I'm Angelina | Cat Sitting in San Jose, CA

Hi fellow cat parents, I've always been very passionate about caring for animals and contributing to my community. I've been fortunate enough to be constantly surrounded by animals at home, through volunteer work and through other rescue endeavors. I've had animals be a part of my family my entire life. I currently have 2 bunnies, 2 cats and 1 dog (3 of the 5 animals are rescues). I've always wanted to work with animals and maybe make it my career and here's my purrfect opportunity to get a fresh start. My prior work experience is mostly in administration (10+ years) and care-giving. I'm used to proving support in multiple fields (i.e. finance, medical, high-tech and more). I enjoy learning new things and being able to contribute to society in a meaningful way. When I was in-between jobs in the past I've been asked to babysit, take care of elderly, house-sit and pet-sit. I'm a very responsible and caring nurturer and an empath. I view animals as my fur babies and provide them with the best care possible. I have also dedicated countless hours volunteering at animal shelters, mostly working with cats, in the last 15 years. I have experience socializing shy cats/kittens, administering medic...

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

Professionally, I've been working with Meowtel for a little over a year. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for the last 15 years or so. I've also had pets my entire life (cats, dogs, bunnies).

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Meeting like-minded fur baby parents, who go the extra mile for their beloved companions. It's a great community to be a part of. I also love interacting with the different kitties, they melt my heart with their constant affection and fun personalities. I feel like it's a mutually beneficial experience for all the parties involved: the kitties fill my heart with joy and I help them feel better about their loved ones being away and the parents can enjoy their time away knowing that their fur baby is in good hands.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes, I have two kitties: Klusha (tabby who I found in the bush in my neighborhood 12 years ago) and Kuzya (my mom's fur baby who is almost 3 years old, pure bread Siberian). Both are a great joy to have around, they have completely polar opposite personalities. Lots to learn from both of them.

Angelina was a life-saver. My dad had to suddenly go to the hospital with COVID and I needed to find a cat-sitter immediately for his 1 indoor cat and 2 outdoor cats (I'm across the country). Angelina responded quickly and was able to help us out on super short notice. The indoor cat, Zander, is very shy and timid, and she got him to come out and spend some time with her, which was amazing. She also went above and beyond by bringing her own litter scoop since my dad's electric litter box was broken. Her communication was great and I'm so grateful she could help us out in this difficult situation. Definitely plan to use her again for when my Dad is healthy again and wants to travel.

Angelina was amazing with our senior cats while we went on a long trip abroad. She spent quality time with them and gave us loads of updates and was super flexible in scheduling while we were planning our trip. We will absolutely use her for all our future trips!

Our cat had such a good experience with Angelina, and we did too. When we had our meet and greet she asked additional question about the house and our cat (Arthur) that I did not think to address. We found her to be extremely observant of how our cat was feeling and behaving. Arthur loved spending time with her. Our daily updates included photos of Arthur’s daily care routines along with his happy time pictures of petting and playing. I couldn’t believe how clean Angelina kept the sink, food and litter areas. Anytime I contacted her she responded immediately. We all were so happy to have Angelina watch our cat while we were away.

Angelina was awesome. She gave my kitty his insulin shot twice a day. She also really cared for him. She was so worried that he was shy one day but kept in constant contact with me. He was simply having an "off day" and it was not a big deal but it meant a lot to me that she not only kept in contact but actually visited twice to check up on him the same day. She went beyond my expectations and really cared for my baby. Highly recommended!

Angelina took great care of Leela and sent me frequent updates and photos. I definitely recommend her: best cat-sitter ever! :)

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.
