I'm Tim | Cat Sitting in Sherman Oaks, CA
I’m a cat guy to my core. Taking exceptional care of these creatures started as a side hustle and has quickly turned into a thriving small business I’m passionate about. Our first adopted cat, Monkey, taught me much throughout his life. During his last five years, he developed type II diabetes, which required twice-daily insulin injections, and eventually lymphoma and colon cancer, which required daily pill administration, constant health assessments, and additional grooming. These conditions taught me how to administer medications to a skittish cat, and how to listen for their pain and other tell-tale signs through subtle behavior traits--all while gauging their hap...
Tim's Reviews
Richard
Tim is a great caretaker for my cats when I'm away. He's a great communicator and is genuinely concerned for my cats' wellbeing.
Katherine
Tim is one of the very best! He will love and take care of your cats like they are his own. We appreciate him so much!
Mae
I always feel comfortable leaving the furballs in Tim’s care. My one cat looks for him even after I get home! Tim is also super easy to work with and very cat knowledgeable.
Erin
This was our first time using a pet sitter service and Tim exceeded our expectations so much. He CD is now our go-to for any future pet sitting needs. From our intro meeting I could tell out cats loved him and that only grew while we were gone. Tim sent daily updates filled with photos. We felt completely comfortable leaving our boys in Tim’s care. Knowing he was there made it so easy to enjoy our trip!
Richard
Tim is my first choice for cat sitting in my current location. He's responsive, responsible, flexible, cares for my cats as well as I do when I'm home, and gives me complete satisfaction that everything with the cats is fine in my absence. He went above-and-beyond on this latest trip, FedExing my forgotten phone to me. If he's available, go with Tim.

Frequently Asked Questions
Sherman Oaks cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $42.00. 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.
