I’m a calm, reliable cat sitter with two cats of my own at home, one spaz speedball named Smokey and a cuddly ragdoll named Artemas ! I’m patient with shy or nervous cats and let them set the pace for trust. I love making each visit stress-free with soft voices, gentle care, and playtime if they’re up for it. I’m detail-oriented with feeding, litter care, and routine updates, so you’ll never wonder how your cat is doing while you’re away. Whether your kitty loves cuddles, quiet companionship, or independent space, I adjust to their mood and needs. Your cat’s comfort and safety always come first!

Learn More About Julia Renee

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love earning a cat’s trust and seeing their personality come out over time. Whether it’s a shy kitty finally approaching me or a playful one inviting me to join their zoomies, each moment feels rewarding. I also enjoy giving pet parents peace of mind by providing reliable care and regular updates while they’re away.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have two very different but lovable cats. Artemas is my sweet, cuddly Ragdoll—she’s all white with long, super soft fur. She’s attached to me most but warms up to others over time, and once she does, it’s impossible not to fall in love with her. She’s affectionate but has her sassy moments too! Smokey is my little speedball—timid at first and easily startled, but once she trusts you, she loves gentle pets and playtime. She’s full of energy and loves her zoomies, but you have to earn her trust with patience and sensitivity.

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

I treat both the home and the cats with care and respect as if they were my own. I always double-check doors, windows, and locks before leaving to ensure the home stays secure. I follow any specific instructions the owner leaves about feeding, medications, and routines. I’m careful about not letting indoor-only cats near open doors and I’m observant for anything unusual, like changes in behavior or signs of illness. I also send regular updates to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away.

Julia was an excellent cat sitter. We did 3 overnights. The house was tidy and our two extra large Maine Coons were well taken care of. WE will definitely use Julia again.

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 Diego cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $32.00. 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!
