I'm Anika | Cat Sitting in San Francisco, CA

Greetings, fellow cat lovers! I'm Anika, a proud cat mom who has been reveling in the joy of feline companionship for over three wonderful years. My journey with cats began with a whiskered friend who waltzed into my life and stole my heart, and since then, I've never looked back. With three adorable furballs of my own, I've experienced firsthand the boundless love, quirky personalities, and endless entertainment that cats bring into our lives. For me, there's nothing quite as fulfilling as meeting new cats and uncovering the intricacies of their individual purr-sonalities. Each cat is a unique being with their own set of quirks, preferences, and charm, and I relish every opportunity to forge meaningful connections with them. Whether it's earning the trust of a shy feline or engaging in spirited play with an energetic kitten, I approach every interaction with patience, empathy, and genuine affection. Currently, I'm immersing myself in the world of interview preparation, diligently studying and honing my skills for the next chapter of my career. But amidst the hustle and bustle of job hunting, there's always time for a much-needed fel...

Anika was very flexible and accommodating with any requests I had. What's most important is that my cats loved her!

Anika was affectionate and took good care of my kitty during the week I away. Except for a misunderstanding on some instructions that we solved by text, everything went well.

Response from Anika on Dec 7, 2024 "Sorry for trying to communicate for Margarida! Leaving a disgustingly dirty water fountain and full trash room were neither part of the instructions nor my fault. If you don’t like being contacted while away, please let your sitter know beforehand!"

Anika was an incredible caretaker for my cat while I was away. She was incredibly communicative and sent a lot of updates of her playing and cuddling with my kitty. It made me feel incredibly at ease while I was away!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

If you are not fully satisfied with your sitter after the Meet & Greet or during the reservation, please call 1-844-636-9835 so we can help you re-book with a new sitter to ensure we can deliver on our purrfect hospitality promise.

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 $42.00. 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.
