cat’s routine as normal as possible. That means feeding schedules, fresh water,...
Hello!
I’m a dedicated cat sitter and lifelong cat lover who truly understands that cats aren’t “low-maintenance” — they’re just particular. I’ve spent years caring for cats of all personalities, from social lap-cats to shy observers who prefer their space, and I tailor my care to what makes your cat feel safe and comfortable.

When you’re away, I focus on keeping your cat’s routine as normal as possible. That means feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box care, playtime (on their terms), and plenty of gentle attention — or respectful distance if that’s what they prefer. I also keep a close eye on behavior and health, and I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is happy at home.

I treat every cat as if they were my own, with patience, reliability, and genuine affection. Your cat’s comfort, safety, and well-being are always my top priority.

Learn More About Asha

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

I’ve been cat sitting with Meowtel for 2 years and in San Diego for the last 10 years. I am always so nervous nerve to leave my kitties when I go out of town so I understand the importance of a trusted and reliable sitter. I will make sure they are loved on while you are on your trip 😻

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 2 cats that I adopted from the animal shelter. I named them Scout and Jem after the characters in Harper Lee’s novel To Kill a Mockingbird.

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite cat toy is the battery operated floppy fish! I could sit and watch cats play with this toy for hours!

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

I take a calm, patient approach with timid or anxious cats, always letting them set the pace. I keep their routine as consistent and familiar as possible, move slowly, and avoid forcing interaction, focusing instead on helping them feel safe in their own space. By paying close attention to body language and stress signals, I adjust my care to what each cat needs — whether that’s quiet companionship from a distance, gentle play, or simply respectful presence. My goal is to reduce stress and build trust gradually, so even nervous cats can feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away.

Asha is very chill and took care of my Chili while we were gone for the weekend. She sent us picture updates of our boy, and was kind enough to strip the sheets. she's detail oriented and would recommend her for overnight stays.

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.

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!
