I love spending time with cats and want to provide my services to cat parents alike so that your fabulous furry family members are in safe hands! I have cat sitted for various friends and neigbours.

Originally from England. Moved to NorCal in 2016 and relocated to SoCal a couple years ago. Love the SoCal vibesss!

I love to cook and eat as well as hosting tea parties and dinners for my family and friends. I’m an introverted extrovert so enjoy staying at home and watching horror movies with my boys or out and about explore different cities and countries. I like to be creative and dance (without the talent). I’m a your regular fun loving gal!

I’m a pisces so definitely a people pleaser and really enjoy helping wherever I can. I work as a Wedding Planner/Coordinator in La Jolla so my days off change constantly depending on the events happening but I love what I do!!

I currently reside in Rancho Peñasquitos but happy to travel in and around San Diego!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! A long haired named Leo and short haired name Theo. You can find pictures of them both in my profile!

What is your favorite cat toy?

Springs!!! I give my cats endless amount of springs which they love to lose and rediscover! It’s a great game ahaha

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

Selina was great with our kitten! He was very well cared for and we appreciated the updates and photos of him she sent while we were away.

This was my first time hiring someone to catsit that I didn't already know & I had some difficulties on my first attempt that left me scrambling at the last minute, but Selina quickly stepped in and was a great help in reading my anxieties. She was incredibly communicative before, during, & after which was a great help. When she showed up she was prepared with questions to ask and was patient while I rambled. Taking care of two cats with such different personalities can be tough, but she did a great job of caring for them both.

Selina was great with our very challenging and confusing cat who begs for pets and then immediately overstimulates and gets aggressive. Selina put up with a lot from our boy and had a very positive and understanding attitude! She was very accommodating and timely as well!

This is our second time booking with Selina! She is amazing with keeping us informed about our kitties when we are away. We stay updated about anything that goes on, between how much each of my boys ate, anything out of the ordinary, their demeanor, the litter box, packages, etc! 💖 my kitties get spoiled while we are gone!

Selina is amazing! It was so great to recieve detailed updates for each visit with multiple pictures. Selina went above and beyond to ensure our kitties were comfortable while we were away. She left everything super tidy and made sure our return home was successful! We will definitely book with Selina again! 💕🥹

Selina was great with our two cats. Although they are quite shy and tend to hide when visitors are in the house, Selina had them coming up to her for pets the very first day. She took great care of them.

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 $31.00. 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!
