Learn More About Will

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

My process begins with our in person meet & greet. I present myself in a professional manner because I take all opportunity I get very seriously. Your animals are your partner pokemon like Ash with Pikachu. As I enter your home, I'll have my notebook. I'll ask questions as we go indepth with your cats personality. Once our meet & greet is over I reorganize my notes. I send my notes back to the cat parent to make sure I heard everything correctly. I do this to give my clients peace of mind, letting them know I listened intensively to every detail. My goal is to put you at ease knowing that your cats are being provided the excellent care they deserve.

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

My mindset for handling cats with all different types of personalities is to mirror similar energy. For example, if a cat is shy I'll go to ground level so there isn't a towering presence above them. I'd follow up by sitting quietly near them so they can see me. Once they feel I'm not a threat, I'll start inching my way closer or I'll wait til they come closer to me. Depending how comfortable they become, I'll slowly reach out my hand and follow their lead. Some cats need a bit more patience than others, sometimes it can be a slow process. One of the greatest feelings is when a shy animal gives you their complete trust. I will never disrespect a cats space. I'm a guest in your home so the highest level of respect is very important to establish trust.

Will watched our cats for a week. The cats adored him, and he gave them a lot of love. He also went above and beyond and watered our plants and kept the apartment very clean. As an added bonus, he sent us some amazing photos of the kitties. Would highly recommend Will!

This is the third time Will has looked after Mochi and Tofu for 10 days, and I have complete confidence in him. Naturally, we all worry about unexpected situations, but as long as it’s within Will’s ability to handle, I know he’s fully capable. He’s competent in every respect.

Will is our Go-To Catsitter whenever we go out of town and I feel so comforted that someone so kind and responsible is with my babies while I'm away. He always sends diligent reports and amazing cat photos. Will takes such good care of the kitties and I think they really enjoy his chill presence. 💜💜💜

Will has been a dream to work with! He took copious notes during our initial meet and greet to ensure he knew how to care for our three cats. it was clear upon meeting that he is a conscientious and thoughtful caregiver. Will was very patient with our super shy tuxedo cat. The updates were thorough, and Will made sure everything was neat and tidy before leaving. Would love to work with him in the future and definitely recommend him to any other cat parents.

We cannot recommend Will enough. This is the third time Will comes to take care of our cat-kids, and again, we came back home to happy cats. This time we had an unexpected delay in our flight, so we couldn’t return home the day we promised. Will agreed to take care of Anubis and Bastet immediately. That was such but SUCH a relief. Will is someone thay you can trust you kitties with. He’s responsible, fun, creative, great communicator and super dedicated. You won’t have to wonder how your kids are because you’ll be thoroughly updated about them. Lots of pics, videos and messages about how they are doing. In summary, go with Will, he’s the ultimate cat whisperer!

Will was amazing with our cat Henry! We have booked reservations with Will multiple times now because of how much Henry loves him. You can really tell how much Will enjoys interacting with cats by the amount of creativity he puts into each of his visits. His photos and videos are both artistic and entertaining, and I could tell that Henry was having a great time. Henry loves foraging for treats, and Will found increasingly clever places to hide treats to challenge him. Thank you Will for understanding our boy!

Will was amazing with our two kitties! We knew upon meeting him that he truly loves cats and felt very comfortable leaving them in his care. Will made note of everything discussed in our meet & greet and made sure to review his notes with us to make sure nothing was missed. He sent wonderfully detailed updates and photos of our kitties and we could tell from the photos that they loved the attention and play time! Will left our home tidy and cleaned up after our cats above and beyond what we asked for. We will definitely be hiring Will again!

Maybe you are wondering why Will has perfect 5 starts in ALL his reviews. That’s because he’s just AMAZING. I’ve never seen someone so respectful of my kitties. He truly takes care of every detail and makes sure the kitties are happy, following their routines and all given instructions. Will is a great person. Easygoing, caring, super responsible and very sympathetic. The only concern you will have is that your kitty might miss him after the visits are over. I cannot recommend him enough! This is the second time we book him and I wouldn’t trust my kitties to anyone else. Do you want to enjoy your time away knowing your kitties will be happy once you are back? Book Will, you won’t regret it 😻😻

Thank you, Will! This is our second reservation with Will and our longest cat-sitting reservation till date. We were completely stress-free knowing Will was going to be taking care of our cat. Will takes care of all the regular tasks like litter box, food and water refresh but goes a step further to let us know if our cat has been eating consistently and well. Our sometimes-shy cat really likes his company, even lap-sitting, and he takes great photos of what she is up to, which he sends in his detailed updates. We would heartily recommend Will's cat-sitting services.

Will was a godsend for my high needs cat! I haven’t been comfortable leaving him in the past since he needs medication twice a day but now that I have Will as a sitter, I can rest at ease. My cat is shy and he took to Will right away and Will was able to give his medication with ease. Will also went above and beyond to spend time with him, sent awesome photos and very detailed updates which I loved. You can tell Will is passionate about cats and really loves them 🥰.

Faith in humanity restored! Will took great care of Anubis and Bastet. We found both of our kitties super happy when we returned home. Will made very detailed notes during our meet and greet. He went over all aspects of all routines and made sure to do things the way we do them. Anubis is a very picky eater. It usually takes us around 30 mins of dedicated attention to make him eat. Thus, he usually eats very little when someone else is taking care of him. However, Will was able to make him finish both of his meals every day. I was shocked! (and grateful) He was sending several pictures and videos of every visit. Not just one picture, as other cat sitters do. We were also messaging him during the visits and he was responsive. We truly recommend him. If you are looking for someone to take care of your kitty, Will is the person. Look no further!

This was the first time we asked someone other than our friends to look after our cat. A coworker recommended Will as an outstanding expert, so I sort of knew what to expect, but our experience exceeded all our expectations. Will is a real magician when it comes to dealing with cats. Our naturally shy cat even asked Will for belly rubs! Updates were always very detailed. And any photo update from Will is a true work of art! We really enjoyed our mini vacation knowing that our cat was in such good hands. We will be definitely coming for more.

This was our second trip with Will as cat-sitter, and our first international one. Like I put in my March review, I would give more than 5 stars if that were possible. Both of our female kitties have anxiety issues that can cause behavioral and health problems when we leave them alone for more than a day or so, but Will worked patiently with each of them separately to help them overcome their stress. He did this without being asked, I might add! We found two happy, healthy kitties when we got back, with none of the furniture damage/pottying outside the litter box/etc. that we’ve seen on previous trips. Will is a true cat-whisperer!

I wish I could give Will higher than 5 stars. My husband and I don't typically travel very much, but this past March we were doing a national speaking tour for our new book. We didn't feel super great about our first cat sitter (came recommended by a friend), and at the end of our second trip we came home to find the condo in shambles, the cats traumatized and underfed, and the litterbox atrocious. Unfortunately we ONLY HAD 48 HOURSE til our next flight... Enter Will...he: 1) answered my harried online inquiry within about 30 min even though I sent it AFTER 8 pm on a Wednesday night. 2) Scheduled a complementary meet/greet with. my kitties, and was very responsive and careful to accommodate their distinctive personalities even at the first meeting (one's extremely shy, the other's shy and aggressive) 3)Showed up with a notebook full of notes he'd copied off the online profiles I'd created for them, and continued to take notes the entire visit 3) Once we were gone, we got texts WITH PHOTOS, as well as after-visit summaries, for each visit, even though he was coming by morning and evening (they''re timed feeders) 4) He was very careful to check in about their emotional wellbeing and check which behaviors were normal for them and which might be signs of distress 5) He also asked about their favorite kinds of music/toys/treats to socialize with them during his visit and in a million other ways went above and beyond (including cleaning up hairballs/ cat vomit) And best of alll, drumroll please....the litterbox looked fantastic

Will was so great! He always gave detailed updates on his visits and shared nice pictures and videos. He was quick to respond to messages and happy to accept alternate ideas when discussing unexpected kitty issues. He was respectful of our home and the cats and was eventually able to win all three shy cats over with his patience and kindness. They were all lying on his lap eventually! On our initial meet-and-greet, he was attentive and took great notes to ensure he understood what we hoped and needed. Will also cleaned up and vacuumed our place before we returned home, so it was cleaner than it had ever felt with previous sitters. Thanks so much for all your great work and help, Will!

We were hesitant to leave our seven month old cat alone with a stranger. Will did an amazing job of collecting information about our cat domino before we left on our trip Domino warmed up to him immediately and we felt so at ease going out of town. His updates were above and beyond ; his care for Domino was incredible. We paid for him to stay overnight for three days because our cat is very social and it was wonderful to get pictures of Domino cuddling with Will. We can tell by the pictures and videos that Domino had a blast. Will even alerted us to a problem with domino so we can take him to the vet, nothing urgent. And I don’t think I met such an amazing, kind, thoughtful human being in a long time. He’s the type of person you just want to spend time with. Thank you Will. We will choose no other cat sitter but you going forward. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Will was wonderful and caring with my cat. He paid attention to every little detail. He was also willing to change some days last minute which I really appreciated. Thank you Will!

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.
