Learn More About Ashley

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

Although I'm relatively new to Meowtel, I have been cat sitting for 3 years. I've handled everything from feeding and playtime to giving oral medication and making shy cats feel comfortable.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to know each cat's unique personality! Some are playful and energetic, while others are shy and take time to warm up. It's always rewarding to earn their trust and see them feel comfortable around me. I truly enjoy spending time with cats and figuring out what makes each one feel happy and comfortable.

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

I like to start by learning about your cat’s personality, routine, and any special needs they might have. I ask about things like favorite toys, feeding schedules, hiding spots, and any health concerns. Once I start sitting, I keep you updated with messages and photos, so you know how their cat is doing. My goal is always to make sure your cat feels safe and at ease.

Thank you so much for taking good care of Maisie! I liked that you took notes and asked a lot of questions, it helped me feel at ease for the first time leaving my kitty behind. Thanks for your thoughtful messages I appreciated how much time you took to write each one, and the pictures/videos were also really appreciated. thanks again Ashley!

Frequently Asked Questions

San Mateo 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.
