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

Hello Cat Parents: I'm taking new requests for kitty sitting beginning October. My name is Angelica and I am an experienced and dedicated cat caretaker. πŸˆπŸˆβ€β¬›πŸ§Ά Allow me to be your partner this October or for Thanksgiving ensuring your cats are content and cared for in the coziest of environments - their own home. 🏑🐱🀝 My years of previous experience as a vet tech helped me to develop skill in reading cat behavior very well. Personally, I can recognize the "velcro" kind of kitty from those who need their space. Plus, I recognize kitties who fall somewhere in-between. πŸ’Š I comfortably administer medications: - eye drops - insulin - oral medications -topical medications On top of my years of service in veterinary medicine as a profession, I have cared for cats my entire life. Growing up with cats and dogs by my side I'd love to help care for your cat and give you the ease and confidence to...

Learn More About Angelica

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

I've been cat sitting as a part time occupation for 7 years. I was a vet tech for an overlapping period of time and have worked for a University Vet Hospital in the Oncology Department, as well as at the Humane Society, and in Primary Care.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Seeing cats of all ages and with such unique and varied personalities.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

One of my favorite cat sitting stories comes from a shy cat named Bean 🫘 Bean would hide under the covers of his human's bed every day but when I came around offering play time and socializing he felt so comfortable and allowed me to read him books, offer him kicker toys marinated in catnip, and many times he had reserve energy to scale his cat tree with leaps and bounds. Every memory with Bean the cat is a happy one!

I was nervous leaving the kitties as this was my first time being away from them this long and I've never hired a cat sitter before. But after meeting Angelica in person, you too will find she is sweet, kind, gentle and patient. The best decision I made was hiring Angelica to watch my babies while we went on a 10 day cruise. I had her pop in every few days and after each visit we received a wonderful update and pictures that made us laugh and smile. We literally looked forward to getting her updates, we would stop and gather around to read her updates together. My only regret was not hiring her for more visits because the updates and photos were just so awesome and I loved seeing how much my kitties trusted her which set my heart at ease. I highly recommend Angelica 🐾😺

Angelica was so thoughtful and sent very thorough notes (as well as photos and videos!) which really eased my anxiety about leaving my younger cat, as it was her first time going more than a few hours without any human family member at home. I was worried about whether the cats would eat, so she sent me photos and specific updates about that which I really appreciate.

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 $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.
