I'm Theresa | Cat Sitting in Santa Monica, CA
Hi, Im Theresa. I have fostered over 25 kittens and cats for the past 5 years in New York (ACC and Jersey Cats), London (RSPCA) and LA (Pups and Pooses). I’m very comfortable looking after cats which are not my own and I’m very experienced with a wide variety of cats, their different habits and specific needs. I love spending time with cats and getting to know their unique personalities. I’m experienced in caring for a variety of kittens and cats, including feeding and giving them medication when they’re sick. I’...
Theresa's Reviews
Nadine
Theresa's middle name must be "peace of mind" because she is an extraordinary cat sitter for any pet parent who is worried about leaving their anxious cats with someone new. My cat was immediately drawn to her. She took such good care of him and provided detailed updates. I have a two week trip coming up and I'm at ease knowing Theresa will be able to look after him again!

Theresa did such a great job taking care of our Piper. We were gone for a week and I was nervous about leaving her that long, but getting the updates really helped. I could tell from the photos and videos that Piper was happy each time she saw Theresa and they played together. Also Theresa helped to bring in the mail :) Great experience and would recommend and use her again!

Theresa made leaving our kitties for an extended amount of time simple and easy. From our initial meeting, to following directions, to playing with our cats and sending cute pics. She was lovely in every sense of the word. We would have no hesitations in using her again and you shouldn’t either. 🥰

Theresa took care of my cat Maxi for my long trip away. This probably could not have been better. Theresa did multiple visits and each time she provided plenty of messages, photos and videos of her interactions with Maxi. I know Maxi loved having her over and wasn’t lonely. With my future travel out of town, I will be seeking to have Theresa over to cat-sit Maxi again.

Theresa made our first experience with meowtel so positive! Her detailed updates and sweet photos gave us such peace of mind while being gone from our cats! She brought our shy cat out of her shell right away, and played so well with our energetic cat. Great attention to all aspects of care, we couldn’t recommend her enough!

Frequently Asked Questions
Santa Monica cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $39.00. 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.
