Cat Sitting in Torrance, CA

Hi and meow there! My name is Jacquie. I am the wife and a mom to an awesome 21 year-old daughter, as well as a fur mommy to, I'm embarrassed to say..5 kitties, Topaz & Opal,
the twins! 😺😺, a feral kitty named Patches and her two babies Sunny and CJ.
Also a pupper named Peanut, who loves her brothers and sisters

I love all animals, but I consider myself "The Crazy Cat Lady," because kitties are my favorite. A few of my clients consider me a "cat whisperer", kitties know😻!

I'm a retired hairdresser and I'm looking for my next chapter in life, and I can promise you, your kitties will be treated as my own, with lots of love! I think I'm a purrr-fect candidate, because I am very detailed-oriented. What you can expect from me at every visit is a clean litter box, fresh water, and food as you have directed. I will bring in your mail, packages, take out trash & water plants too, if you'd like! If your furball needs medication I will do that too.

I am able to travel all over the South Bay. From Long Beach to Ingelwood, El Segundo to Palos Verdes, San Pedro to Wilmington and everywhere in between. I have you covered. 😻

Whenever I enter someone's home, I always make sure to take off my shoes and wash my hands. I will treat your home with much respect! I've raised cats my whole life, so I know they will be safe and happy with me. I can't wait to meet your kitties so we can play and I can cuddle with them! 😻

Jacquie was amazing! Super responsive and helpful when it came to setting up the reservation and meeting ahead of time to note everything that needed to be done. She was also great about giving text/picture updates every day of my trip. She was so sweet with my shy kitty and I felt at ease with her in Jacquie’s care. I will definitely be coming to Jacquie again next time I go out of town!

Jacquie was a wonderful cat sitter for our girls! It was the first time we had been away from our kitties, and Jacquie gave us peace of mind while we were on our trip, sending photos, videos, and updates. She took such lovely care of them providing food, water, treats, litter box attention, as well as love, care, and snuggles for our fur babies. Highly recommend; five stars! Thank you, Jacquie!

Jacquie was very attentive to my very shy girl. I received updates twice a day and a photo of my fur baby! I look forward to having Jacquie take care of Nora the next time we travel.

Jacquie is the PURRfect kitty caretaker! It was her experience with senior kitties & administering medication that first attracted me to her profile, and we couldn't be happier with her service. We have an almost 19-year-old long-haired cat who needs daily thyroid medication, and Jacquie went above & beyond with giving him the topical solution, sending us photos & updates, AND we found him in better condition than when we left! Will definitely use her again. She was also super tidy regarding the litter & cat food area, and even brought our mail/packages in.

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.

Torrance cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $36.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
