Nikki is the best! My fur baby adored her and it was such a comfort when I was gone to know that he was in such good care. When I came home, he was happy and non-anxious meaning he did not have the separation anxiety he usually has. Highly recommend Nikki as a sitter!

Nikki is very responsive and took good care of my kitty while I was away. Gave him love, attention, cuddles, and kept him in his routine while I was away, so it made him less anxious when I got home. She sent great daily updates and gave me peace of mind so I could enjoy my trip fully.

Nikki did such an amazing job looking after our two senior kitties for a few days. She made sure to check in with us during each visit and send pictures to help us feel at ease that our cats were well taken care of and happy in our absence. We will for sure keep her in mind next time we need a sitter. Highly recommend!

Nikki has a wonderful positive gentle energy with cats and also with humans. She was very flexible with our chaotic schedule, and a great communicator. We felt so safe trusting out delicate hairless kitties with her.

Our kitties love Nikki, and just as importantly she loves them back. We have now had Nikki watch our kitties twice for two-week stretches, and we wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch them again. She sends great daily updates with photos that keep us connected to our little furr babies. We trust her with our kitties and home.

Nikki is awesome and I would 100% love to have her come stay with the kitties again! She did a two week overnight stay, and everything went super smooth from the moment the reservation was initiated! Nikki is super speedy with comms, and sent daily updates on Charlie and Olive while we were gone. She was sooooo good with the cats and you can tell she loves being around them! It was very easy to communicate with her, and I appreciated how she initiated planning a meet and greet a couple of weeks prior to us leaving. This made me feel super comfortable. We came home to two happy kitties and a clean home. This was my first time booking with a pet sitting app, and I will definitely do it again for future trips! Thank you Nikki for everything!!

Nikki was excellent. She bonded with our shy little kitty right away, was very conscientious about feeding, and spent extra time at our house to give her the playtime every kitten needs. Hope to have her back soon.

Nikki was very sweet and got along very well with my cat. She stayed overnight and helped my cat deal with my absence. I have a long list of instructions for taking care of my cat and Nikki was able to handle all of it with no issues. She was very communicative and I felt at ease being away from my cat with all the photos she sent.

Nikki was wonderful!!! She took care of our cat for a few days around Christmas, and she did a fantastic job. Our shy cat Mango LOVED Nikki, and we loved looking at all of the pictures Nikki would send in her updates. Nikki was very timely with her responses, a perfect communicator, and was overall a pleasure to work with. We are definitely looking forward to working with her again!

We could not have been happier with our whole experience with Nikki and Meowtel. We had never left our kitties for more than a week, and we knew that a drop-in cat sitter would not be enough companionship for our little fur babies, so we really wanted an overnight sitter. Nikki provided the peace of mind that we needed. She kept us updated regularly with photos and it was clear the kitties enjoyed her company, bonded with her, and were loved in our absence. Nikki left the house spotless and in order for our return. We will definitely use Nikki and Meowtel again.

Our cats are senior- rescue kitties. We felt guilty going on holiday until we met Nikki. Nikki immediately put our fears and worry at ease, kept us posted daily with behavior, and photo check ins, and made the entire experience very very positive and allowed us to o have a fabulous holiday. We are so grateful for her, she’s a true and trustworthy gem with your kitty angels! 😻

I had to cancel at the last minute, but Nikki was very nice and concerned about kitty who had gotten sick. I kept reservation and paid her because she did meet with us and was prompt and polite and I would have left my kitties with her, before one needed emergency care (then she needs her mommy, not a babysitter) :) I have zero concerns and would use her again and hopefully actually go that time!

Really enjoyed having Nikki take care of our little one. She was a pro, and like the other reviews mention, the apartment was cleaner than when we left it. I've already booked Nikki for another visit, and hope that everyone is as lucky as we are to have someone so trustworthy and wonderful to care for their animals. Thanks Nikki!

Nikki was an ideal sitter for our kitties - I knew from the enthusiastic reaction she had during our virtual meet and greet that she was going to give them the attention they deserved! She sent tons of live photos of our cats and was attentive to the instructions we left, taking care to give one of our boys his pill both in the morning and evening. Our most shy cat apparently walked up to her right away - a ringing endorsement! Thanks again Nikki!

I really appreciated that Nikki was prompt with her responses and as the other reviewers have already said, she was friendly, reliable and communicative. She was also super flexible, as my request was a made on the same week as my departure since one of my normal sitters was out of town. My cat, who requires a lot of playtime due to kitty separation anxiety, was in a great mood when I returned from my weekend trip and I love that Nikki gave her TLC while I was gone. I definitely would book Nikki again should my cat need a sitter again.

Up front and early communication on my first reservation. Clear updates and photos of my cat during her overnight stay. Easy piece of mind that Nikki was the right person to have in my home looking after my cat. She's the first person I reach out to on Meowtel now.

AMAZING!!! Nikki is truly THE BEST!!! I went out of town for two weeks and came home to two of the happiest, softest (they got TONS of love!) most well-adjusted kitties I had ever seen. Nikki truly has a magic touch!! As a crazy-cat-lady, I KNOW when my kitties have been well taken care of and it SHOWS!! Not only that, but Nikki kept me updated daily with pictures and texts to let me know my babies were happy and in safe hands. What a relief for a stressy mom! I've never been away from them this long and Nikki put my heart and mind at ease every step of the way. Plus I came home to some VERY happy little furballs- the TRUE sign of a good cat sitter! I can't believe my luck at having found Nikki, especially after years of trying to find someone who was able to stay over at my place! You will be SO glad you booked Nikki!!

Featured Cat Sitters Near San Francisco, CA

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.
