Learn More About Tina

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes I do! I have two sweet cats of my own, Athena, a 3-year-old orange American Shorthair who’s curious and independent, and Crush, a 2-year-old tabby who’s playful, snuggly, and full of personality.

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite toy is the classic feather wand. It’s such a simple toy, but it brings out their hunting instincts and gives us a fun way to bond and burn energy.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

For timid or anxious cats, I always move slowly and let them set the pace. I never force interaction, I give them plenty of space and let them come to me when they’re ready. I speak softly and avoid eye contact at first to show them I’m not a threat. Sometimes I’ll just hang out quietly so they can get used to my presence without pressure. I also pay close attention to their cues, if they’re not ready for pets or play, that’s totally fine. It’s all about building trust gradually and helping them feel safe in their own space.

My cat Simon is 5 years old and is very nervous around other people. Tina has taken care of him multiple times and she has taken the time to get to know what he is comfortable with and now they are great friends. Simon had a urinary blockage a year ago and is on prescription food and Tina is the best with making sure he eats all his food along with texting me updates after cleaning his litter box. It can be difficult leaving your cat who has been sick in the past but with Tina I know she will take care of him the way I would. Tina is also very respectful of my home when she has watched Simon, I always come home to a clean space and a happy cat. Tina is extremely trustworthy and caring and gives everything she does 100%. I would recommend Tina to anybody who wants to be 100% sure they are leaving their fur baby with someone who will love them and care for them the way they would.

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 $32.00. 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.
