Anke's Reviews
Miguel
Anke was very professional and experienced. She rose to the challenges of my senior cats and was able to provide the special care they needed (including oral medications for a spicy tortie). She was also diligent about fulfilling the special requests I had. Anke's communication was very responsive. From general communications to the status updates each visit, I never felt like she was unreachable. I will definitely be going back to Anke in the future!

Anke is wonderful looking after my shy feral cat and her friends. I appreciate the photo updates so I know she’s doing ok while I’m traveling. Anke is also very kind about coming early since my cat likes an early breakfast. This is my second time booking with Anke, and I will certainly do so again for future cat sitting needs. Many thanks!
Don
I was away for two weeks and I chose Anke to take care of my two nine-year-old cats, Sawyer and Kate . Anke came every morning and followed my instructions reliably. She scooped the litter box, swept the litter off the floor, changed their water, and played with Sawyer. Kate was shy and stayed in the closet or under the bed most days, but finally came out toward the end of the two weeks. Anke did a terrific job caring for my cats. I highly recommend her, and plan to use her the next time I'm out of town.

Anke was above and beyond what I expected from a cat sitter. She was prompt, took great photos, and communicated well when an unexpected situation arose. I would book her again in the future.
Serendi
Anke was fantastic at taking care of my cat while I was out of town. She was thorough and careful with all the care requests and was also adaptable when we needed to add a last minute medication change. She sent so many great photos and videos not only of my cat but also of food, water, litter box, etc to ensure I was up to date on care. Thank you Anke for being super helpful in taking care of my senior cat!

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
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 $37.00. 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.
