Learn More About Bri
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
• Lifelong cat ownership • 7+ years fostering independently • Grew up fostering cats with my family • Experienced with kittens, seniors, and rescues • Long-term cat sitting for friends and repeat households
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I am a cat person through and through so I love meeting each one of your kitties and learning who they are. Every cat has a different personality, and I love taking the time to earn their trust at their pace. Watching a shy or cautious cat relax and feel comfortable is the most rewarding feeling.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Mortimus, Link, and Lima Bean are my kitties now. 2 are all black brothers and one is a fluffy Norwegian bush cat. I have always owned black cats.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
I’d recommend choosing a sitter who asks questions about your cats personality. What makes them feel at ease, favorite treats, spots to be pet, their quirks, any hiding spots, their favorite toys.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I always make sure to triple check locking and closing any doors. I follow all instructions carefully, double check windows, and treat your space with the same care and thoughtfulness I would my own. If anything seems out of the ordinary, I communicate that.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I approach very slowly and on their terms. In my experience, lowering myself down to their level has helped too. I make sure to gently call for them or make noise as to not startle abrasively. I let them come to me, respect their space, and use calm energy since animals are sensitive to that. I always follow the cat’s lead rather than forcing any interaction. I’ll jingle a toy or offer treats too depending on owner’s instructions.

Highly recommend Bri! Having just moved into the area we needed a trustworthy and caring pet sitter for 2 cats. We contacted Bri and she was always prompt to reply to our questions and agreed to a pre visit to get to know her. She's very knowledgeable and just loves cats. We have 2 cats that are dear family to us so we are very careful who will take care of them when we are away. Bri is truly a wonder for our 2 girls. They are very shy and never show themselves when strangers are around but they both took to Bri as if they had known her. I was so surprised that our shyest girl was, seeking out Bri on her visits for attention, love and head bumps instead of hiding! Bri was great with texting updates daily and photos after each visit. We loved that. Knowing our girls were well cared for and loved helped being away much easier. Thank you Bri!

Bri was the purrrfect kitten-sitter for my cat. She sent pictures and videos every day I was gone and when I returned my cat was as happy and healthy as I left her. I plan to use Bri again if I have to leave my fur baby. She’s a gem!

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.
Tustin cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $32.00. 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!
