I'm Danielle | Cat Sitting in Santa Clara, CA

Hi! My name is Danielle and I am a registered veterinary technician. I have been working in the professional veterinary field for 10 years now. I love cats and am comfortable with any and all temperaments! I have fostered dozens of kittens over the years, many of which needed to be bottle or tube-fed. I have a special-needs kitty at home who I raised from 1 week of age. I am comfortable giving medications, injections, and subcutaneous fluids. I have been caring for animals since I got my first dog at the age of 9, and successfully started my own pet care business when I was 14 years old. I have volunteered at the huma...

Danielle provided amazing care for our two cats, Cocoa & Cosmo, while my partner & I were away on vacation. From the outset, Danielle's expertise was evident & reassuring, especially considering her experience as a vet tech. Danielle treated our cats as individuals with distinct personalities & needs. This approach reassured us that she genuinely cared for the wellbeing of Cocoa & Cosmo. Before we departed for our trip, Danielle's curiosity & the clarifying questions she asked about our cats during our Meet & Greet reaffirmed our confidence in her abilities. Her attention to detail & clear commitment to understanding our cats' unique needs left no doubt that they would be in capable hands. She was very communicative – her daily photo updates were a lovely touch, and receiving them was a reassurance that our cats were happy & well-cared for in our absence. Danielle will certainly be our first choice for any future cat sitting needs.

Danielle was a pleasure to work with. I was nervous because it was our first time using a cat sitter, but she made us feel comfortable and at ease to leave our fur babies with her. She was very communicative and made sure to note any irregularities in their behaviors/ appearances. I would definitely book Danielle again for our cat sitting needs!

Danielle did a fantastic job sitting for our shy little kitty, Gigi. She was patient and even managed to get her out and could pet her. She kept us well informed and sent pictures. We would definitely have her take care of Gigi again.

Our cat is usually really anxious with new people, but Danielle managed to coax Daisy out of her shell. I got great photos of a relaxed cat and it made me feel better about leaving her. Danielle is great at communicating with you about how your pet is. We will be booking her again in the future.

Hired Danielle to catsit two kittens over a weekend while I attended an out of state wedding. Everything went well. Danielle followed all instructions and provided daily update with pictures. Would highly recommend. I plan on using next time I am away.

Frequently Asked Questions

The average price for a cat sitter is $40.00.

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.
