I'm Kristie | Cat Sitting in San Jose, CA
I adore cats and know how special they are! I came to Meowtel probably for the same reason as you - I wanted a service specializing in cats. I have my own (Puck) who I strive to take care of in the best possible ways, to ensure both his physical health/longevity as well as his happiness. He's not the first cat I've had either but the 3rd in my life. And not only do I love cats and have experience with them as an owner, but I've also personally studied cat behavior and I am well-versed on what should and shouldn't be done, what dangers to watch out for, etc.; some people expect cats to just be like dogs and end up getting frustrated with them, but I understand cats to be a very separate and unique animal and they should be respected as such. (I highly recommend the book Think Like a Cat by Pam Johnson-Bennett for any cat owner!) And along with objective knowledge, I give ...

Kristie's Reviews
Yvette
Kristie was absolutely fantastic with Domino and T-Rex! She took care of our two fur babies for two overnighters, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She sent updates, photos, and made sure our cats were comfortable and well-fed. It was such a relief to know our pets were in good hands while we were away. Highly recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions
San Jose cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $41.00. 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.
