Cat Sitting in Valley Village, CA

I have an immense love of all animals, but cats are really where my love runs deepest. Throughout my life, there have always been cats around, and I am currently a cat parent to a crazy boy: a 10 year old black Manx. He was found as a stray as a young adult, and my previous cat was adopted through a foster parent after years of going from shelter to shelter. We have dealt with a wide variety of medical problems through the years, but those issues have made me very comfortable with administering oral and topical medications and supplements, adjusting feeding schedules and food quantities, and doing a lot of cleanup work.

I love my cat dearly, and I also extend those same feelings for any cat in my care or that I come in contact with... I have an immense love of all animals, but cats are really where my love runs deepest. Throughout my life, there have always been cats around, and I am currently a cat parent to a crazy boy: a 10 year old black Manx. He was found as a stray as a young adult, and my previous cat was adopted through a foster parent after years of going from shelter to shelter. We have dealt with a wide variety of medical problems through the years, but those issues have made me very comfortable with administering oral and topical medications and supplements, adjusting feeding schedules and food quantities, and doing a lot of cleanup work.

I love my cat dearly, and I also extend those same feelings for any cat in my care or that I come in contact with. I have been a cat sitter for many family members and friends when they have gone on vacations or been away and needed someone to check in on their pets. I have experience caring for both young and older felines and am comfortable with all cat temperaments. I often cat sit for my parents, and they have a very finicky and feisty calico whom I have learned how to approach based on her current mood, which changes often.

As a sitter, I approach each new cat slowly and let them give me a prospective sniff so we can get acquainted and I can see how they react to gauge their temperament. I am very patient with skittish kitties and don't force myself onto them in order to respect their boundaries, as those are very important in the cat world. I pay extremely close attention to whatever cat I am focused on, and as I get to know them more, I am able to pick up on issues that I see so they can be addressed as soon as possible. I know I would want to be notified asap of any problem for my own cat, so I take that responsibility very seriously.

I look forward to providing the best care possible for your pets and to making more feline friends!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love meeting new kitties and seeing the way they all have incredibly different personalities. It’s so interesting. I also love when a cat gets comfortable enough with me to let their little quirks show - like finally jumping onto my lap or standing on their hind legs and pawing at me to pick them up.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a 10 year old black cat named Binx, and even my parents recognize that he is my son 🖤 I found him when he was 6 months old, so we’ve been through a lot together. He loves causing trouble and then sleeping off all that excitement.

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

Make sure that the sitter truly understands cat behavior - that’s very important. Cats are all unique, so the sitter needs to interact with each cat based on their personality and temperament.

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

I like to give them a lot of space and slowly approach with an extended hand to see how far their “challenge line” is. Once they make that boundary clear, I respect it while doing the rest of my visit duties such as cleaning the litter box or feeding. I always talk to them in a happy tone, even if they’re hiding or staying away. I feel like it helps them get used to me a little more and see that I’m not a threat.

Natalie took amazing care of our kitties. We have a girl cat who needs oral meds daily and she can be really resistant to taking them and Natalie managed to get them in her every day. We also got lots of pictures and updates to enjoy while we were gone.

Natalie is great! My cats warmed up to her right away at the meet & greet. She was gentle and kind. My one cat Mugsy is a scaredy cat and tends to hide when anyone comes to our home. But he did not with Natalie. She was great with the updates as well. I knew my cats were in safe hands and I was able to enjoy my vacation with no worries. I will highly recommend her as will my my babies 😊

Natalie was amazing with our two kittens. It was our first time leaving them with a sitter so we were a bit nervous but Natalie put us at ease during our meet and greet. After her visits we got detailed updates and great photos/videos and we could tell the kittens were well cared for while we were gone. Would definitely recommend Natalie for your cat sitting needs!

Our usual sitter was unavailable when we booked a somewhat last-minute vacation, so we appreciate that Natalie stepped up! She took notes at our meet and greet, followed directions well, and sent me detailed updates with every visit. (The way she described our cats’ behaviors made me laugh!) She was also very flexible when we had to cut our trip short due to a small injury. Thank you again, Natalie!

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.

Valley Village 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!
