Cat Sitting in San Diego, CA

Hello, fellow catrents!

My name is AJ, and I'm a special needs catmom of three. Toast is my sassy, first-born, Russian Blue Queen. Bama is my adventurous, blind, epileptic, and polite as can be baby girl. Crispr is my spunky orange boy who is also a blind, fearless adventurer! I learn so much from these three, and I’m so lucky to be their catmom.

I started off as a Meowtel consumer and then decided to become a Chicago sitter in 2019... because who doesn’t want more cats and cat-people in their life? I have...
Hello, fellow catrents!

My name is AJ, and I'm a special needs catmom of three. Toast is my sassy, first-born, Russian Blue Queen. Bama is my adventurous, blind, epileptic, and polite as can be baby girl. Crispr is my spunky orange boy who is also a blind, fearless adventurer! I learn so much from these three, and I’m so lucky to be their catmom.

I started off as a Meowtel consumer and then decided to become a Chicago sitter in 2019... because who doesn’t want more cats and cat-people in their life? I have since relocated to San Diego, and I love caring for West Coast kittos!

I know what it’s like to be a nervous catrent, so please know my goal is for you to enjoy your time away (stress-free!) and take comfort in the fact that your kitto is safe under my watch. I will provide their meals lovingly, engage them in all the playtime they’d like, and ensure their litter box area is clean and tidy. I’ll keep you updated on our time together and send you plenty of fun pictures and videos (cats truly are the best photography subjects 😸)! I am also happy to provide additional services such as plant care, vacuuming, garbage disposal, mail collection, etc. Just let me know what I can do to put you at ease!


High fives and low paws,
AJ

Ashley is a purrfect cat sitter and I truly feel lucky to have found her! I have a really hard time leaving my cat, but Ashley is the sweetest and super communicative about my girl throughout the entire time I am away. This time was a bit different from the other times Ashley cat sat for me in that my kitty needed meds in her food and medicated nose drops, but this wasn't an issue and Ashley did a stellar job handling the new routine. I also love that Ashley sends quality photos and videos so I can ooooh and ahhh from afar. Thanks Ashley!

Ashley is so wonderful. While we were out of town our kitty had to be taken to the ER. She was so wonderful and gave up her time for our cat. She gave me clear updates through the whole process. We are forever grateful!

Ashley was awesome. At first, Maus wouldn't come out from under the bed, but Ashley made sure she was eating, brought her food to her and patiently sat there while Maus ate and tentatively accepted treats. She finally gained her trust and Maus emerged from under the bed. Also, when our flight was cancelled and we had to stay out of town for another night, Ashley was flexible and totally willing to come back an extra day. Every day I received texts, pictures and videos. Ashley is very experienced with cats and I felt totally confident that she was not only taking care of Maus, but that she has genuine love & affection for felines. I highly recommend Ashley as a loving, experienced cat sitter & will definitely use her again.

You will not find a better cat sitter than Ashley! My cat loves her. He lets her pet and scratch is head, massage his shoulders in a way he will not let me. She sends wonderful photos and videos and he is just blissed out. I’m pretty sure he likes her more than me!

Ashley was incredible. She understood that Macie has very aggressive fear responses and took the time to be patient with her. In just two visits, Ashley was spending time with Macie and they were even playing! Ashley's communication was constant and she helped us feel confident that Macie was in safe hands while we were away. Highly highly highly recommended especially if you have an emotional cat.

Frequently Asked Questions

Reservations officially begin at 12:00 AM in the sitter's time zone on the start date. Cat Parents may cancel within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund, as long as the reservation has not yet started. After the first 24 hours, the following cancellation rules apply:


  • More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.

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!
