Cat Sitting in San Francisco, CA

Hi Kitty lovers!

My name is Jennifer and I have two cats. I adopted my cats at ACC in SF and upstate NY. Simba was 5 month old kitten and Shelby was two years old (She was a difficult cat to socialize with other animals and I worked really hard with her and now she’s able to socialize with my other cat). My pets are currently seniors and are in good shape.

I’m a certified Cat Behaviorist and I’m truly passionate about cats. Some of my regular clients call me “Mary Poppins” since I always bring toys and games for the cats in my purse!

I’m a certified Cat Behaviorist and I’m truly passionate about cats. Some of my regular clients call me “Mary Poppins” since I always bring toys and games for the cats in my purse!

My hobbies are: get a cup of coffee& read a book, playtime with my kitties, writing and urban hikes in SF.

I also love taking pictures (see my pics in the profile) and videos so I will send you tons of them!🐱 🐈‍⬛

Since I moved to SF I've been taking care of cats all the time (friend's cats and clients) so the kittens will be in good hands.

I was also a volunteer at SPCA and ACC for a few years in San Francisco and I have more than 10 years of experience with cats. I know how to give medication, make them exercise, play with them and I'm very patient to sit down and wait until they're ready to interact with me.

I live in Pacific Heights and I'm fully vaccinated. I do not have a car but I can walk everywhere, bike, or take public transportation.

I hope to meet you and your best friend soon! 🐱 🐈 🐈‍⬛

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I’ve been working with cats my whole life. I was a volunteer with cats at SPCA SF for 2 years and I was treating cats with difficult behaviors and working with them so people could adopt them 🐱. I also own 2 cats and I have experience administering medicine. I’ve been working with Meowtel over 2 years and doing private cat sitting for 10 years.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy playing with them, taking beautiful pictures that will be wonderful memories for the owners and I having a special connection with them. Every kitten I meet becomes my friend and I ‘d love to see my regular clients ofter and get updates of them. Cats mean a lot to me.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Jenny watched my cat for two weeks while I was on vacation, and I couldn't have asked for better care. She stopped by regularly to play with and check on my kitty, and sent tons of photos and videos along the way, which honestly made my trip even better. It felt like my cat was on her own little vacation too. I always thought of my cat as shy, but apparently not with Jenny. She'd greet Jenny at the door every single time, which says a lot. What really stood out was how attentive Jenny was. When I got a notification that my cat's water fountain had stopped working, I asked her to take a look since she was already coming by, and she showed up early to check on it. That kind of responsiveness means everything when you're away from home. I trust Jenny with my cat completely, and I'd recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. <3

Jennifer did a great job with my senior kitty! She was so knowledgeable about feline behavior and was very patient with him after he had just lost his littermate. She was very communicative throughout my trip. Will definitely book again!

Jenny is a lovely person and clearly a cat whisperer! My cat bonded with her immediately at our first meeting. She was very conscientious about obtaining and following instructions for feeding, meds, etc. and sent me detailed reports and pictures every time she visited. My cat seemed happy with her - he does not always welcome new people but he was playing with her and accepting pats. We will definitely use Jenny again!

Jennifer is an absolute delight! This was her first time taking care of our cat, Gibson, and everything went exceptionally well. She was incredibly accommodating, arranging the pre-visit and sending us plenty of wonderful pictures and updates throughout our trip. You can tell that she cares about animals, Gibson seemed to love her

Jennifer was fantastic, super thorough and showered our kitties with lots of love and care. Her pictures and videos were better than the ones we take ourselves and helped us feel a little closer to them during our trip.

  • More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.

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 Francisco cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $40.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
