Learn More About Bella

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I’ve been caring for various animals since I was a kid. I got my first teen Summer job at a kennel and continued keeping animals in my life, one way or another, for the last 6 years through pet-sitting volunteer work or my own fur babies.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Cat sitting doesn't feel like a job to me. That sounds cliche, but I feel happier after. Animals have incredible effects on people! I’ve also always felt most inclined towards cats. I like how they do their own thing.

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

To ensure your cat’s safety and the security of your home, I secure all doors and windows, follow your cat’s routine, and supervise closely during playtime. I also lock up the house and respect and pay close attention to your home’s rules to provide a safe, stress-free environment. I completely understand worries about what is happening at your home and with your felines while you're out and about, and I'm here to help elevate that!

I can’t recommend Bella enough! She is incredibly skilled and patient, especially when it comes to giving medication, which can be such a challenge with cats. My senior cat requires daily pills, and Bella handled it with ease, keeping her calm and stress-free. What impressed me even more was her ability to bring my shy cat out of her shell. Typically, she hides from strangers, but Bella took the time to earn her trust with a gentle and understanding approach. By the end of their visits, my shy girl was happily lounging in the open and even accepting pets. It’s clear that Bella genuinely loves and understands cats, and I felt completely confident leaving my babies in her care. They went above and beyond to keep both of my cats happy and comfortable while I was away!

Bella did a great job watching my cat, Tuna, when my family and I took a trip. She came over everyday to watch and make sure he had plenty of food and water as well as taking him outside and playing with him. She was especially careful to make sure Tuna felt comfortable around her as he is quite skittish and shy around new people. Highly recommend her as she was extremely attentive to all of his needs.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Thousand Oaks cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $36.00. 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.
