Learn More About Alexander

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Cats are amazing animals. I enjoy interacting with them and seeing their different personalities. When I'm interacting with a new cat it takes me back in time and reminds me of old memories when I was young with my first childhood cat, Smooky. Cats communicate in different ways but I enjoy having a connection when you know they trust you moving forward.

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

Always close the door upon entering the home. Ensure their litter box and areas are clean with animal friendly products. I only use toys that cat safe. I'm not a fan of yarn or objects that can tangle an animal. Lastly, just being situationally sound. If something seems off, correct it. Leave the home in a better place than you found it and ensure the cat has everything it needs until their family returns to them.

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

I allow that cats to interact or become comfortable with me. When a cat is timid or anxious. It's probably because their was trama in their life at one point and you have to remember we are literal giants from their perspective. It's important to respect their boundaries. Be patient, calm, and cheerful. Overtime they will realize you're a friend and will open up to you or will atleast give you the opportunity to ensure their needs are met during your visit.

Cat lovers: I can’t recommend Alex enough as a cat sitter! He’s incredibly trustworthy, reliable, and always keeps great communication while you’re away. You can tell right away that he genuinely loves cats (he grew up in a home with three of them) and knows how to make them feel comfortable, cared for, and safe. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, administering meds, or just keeping a cat some company, Alex takes his role seriously and treats every cat like his own. If you’re looking for someone dependable with a natural bond with animals, Alex is your guy. Your cat will be in great hands!

Frequently Asked Questions

San Francisco cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $39.00. 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.
