I'm Patricia

Cat Sitting in San Diego, CA

I have been a cat parent for over 24 years. I personally have parented 5 cats of my own, including one who lived 19.5 years, during 2 years of which I nursed him through intestinal lymphoma. Another was brought to me pregnant, and I assisted her in delivering her litter of 6 kittens, 4 of which I then fostered and adopted out. I kept 2 of them, as well as mama cat. I have also assisted my daughter when she worked at a cat rescue shelter. I currently have a 14 year old cat named Mo (seen in my profile pic), as well as a golden retriever named Darwin. Both of my daughters have 2 cats each, and I care for them when my daughters are out of town... I have been a cat parent for over 24 years.

Both of my daughters have 2 cats each, and I care for them when my daughters are out of town. I work part time, mostly in the evenings, so my schedule is pretty flexible to take on catsitting jobs. I usually like to sit in the mornings, but can sometimes take some jobs later in the day as well. I am able to travel locally in San Diego to care for your cats. I limit myself to a 5 mile radius, but am willing to travel a bit further, just ask!

I am comfortable with administering oral medications, eyedrops, eardrops, and topical medications. I will scoop litter boxes, clean up hairball messes, and feed and give your cat(s) treat, according to your wishes. I will send you photo updates of your cat(s) as well

Covid protocol: I am vaxxed and boosted, and am happy to wear a mask in your house if required.

I absolutely adore any and all cats, and most are friendly to me as well. I look forward to giving your cats lots of love and pets!!

I am also happy to bring in your mail/Amazon packages and water your plants while you are away!

I tend to be pretty anxious leaving for vacation because of our cats, but Patricia was so attentive and thoughtful that I wasn’t worried about them at all! I was able to fully enjoy the trip, knowing the cats and our home were taken care of. I will absolutely be using Patricia as a sitter the next time we travel.

Patricia was absolutely wonderful - she came by every day right on time, gave very detailed photo and video updates with plenty of pictures, gave KitKat lots of pets and played with her, and even succeeded in getting her to take her pill every day (which is not easy)! The detailed updates and quick responses were very helpful in putting our minds at ease while we were away. Thanks Patricia!

Patricia is AMAZING!! We had a planned 5 day trip that unexpectedly turned into 7. She was so helpful and took away all the stress of being away from our fur baby. She sent daily updates/pictures and was always on time to feed our her. 100% requesting her services for the future! High recommended.

Patricia was amazing! We felt like our kitties were in great hands while we were on vacation. She sent several photos and updates, and gave a thorough description of her visit. She even checked out mail and brought some packages in for us. I will absolutely book her in the future!

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!
