Learn More About Courtney

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 2 cats myself. My first cat is a 5 year old tuxedo cat named Cleo. She is very majestic and is the queen of the house. My other cat is 2 years old her name is Binx and she’s the silly, rambunctious one who is the most lovable.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I would first check with the cat parents to see if the cats have any unsafe behaviors when under stress or in the presence of a new person so I can be aware of triggers. Aside from that I would always make sure to keep away any toxic materials (food, plants, etc), keep all doors closed and be aware of anything else in the environment that could be dangerous.

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

Giving them the time and space to approach me with no added pressure. I would make sure to have lots of reinforcement nearby when they do build up the courage so that they know I’m a safe and fun human to be around.

Courtney took our request quickly. She communicated great and we set up a first meeting with the cats before the sitting dates. She was friendly and sweet and the cats took to her. During the sitting, she text me and sent pictures of the cats and kept me updated. Great experiance!

Courtney is an amazing pet sitter. She is very attentive to our cats needs. She made our cat feel safe and supported even though he is a little shy. She had great communication and kept me updated the entire time she was watching our cat.

Frequently Asked Questions

San Diego cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
