I'm Tim | Cat Sitting in Sherman Oaks, CA
Our first adopted cat, Monkey, was my greatest teacher. Throughout his life, he faced challenges like type II diabetes, requiring insulin injections, and eventually lymphoma and colon cancer, necessitating daily pills and constant health assessments. These experiences honed my skills in administering medications to a cautious cat and attuned me to their pain, along with the subtle signs of their happiness and quality of life. Additionally, I am a licensed and certified Pharmacy Technician in the State of California, skilled in subcutaneous injections, monitoring blood sugar, and providing oral medications. My husban...

Tim's Reviews
Christian
Found out about Meowtel from IG a few weeks before our trip and was able to find Tim from the many cat-sitters available. Tim responded quickly and my wife and I appreciated that he took the time to come by to meet us and our cats beforehand. It's difficult to trust strangers into your home but we felt absolutely "at home" with Tim. He kept us updated with each visit with photos and videos. Provided some insights and tips on a few things and made us feel at ease being away from the cats. Tim was also open to schedule adjustments and was open to any requests we may have. Will definitely reserve Tim again for future trips! Thanks, Tim!
Justin
Tim was super caring and helpful. Our cats were pretty hot and cold with shyness, and we had some challenges with our security system that Tim worked through calmly. But everything went great and our cats were very obviously appreciative of the attention.

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 $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.
