Cat Sitting in San Jose, CA

I was born and raised in San Jose, CA but moved to Portland, OR where I lived for about 20 years. I just moved back to San Jose to be closer to my family and enjoying the amazing weather and beaches here :)

Cats always get a bad rep for being mean and unloving. But when I fell in love with my first cat, I knew I would never go back to being a dog person again. They both seek and give love to us. That’s why we want to give them the best care and attention, especially while we’re away.

I now own 2 amazing kitties that mean the world to me and am the one that you can trust to look after your own little kitties.


Outside of work, I like to go to EDM music festivals and raves, tennis, longboarding, hiking, indoor rock climbing, and binge watch tv shows and anime.

NOTE** : If you see that I’m unavailable on certain days, feel free to contact me and I can see if I can accommodate. Typically I could be completely booked those days but can be flexible and squeeze you in.

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

I’ve been cat sitting for about 3 and a half years now with over 300 reservations completed on Meowtel. I’ve also cat sitters for friends prior.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

All kitties are different but I enjoy getting to know every single one of them and their unique personalities. I also love playing and petting them and hearing their purring sound 🥰

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 2 kitties named Luna (F) and Buu (M). Luna is a feisty black cat who loves butt scratches but hates being picked up. She loves to sleep on top of you and loves to play. She’s not shy to strangers. Buu is grey kitty and is the little baby of the family and is quite spoiled by Luna. Always eager to play and demands food 24/7. He’s shy to people at first but quickly warms up to you.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Typically a good indicator for the right sitter for your kitty is during the meet and greet. See if your cat likes them, given that they are not shy kitties. Check how patient the sitter is with them and if they’re taking notes on the care routine and making sure every aspect of the care is covered during the meet up.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I’m careful with opening and closing the doors as I know some cats are eager to dash right outside. As I enter, I crack the door open and leave my foot through the crack to prevent any kitties from passing. I would look inside the home to see where they are and if it is clear enough for me to fully come in. For when I’m leaving, I make sure the cats are a distance away from the door. I don’t open the door wide either but just enough for me to go through.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available to cat sit on most holidays. Christmas week may be limited so it’s best to book me ahead of time.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I have a lot of experience handing shy and anxious kitties. I don’t rush to approach them. Rather I give the kitty some space and time to get comfortable with me and it may take a few days for some kitties. I condition them with treats when I get closer and that helps build trust.

This month

Tiffany came to my home for our first session, and I immediately saw her genuine love for cats. When I showed her the backyard feeding area for my little group of stray cats, one of my strays, Punto, was outside. Tiffany immediately started gently walking toward him to try to gain his trust. No other cat sitter I’ve had ever did that — they would simply ignore my cats if they happened to see them. Punto usually runs away from strangers, but this time he paused at a distance and started rolling on the ground — something he does when he feels happy and comfortable. I think he sensed her kindness too. I look forward to working with Tiffany and will feel much more at ease leaving my home and my beloved cats in her care.

This was my second experience working with Tiffany and she was as impressive as ever. She went above and beyond to help my cats come out of their shells and trust her, and gave me daily updates so I knew they were safe, with photos and videos!

We hired Tiffany to look after our 3.5-year-old cat while we were away for the weekend, and she was absolutely wonderful! Because our cat was adopted recently, he can be a bit of a classic "scaredy-cat" around new environments and sudden changes. We were fully prepared for him to hide the entire time, but Tiffany has a true gift with cats. She was so patient and gentle that she managed to get him to completely warm up and take to her! Beyond her amazing cat-whispering skills, she took incredible photos during her updates, which gave us immense peace of mind while we were away. She was friendly, incredibly easy to work with, and followed all of our home instructions perfectly. We cannot recommend her highly enough and will definitely be booking her again for future trips!

This was our first time hiring a catsitter and we were so anxious, but Tiffany was absolutely wonderful. She came to visit to learn all about our cats, and during our time away, sent us daily photos of the cats and how they were doing. When we came home, the cats were happy and healthy. Thank you!

This was our second time with Tiffany and she was amazing as usual! My husband had some last minute packages delivered, and she was so thorough—bringing them in from both our porch as well as our garage. She coaxed my shy cat to eat from her hand and played with my friendly ones with the games they liked. She gave very detailed updates and took plenty of pictures of my little kitties which gave me so much comfort while I was away from them. She is probably the best catsitter I have ever had, both on this platform and separately!

Tiffany took great care of my cats over a few visits – one of whom needs medication twice a day to control their seizures. She had no issue administering their medication, and was able to work with their dosing schedule. Her comfortability and care for cats overall is evident in the way she spends time with them during visits and in the lovely pictures and visit notes she provides. We are looking forward to our next visits with Tiffany, and I’m very grateful to have her watch over them as I know my babies are in great hands.

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

San Jose cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $39.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet!
