Rina is always so sweet to our kitties! They were so happy to see her and she does a great job with feeding (including medicine). We so appreciate her help when we have last-minute requests for her to stop in! ❤️❤️❤️

Booked Rina for a second time for a 3-day res and the cats greeted her as if she never left. They both enjoy playing with her and getting fed treats. It gives peace of mind knowing that the cats are taken care of while away.

We couldn’t have asked for a more caring, thoughtful, and detail-oriented cat sitter during our three-week vacation! From the moment we met Rina, it was clear how much she truly loves and understands animals. She went above and beyond to ensure our cat, Ruben, felt comfortable, loved, and cared for in our absence. She provided regular updates, including pictures and videos, giving us much peace of mind. Seeing Ruben happy, playful, and relaxed under her care was so reassuring. She even took the time to learn about his favorite toys, routines, and quirks to ensure he felt as close to his regular routine as possible. We also appreciated her attention to detail—she kept Ruben's food and water bowls clean and ensured his litter box was spotless. Coming home to a calm and purry Ruben spoke volumes about the care and effort she put into looking after him. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet like their own, we wholeheartedly recommend Rina!!! Ruben already misses her, and we know who we’ll call for our next trip!

Rina was so perfect for our little ones! She was super sweet and playful for our very needy boy while being very gentle with our fiesty girl cat. All of her updates were thorough and she sent lots of photos! We couldn’t recommend Rina enough, she did such a great job over the holidays!

Rina did a great job on communication and engaging with our two boys: Morphy and Neo. She had made a great first impression with Neo who doesn't open up to strangers right away. We were away on vacation for 6 days and booked Rina for 5 and they went well. Although there was a calendar conflict that had occurred on the first day, it was quickly resolved by the next day. Had received plenty of photo/videos and status updates of the cats demeanor and them playing. Helped us alot to have a peace of mind without worrying much about their wellness. I highly recommend her and will be booking her for future trips.

Rina was excellent! When she came to my house for a meet and greet, she took notes the entire time to make sure that my cats got the exact care they needed. She was very good with communication to let me know when she was arriving, and also to send pictures and updates of my cats. They loved her, and everything beyond exceeded my expectations! Highly recommend. Will definitely look to see if Rina is available the next time I need someone to look after my babies!

Rina was absolutely incredible, and KitKat took to her right away! She spent lots of time playing and giving her pets, and sent us tons of pics and videos as well as detailed daily updates (along with cute stories of playtime!). Rina really went above and beyond, we’ll definitely be booking again.

Rina is fantastic! She really engaged with our cat - took her for walks, played with her, gave her snuggles and treats. It was nice to know we left our cat in such great hands. Rina is awesome and an A+ cat sitter

Rina was great with both of my cats. I was worried about one of my cats who has an attachment issue, but she kept me updated and sent pictures while she visited. Overall a great experience!

Rina was very thorough with all of the daily care my cats would require. She sent daily updates with pictures and videos and on how the cats were eating/drinking as well. She even went above and beyond and offered to water my plants and vacuumed the common area on her last day. She is amazing!

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 $33.00. 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.
