Cat Sitting in Soquel, CA

Please note that I only accept reservations with at least one visit per day of absence. This is based on my years of experience as a cat sitter and what I’ve found is best for your pets❤️

As a lover of animals with a special place in my heart for all felines, I am so happy to offer my kind attention and dedication to your kitties. I've been living and interacting with cats for decades and have come to deeply understand their language and needs. I'm excited about the opportunity to expand my circle of feline friends as an accompaniment to my work in customer validation and research.

I learned so much about cat care from Mochi, my lovely lady, who is friendly but wary, overly enthusiastic, yet skittish, a lover of attention but only if she can have it "her way"...

As a lover of animals with a special place in my heart for all felines, I am so happy to offer my kind attention and dedication to your kitties. I've been living and interacting with cats for decades and have come to deeply understand their language and needs. I'm excited about the opportunity to expand my circle of feline friends as an accompaniment to my work in customer validation and research.

I learned so much about cat care from Mochi, my lovely lady, who is friendly but wary, overly enthusiastic, yet skittish, a lover of attention but only if she can have it "her way". From her, I learned the ins and outs of anxiety-inducing vet visits, administering medication, introducing cats, respecting boundaries, and learning how to communicate with love and patience. Mochi has kept me company through so many important transitions in my life, and I deeply understand the role these beautiful beings fill in our lives.

As a pet parent, I've always felt such stress and anxiety leading up to any trip, wondering if my cats would be loved and taken care of in my absence. I have deep empathy for the experience of leaving our loved ones in another's care, and I would be honored to become that special, trusted someone that allows you to be present in the moment and know your cat is receiving the utmost of love and attention.

I'm more than willing to travel within Denver or surrounding cities to look after your family members. Their safety, health and engagement are my top priority. When you choose me, you can rest assured that your cats are within capable loving hands, and you can always depend on me to be reliable, responsive, punctual, and sensitive to their needs while you're away.

Learn More About Lindsay

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Getting to know each cat's individual personality, and what they respond best to

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

A friend's mother had a medical emergency and had to be admitted for over a week in the hospital. They called me to check on their cat while she was admitted and I felt so happy to be able to take care of their kitty while she was away. This sweet tuxedo baby and I turned the living room into a fun obstacle course and had a blast together :)

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Mochi, and formerly, Callie.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

I’d choose someone who is reliable, consistent, and caring, so you can be fully present wherever you are without concerns.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

Getting to know the cat. I love to hear all the details! What kind of toys do they like? What's their schedule? Any personality traits to be aware of, or types of interaction that they like or don't like? I adjust my approach to each cat as an individual. I also want to understand the cat parent's expectations for cat sitting so I can be sure to meet them, and any special requests they may have while they're away.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

1. Secure handling of keys and passcode for entry/exit. 2. Entering slowly and with awareness to prevent any escape attempts. 3. Ensuring that anything hazardous is removed from the area. 4. Following all instructions left by the cat parent to the T!

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

1. Move slowly 2. Speak in a calm voice 3. Don’t reach for the cat 4. Leave shoes near the cats hiding place so they can investigate my smell. 5. Engage kitty with a “motivator” like treats or play when ready. The trick is not to rush or apply pressure but behave consistently and calmly until the kitty feels safe ❤️

Lindsay is clearly a cat whisperer. our sweet boy is so shy but snuggled up to her and played right away. She's a great communicator and sent lots of pictures and videos of our fuzzbutts. Our old tried-and-true animal sitter moved away and we are so happy to have found Lindsay! Will definitely try to book with her again!

We couldn't have had a better sitter for our 2 cats than Lindsay! She catered to each of our kitties individual needs and personalities with a kind and gentle touch. She sent texts and cute video clips every time she visited and her visits were always on time/schedule. Lindsay responded promptly to our texts and questions. She left the house and cat boxes clean and tidy. We would HIGHLY recommend Lindsay to anyone who has cats.

Lindsay was excellent! It was my first time hiring a sitter for my two kitties, so I was a little nervous, but Lindsay sent plenty of pictures & videos during each visit, which put me at ease, and her communication was fantastic throughout. She asked appropriate, relevant questions during our Meet & Greet, and my kitty boys warmed up to her quickly. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!

Lindsay was absolutely amazing! I could tell my cat warmed up to her really quickly. she was on time with every appointment, gave me detailed updates on food and litter habits, sent tons of pics and videos of eating playing and cuddling. she even stayed late one day when my cat was loving her too much. she helped take out the trash on her last day before I got home and I just felt a lot of trust in her. will definitely be rebooking.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

Soquel cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $35.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet!
