So, I know how important it is to have just the right cat sitter to love and care for my kitties when I can't be there.

Melin's Reviews
Sharon
Relatively easy. I am happy Melin took the opening. I would like to have her take care of Rosebud again. She worked hard to help Rosebud overcome real fear and shyness. She was very kind and understanding with me.
Maribel
Melin was amazing with our two boys! Not only did she provide great updates and made sure the cats were well taken care of but she was also kind enough to help put away a package that needed to be refrigerated while we were away. Overall she was awesome!
Anna Sofia
Melin is a wonderful cat sitter. She sends cute updates and is very patient with our anti-social kitty. Highly recommend!
Krysta
melin was a star with our cats and helping us identify and take action on a plumbing emergency that happened while we were gone. she kept the cats safe and feeling secure while strangers were in and out assessing the problem. her communication was above and beyond and we felt very comfortable despite our house issues.
Frida
Melin is always the best. I trust her with my dramatic and needy senior cats. I really appreciate her a lot, she’s also the sweetest person in general!! ^••^

Frequently Asked Questions
San Diego cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $37.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
