I'm Heather | Cat Sitting in Van Nuys, CA
I absolutely love cats! I grew up with them, and have had my own for 25 years. I'm currently a single mom with two cats (Mikey and Spooky), a dog (Gizmo/Gizzie) and a 13-year-old human daughter who adores cats as much as myself. Funny story- when I was pregnant with her I wanted to see a hand or an elbow, or something pushing on my belly so badly that I dreamt about it. I dreamt that I looked down and saw a paw! She also believed she was part cat and wore cat ears for many years. I will never not have a cat (although this might be the last time I have a dog)! I work in the film business, mostly on commercials, as a script supervisor, but not often. I have a lot of free time and I couldn’t think of a better way to spend it than taking care of kitties! I'm an animal activist and I have rescued and tamed several cats in my lifetime. I have TNR’d a few...
Heather's Reviews
Jennie
Heather did a wonderful job with my cat who needed medication twice a day. I was nervous about leaving him but I felt very comfortable leaving Jeremy in Heather's very capable hands! Highly recommend!
Kayla
This was our second time hiring Heather to take care of our two very shy kitties and she was wonderful! She is always very communicative, prompt, and kind. I would absolutely hire for again in the future.
Kayla
heather was very responsive and communicative in regards to our kitties. she was prompt, detailed, and tried her best with our cats who are very very shy. we would absolutely hire Heather again to watch our cats.
Eliette
Heather was wonderful and even coerced my shy (read feisty and doesn’t love strangers) cat Mimi out of her shell. Buff took a liking to her immediately too. Looking forward to more Heather visits!
Amanda
Heather stepped in to watch my babies at the last minute because another sitter fell through. She sent detailed updates and answered all my questions quickly - would definitely book her again!

Frequently Asked Questions
Van Nuys cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $42.00. 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.
