Hello! It's nice to meet you! I'm Pao! Looking for a kitty loving sitter? Tired of not having options for cat sitters? Well look no further! Thank you for the opportunity to meet your furry baby and help you however I can! With knowledge and a keen eye for trouble I can assure the safety of your loved ones.

From shelters, hospitals, clinics, boarding facilities,I've learned I'm best at caring directly for animals and protecting them from harm.

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

I have been cat sitting since 2010, my own and my family's. I've also legally been giving care since 2018 when I was at PIMA for my veterinary assistant courses. I've specialized with cats always since I was already known to have the qualities of a cat whisperer, rarely being disliked by cats.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

The care I provide gives me a sense of pride. I'm very capable when it comes to medical care and quality play time, giving my cat friend's 1000% of my attention and love.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

Bubba is one of my newest friends, and quickly stole my heart. They're the sweetest kitty I've ever met! I'm very greatful to have met their owner!

Paola was absolutely amazing! From the moment she arrived, it was clear she had a true love of animals. she was incredibly respectful and professional, keeping me updated with pictures and messages about our cats throughout my time away. My cats immediately warmed up to her, and I could tell they were well cared for. Paola went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and happy. I truly appreciate her kindness and the care she gave my fur babies. I highly recommend Paola to anyone looking for a responsible, trustworthy, and loving sitter!

Honestly Paola was so wonderful with Sammy. She is incredibly sweet. She went above and beyond while I was out of town - made sure to be safe with entering the home, was prompt with updates about any concerns or when she arrived, and even brought my packages in + watered my plants. I’m so appreciative of her and gave me peace of mind while out of the state for the week. 🙏🏽🥹

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.
