I'm Abby | Cat Sitting in Santee, CA

Hello! My name is Abby and I’m a catsitter in my 20s. I am a professional animal adoption counselor and therefore spend 40 hours a week with cats and other animals in a shelter. I have three cats of my own at home, as well, so my days are filled with cats! This may mean I’m a “crazy cat lady” but I think there are worse things to be! Whenever my friends go out of town, I am the first one they ask to watch their cats, too, since I have professional experience and I obv...

Learn More About Abby

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to spend 1x1 time with cats and learn about their individual preferences and quirks! Catsitting is a great way to meet cats I’d otherwise never meet.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have three girls of my own, and they’re all under 2 years old. All of them came into the shelter I work at as kittens, and I just formed a special conenction with these 3. I have Poker, Shiloh, and Anya!

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

As shelter staff, working with fearful/anxious cats is very common. I would never push your cat outside their comfort zone because I understand that change is inherently stressful for them and they cannot be rushed when they are trying to adapt. I’d bring a variety of treats and toys, and if they simply weren’t interested, I’d just sit with them quietly, perhaps reading, and offer them hiding places or perches nearby so they can safely watch me and adjust to my smells/sounds, etc.

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

If you are not fully satisfied with your sitter after the Meet & Greet or during the reservation, please call 1-844-636-9835 so we can help you re-book with a new sitter to ensure we can deliver on our purrfect hospitality promise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Santee cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $34.00. 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.
