Calm, Trusted In-Home Cat Sitter - Santa Monica, CA

Member since Apr 2026

Hi, I'm Will — a patient, attentive in-home cat sitter based in Santa Monica, here to care for your cat in the comfort and safety of their own space. I offer drop-in visits tailored completely to your cat's routine — feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, enrichment, and most importantly, genuine companionship so your cat never feels alone or unsettled while you're away.

Cats do best in their own environment, and I take that seriously. Rather than disrupting their world, I step into it — following your routines, respecting their space, and letting them lead every interaction. I've grown up with cats my entire life. My family currently has three kittens and a cat at home, and I have years of hands-on experience reading feline body language, recognizing when a cat wants connection versus when they want calm, quiet company from across the room. No two cats are the same, and I never treat them like they are.

I know that handing someone your house key and trusting them with your pet is a big deal. I don't take that lightly. I'm the eldest of four siblings — responsibility, follow-through, and being the steady presence in unpredictable situations are genuinely part of how I operate. I'm punctual, thorough, and communicative. You'll receive updates and photos after every visit so you always know your cat is happy, fed, and comfortable.

Whether your cat is outgoing and playful, shy and particular, or somewhere in between, I'll show up with patience, calm energy, and full attention every single time. I serve Santa Monica and surrounding LA neighborhoods within a 10-mile radius.

Your cat deserves care that feels like home — even when you're not there. I'd love to meet them!
