Learn More About Isabel

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

I have been cat sitting for close friends and family since I was little, as well as more professionally using petsitting platforms. I love meeting new cats and cat parents, and sharing the love of cats! I have been around cats all my life, and I have experience with all sorts of petsitting , but my favorite has to be cat-sitting. I understand it can be stressful leaving your fur babies, so I will always try my best to minimize that stress as much as possible by giving your kitties all the attention they need while your away!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have one adorable calico named pumpkin :) My roommate and I got her when she was a kitten and now she is already almost 2 years old , time moves so fast! She loves playing with string and hair ties , taking naps, and she can even play fetch!

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

I understand that cats can sometimes be very timid, and that we have to earn their trust. If a kitty is hiding because he/she is anxious or scared I will give them the space that they need to eventually come say hi. I’m always ok with offering some treats/ toys if needed :) fyi: some people call me a cat whisperer 🐈😊

Isabel was attentive and communicative while we were out of town for several days. Our cats with anxiety in our new home appreciated the overnight stays and playtime.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

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 Marcos cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $33.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
