Jess is an incredible kitty sitter! it was our first time leaving our kitty and I can’t imagine anyone better to watch him. Jess sent fabulous pictures of playtime and cuddles, and it was clear when we got back home that Yeti loved his time with her!

Jessica is amazing in so many ways, managing fussy eaters, play and snuggle time, kitty box maintenance. My cats adore her and are typically skittish. She also takes awesome photos! She’s very house conscious (lights on and off, locking doors on long trips). I recommend her highly!

Jess was an absolute dream. My cat is EXTREMELY feral and can’t stand 99% of people. Jess is the 1%!! My cat warmed up very quickly. Jess was also very careful administering my cats insulin. She is not only the best cat sitter I’ve experienced, but also just a very kind and caring person 🙏.

Jessica was really wonderful with my two young, high energy cats while I was gone for 10 days. She sent picture and video updates every day of playtime and food fill ups, and my cats were happy when I returned. I will definitely book with her again!

Jessica was an amazing sitter for my 11 year old cat Callie. She gave me updates each time she visited, letting me know that Callie had her meds, she was fed, and had her litter box cleaned. I loved the videos and pictures that she sent and look forward to having her sit in the future!

Frequently Asked Questions
Reservations officially begin at 12:00 AM in the sitter's time zone on the start date. Cat Parents may cancel within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund, as long as the reservation has not yet started. After the first 24 hours, the following cancellation rules apply:
- 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 $37.00. 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!

Jessica was great and took purrfect care of my elderly princess. When we don't get someone to stay with my cat, she can get very unhappy (meaning peeing where she shouldn't!) but Annie was happy and healthy when we returned, thrilled to have someone who snuggled with her while she was sleeping.

Jess is amazing! She has the rare combo of being organized, prompt, and detail oriented along with a warm, caring, fun and playful approach. Our two kitties adore her and it usually takes some time for them to warm up to new people. The impact of us being away was less than zero! We received photos and videos every day and a quick follow up letting us know what was done and the house was secure. We recommend Jess highly and will certainly use. Her again. ❤️

Jess is the absolute best cat-sitter we’ve ever had for our 16-year old Maybelline. She sent us status updates and photos every day and went above and beyond. We are so grateful for her kind care while we were away.
Danielle

Jess was absolutely wonderful! She sent detailed descriptions of the visits and plenty of pictures, and went above and beyond for my shy old kitty! I don’t know how she managed to befriend my nervous girl but she did! She’s a miracle worker!

Jessica is the most reliable person. She consistently goes above and beyond. She lets me know each day what time she plans to come over, what she did with Rembrandt, and always lots of photos and videos. I trust her and I always have a better trip when I know she is checking in on Rembrandt, playing with him, and making sure he is at ease.
Brooke

Jessica was everything we could have asked for in a sitter and more! She sent updates each day to let us know she was heading over to feed the girls, followed by tons of super cute photos and videos of the girls playing and eating etc. We would feel very lucky to book Jess again in the future.
Julie

Jessica is amazing, very thoughtful and reliable. She took such good care of our kittens while we were away for a few days. She sent us pictures everyday of our little furry babies and answered all our questions rapidly. It was our first experience with Meowtel and it was a really great one!! Thank you Jessica!

This was the first time we had ever gotten a cat-sitter for our cat, Sage, and we could not have had a better experience! Jess was excellent, sending frequent communication with pictures/videos of our fur baby whenever she stopped by. She did everything we asked for and more, and I felt very comfortable having her in our home. I will definitely be booking with Jess again!

This was our first cat sitting experience and Jess put us and our cat at complete ease! She was incredibly communicative and the photos and videos she sent were the highlight of our days away! Our shy cat warmed up to her so quickly—will definitely have Jess care for our fur baby again!

Jess is the best cat sitter I’ve ever had! She is really communicative and sends photos and videos every single visit! I felt at ease that my cat was well taken care of when I was on vacation! I would definitely book her again!

Jessica is amazing. She indicates when she is on her way, she sends a lot of videos and pictures each day, she gives a rundown of what she did during the visit, and tells me how my cat is doing! I have had a lot of sitters in the past, and Jessica makes me feel most at ease about leaving my anxious cat. I went on a 2 week trip and there was no drop in the consistency of her care. I will definitely rebook.

Jessica is an amazing cat sitter all around! Fast in responding, flexible, she asked great questions during the introductory visit, and was so so amazing in keeping us updated during our vacation every time she visited our fur babies, with texts and pictures/videos. I highly recommend her and will definitely book her again!

Jessica is a great sitter-she not only does what she says when she says it but most importantly is is cat whisperer. Jess got Poncho to come in and hang out with her very quickly even the first time when Poncho did not know her.

Jess was such a fantastic cat sitter! She first came over for a meet and greet which reassured us that our cats would be taken care of. We received text updates, photos and videos of our cats every day which we loved. The next time we need a sitter we know exactly who we will be asking
