I'm Sydney
Cat Sitting in Newport Beach, CA
I’ve been a lifelong cat lover and understand how important it is to leave your fur babies with someone you truly trust. I currently have a 9-year-old cat named Delman, and I recently lost my beloved Maine Coon, Frederick, who lived to be 23 years old. Caring for him through every stage of life gave me extensive experience with senior cats, different personalities, routines, and the extra love and patience they sometimes need.
I treat every cat as if they were my own and genuinely love creating a calm, safe, and comforting experience while you’re away... Meow there — I’m Sydney! 🐾

I treat every cat as if they were my own and genuinely love creating a calm, safe, and comforting experience while you’re away. Whether your kitty is playful and social or shy and routine-oriented, I’m happy to adapt to their unique needs and personality.
During visits, I provide:
• Fresh food & water
• Litter box cleaning
• Playtime, cuddles, and enrichment
• Photo and video updates
• Medication support if needed
• Plant watering & mail collection
• Cleanup for hairballs or little messes along the way
I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, detail-oriented, and trustworthy. My schedule is flexible, and I always do my best to accommodate requests whenever possible.
If the time you’re looking for appears unavailable, please feel free to message me anyway. I may be able to make adjustments to fit you in.
I can’t wait to meet you and your kitty ❤️🐈

Sydney has sat for us before and our two kitties love to see her every time she comes over. She keeps our kitties happy and engaged and has left our home clean and orderly after every visit. She also sends us daily video Kitty-chats which is so nice when mom and dad are away. She is really an exceptional sitter.

Sydney is an incredible sitter, and treated our cats with love. She far exceeded my expectations in every way. For example, one of my cats is really shy around new people and I was really worried that he wouldn’t come out to eat while we were gone but Sydney was able to win him over within the first meeting - she had him eating treats out of her hand. She sent us so many pictures, videos and updates that we never had any concerns - total peace of mind. Our cats are bengals and playtime is important to them, Sydney made sure they had all the entertainment they needed and even brought over new toys for them to try. She did such a great job! Will book her again!

Sydney is great with my cat Pepper. She always sends me plenty of pictures and videos and is super communicative. She always make sure to spend a lot of time playing with Pepper since that’s what Pepper is into but she also makes sure to take care of everything Ive asked her to check up on. I never have to worry about being out of town when I know she’s there! Thank you Sydney!

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.
Newport Beach 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!

This was my husband and I’s first time leaving our cats for more than a couple of days, and we knew we needed the right sitter so we wouldn’t spend the whole trip worrying about them. Sydney was exceptional! Above and beyond anything we could have dreamed! She sent us the most thoughtful updates every single day: videos, pictures, and little recaps of everything they did together during each visit. One of our kitties is usually very shy, but every time we got photos, she was out of hiding and clearly enjoying Sydney’s company. That alone gave us such peace of mind! If you’re looking for someone to truly pamper your babies while you’re away, Sydney is the one. She’s amazing with cats, a fantastic communicator, and just everything you could hope for in a sitter. Thank you so much, Sydney!

Sydney is super easy to work with and flexible and also great with cats - even shy ones! She actually found my shy kitty one time when I could not. By day two he was completely comfortable. She is also great with food, cleaning up, play, and of course pictures and updates. I strongly recommend Sydney :)

Sydney did a great job. She seemed to really care about my cat and my cat seemed to like her back. She gave me frequent updates with photos and videos so I knew my kitty was safe and sound. When I got back, I could tell she had been well-cared-for. Thank you Sydney!
Tina

Sydney was wonderful companion to my two kitties. I was a bit concerned that I was leaving them for about 25 days but after the first few days, I could see by the photos/video that both kitties were happy with their new friend. I felt completely relaxed knowing that they would be content in our absence. As a bonus, she looked after some plants. I would highly recommend Sydney as a caring, personable and loving pet sitter.
Nicole

This was my first time leaving my kitties for this long. It was also my first time hiring a kitty sitter. I was very nervous at first but Sydney immediately made me feel comfortable and confident that my kitties would be taken care of. She most definitely did the absolute best job with my babies. She even came over to meet them before I left for my trip! Sydney goes way above and beyond. She clearly cares about her clients and their cats. I got tons of updates and they all seemed very content while I was gone. I wouldn’t think to hire anyone else but her as my sitter now!
Ava

Sydney was exceptional in every way as our cat sitter. She went above and beyond, showing incredible kindness and patience with my shy kitty, helping him come out of his shell. Her thoughtful care not only reassured my nervous kitty-mom-self while I was away but also made me confident in leaving my pet in her hands. To top it all off, my house was incredibly clean when I returned (litter was scooped and floors were vacuumed). I will definitely be relying on Sydney for all my future cat-sitting needs.
Stephanie

We always use Sydney to look after our kitties while we are out of town and she always does a fantastic job! We have a shy kitty that she always gets to come out of his shell as well as a high energy kitty that she spends time playing with. She sends photos and videos daily so we always feel connected and know how everyone is doing at home.

Sydney is a purrfect sitter! Lily needed meds and Midnight is a shy tortie; Lily received his meds nightly and Midnight cuddled her by the week’s end. Not to mention the amazing daily updates and adorable photos.

This is the first time I have left my kitties in someone’s care for a long time. I was very nervous because one of my cats got sick before I left and on top of that, he is extremely scared of everything and everyone. Sydney helped alleviate my fears and I was so comfortable as soon as I met her at the meet and greet. She is so great with cats and understands their behavior. She sent me pictures every day and messaged me about how they were doing. I felt like I could relax while I was away because I knew they were in good hands. She did everything I asked her to do. I highly recommend her and I definitely will be using her the next time I need someone to take care of my cats. She’s the best!!!

I knew Sydney was going to the best care giver to my 4 cats as soon as we met. She introduced herself and quickly saw “Max” our large black cat and moved to pet him “hello”. She was interested in the cats care instructions and she would be sending videos and pictures to let us see our fur babies were doing well. she sent the videos and pics with notes on how care was going. These messages allowed us to enjoy our vacation as our cats were being cared for. Next trip away from home Sydney is who we will call for sitting help. A+

Sydney is an amazing sitter! She is very nice, caring, and helpful. Upon meeting her I knew my two cats would be in great hands for the 10 days I was away. She sent multiple videos and pictures along with a text update of what she did each day during the visit. She made sure to play and cuddle with my energetic kitten and try to gain the trust of my other more shy cat. My two girls were happy, healthy, and well fed upon my return. I highly recommend Sydney! :)

Sydney was the perfect cat sitter! During the ten days we were gone, she was prompt in her visits, followed all our wishes about feeding, and patiently formed a relationship with our very shy Kitty, giving her lots of love and care. She even sent us pictures and daily messages so that we didn't have to worry! We came home to a very happy cat. We will definitely ask Sydney again the next time we need to go away!
Dani
July 10, 2018
Sydney is fantastic! I’d never used this type of service before, and she completely eased my worries at our first meeting — she was a pro and it showed. Sydney responded quickly to my inquiries, took detailed notes and takes time to get acquainted with the animal she’ll be caring for. The best part? She happily takes photos, video and sends updates on your kitty after every visit. When she noticed Melo was wanting extra cuddles in the morning, Sydney took it upon herself to spend extra time with him later that day. I came home to a content, relaxed cat and couldn’t be more pleased with my decision to use Meowtel, and most importantly, be connected with an awesome sitter like Sydney. Highly recommend her services!
Jocelyn

Sydney is an amazing cat sitter! My boyfriend and I have a young cat and both have to travel quite a bit for work. We were so nervous about leaving him home alone, but luckily found Sydney! She immediately put our minds at ease. She's very communicative, letting us know when she's at our place with Frank and sending lots of pictures and videos. I can tell when I get home that he's calmer too because he's had the playtime he needs. Sydney really cares and puts the extra time in. I highly highly recommend her for anyone looking for a cat sitter that goes above and beyond!
Sabrina

Sidney is the person for whom you are looking to pet sit. Her concern and care - making sure she could try to see both cats on her daily visits put us at ease while we were on vacation. Hearing from her daily and receiving pics/clips and updates was perfect. This was the first time leaving our cats for an extended period of time and would have no qualms scheduling Sidney again. Thanks so much!!

Sydney is a total cat sitter rock star!!! We have used her three times and she has fostered a great relationship with our 8 year old black kitty who is very shy around strangers!

We love working with Sydney and she is our go-to cat sitter when we travel.

This was my first time using Meowtel and I have to say, Sydney made it seamless. From meeting before hand to get keys to communicating throughout my time away, sending pictures and videos. I really feel like she took care of my cats as if they were her own. I won't hesitate to use her again and if you're in the Tampa area, you won't find a better person to take care of your cats!

Sydney is the sweetest and the best! We were gone on a long trip and came home and in addition to loving our kitties, she had so kindly put away our dishes for us as an unexpected bonus. She is so thoughtful and loves playing with our kitties , it makes us feel so good to know they are in our care while we are gone ?

Highly recommend! Sydney stopped by for my maine coon, clio, who is very playful and high energy. I had no doubts Clio was in amazing care the second I met with Sydney to leave the keys, instructions, and meet the cat prior to the weekend away. Definitely a cat person that you and your cat can trust

I travel often for work + Sydney is my go-to cat sitter though honestly she is way more than just that. Sydney truly seems to care + connect with the whole gang (there are multiple kitties), often going above + beyond. My heart travels with ease + I can’t be more grateful for finding Sydney!

We left for 5 days and Sydney filled our kitties hearts and tummies during this time and we returned to very healthy and happy little kitties. She has been our sitter since day 1 for the last 3 years and she is the only one who can love one of our kitties because she established trust. I can't express how wonderful she is and the peace of mind she gives us every time we travel. The kitties love her and love their time with her!
Kat

Syndey is the BEST! Our cats love her and so do we! This trip was cut short due to the fires and so was so flexible and helpful in working with our new schedule. You can always get in touch with her and never have to worry. Your kitties will be in an experts hands!

Sydney is everything I could want in a sitter. She took great care of my two kitties, and sent pictures and videos during the visits. She spent time playing and cuddling with them, and made sure all their needs were taken care of. She also tidied up the litter, which is greatly appreciated.

It was wonderful to meet Sydney for the walk-through before my trip and she was excellent with the kitties. I was nice to see the photos and videos of the kitties shared, it was great to know they were being taken care of! I totally recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a kitty sitter!

Auntie Sydney is the best! she kept our 2 babies loved, brushed, fed and entertained each day while we were on vacation. Every time my boyfriend and I travel, we count our blessings we have Sydney. She gives us the best piece of mind that we have left the muppets with great care! AND, they LOVE her, even the shy one cuddles up to Sydney! Thank you!!

Sydney was just fantastic and the best sitter we’ve had. Our cat was relaxed and happy when we got back and Sydney sent us regular videos of play time to let us know everything was going great. Highly recommended.

Sydney is, hands down, THE BEST pet sitter I've worked with. Her love for animals is evident in the care she provides and how well she connects with my kitty-boo. She's a gift! So happy to have her on my team!

Sydney is truly the best. I can't tell you how grateful we are to have found her. Our kitty Rodger loves her so much and we can rest easy knowing that our little guy is in great hands with his friend Sydney. She is thorough, kind, responsive, and she always sends photos and videos which we love getting while we're away. THANK YOU SYDNEY!

Sydney is the BEST sitter I've ever had! She's a true cat lady at heart and as I travel a lot, I NEVER worry about the cats because she always sends pictures and texts. The peace of mind I have knowing I don't have to check in while I'm away is everything! And my cats are super sassy and love her!! Highly recommend!!

Sydney is a wonderful cat sitter who makes a special effort to bond with my very independent and skittish cat! I can depend on Sydney to reassure Miss Kitty when we are away and to be a calming presence.

Obviously, Sydney came very highly recommended and rated. All the 5 star ratings are true. Already have Sydney booked for Sept and Oct! I think that “Miss Kitty” was actually disappointed it was her “parents” walking through the door Monday afternoon and not the one that dotes 100% on her.
