Anke's Reviews
Sarah
Anke was simply wonderful! She took excellent care of our two kittens, sending photos and videos, updating us on how they’re doing and staying in communication everyday. Anke followed my instructions on refilling the automatic feeders, cleaning the litter boxes, and letting air into the house. She made being away from our kitties much easier. I highly recommend her because not only is she reliable, Anke has the most cheerful, loving personality towards our kittens. From her videos, I could tell that they love her and that they were very happy and stimulated while we were away.
Chalise
Anke was AMAZING! Above and beyond with watching our adult cat, Grizzly. He immediately fell in love with her and was so happy every time she visited. Anke sent daily messages with updates, multiple photos, and videos. She even did more cleaning than expected because our guy gets litter everywhere! Seriously- Anke was incredible and I’m SO happy to have found her! Thank you thank you thank you!
Isaac
Anke was an incredible cat sitter—thoughtful, communicative, reliable, and very kind to our weird cat. Our cat takes a while to warm up to new people, and Anke put in the time and effort to become her new best friend. I was traveling internationally and accidentally gave Anke the wrong code to get into our house on Day 1. She called and messaged, but I was fast asleep on the other side of the world. Rather than leave, Anke stayed and played with our cat through the window so she still got some attention. Once I got back to her with the correct code, she went first thing in the morning to ensure our cat was happy and fed. I’ll definitely be using Anke’s services again. 10/10. A+. 100%.

Anke was great, sending me many photos, and was also helpful in visiting at the time my cat is used to getting food. I was able to relax and enjoy visiting my family because I my cat was being taken care of. The next time I need a cat sitter, I will definitely be a return customer!

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 $38.00. 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.
