I'm Lindsey
Cat Sitting in Manchester, CT
I grew up in a house filled with pets, including cats. My mom is a veterinary technician for over 40 years and always taught us how to best care for our furry friends and encouraged us to learn as much as possible about them.
She's the only person... I am a cat lover to my core! I have a super senior cat named Bean who I absolutely adore, he's been my best friend for almost 20 years now.
I grew up in a house filled with pets, including cats. My mom is a veterinary technician for over 40 years and always taught us how to best care for our furry friends and encouraged us to learn as much as possible about them.
She's the only person I trust to look after Bean when I'm away and I've considered how stressful it is for other cat parents to find quality care when they're traveling. So I want to give back and share my love and experience so others in my community can feel at ease.
I've cared for multiple cats at a time, individual cats, kittens and adults and cats with special needs like medications and injections.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
-utilize security systems as instructed -making sure all cats are accounted for whenever I leave or arrive -making sure doors are closed to off limits areas when -ensuring I don't leave things lying around which are cat hazards -following all instructions from the cat parent as regards to feeding and or medications
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes, I dont travel out of state to see family during the holidays so I am always home for the holidays.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I would definitely let things happen on the cats terms. I think it's super important not to push their boundaries. So I'd start by just sitting on the floor and being present in their environment, letting them come to me. And then slowly introduce things like physical touch and offering treats from my hand to build their trust

Lindsey did great with my cat Yuji! I just moved into the area and don’t know anyone out here. She’s a great communicator and sent me videos and pictures every day. Yuji is a little skeptical about people but really liked Lindsey from the start. She really spent time with him, making sure he felt comfortable, and I couldn’t be happier. I’ll be reaching out to Lindsey any time I need to go out of town.

Lindsey was great!! She did everything we asked and our cats were very well taken care of. She was very gently with our cats and did a great job of letting them get comfortable with her on their own time - which we really appreciated. This was our first time using Meowtel services and after our meet and greet with Lindsey, we felt very comfortable leaving on vacation knowing Lindsey was going to come visit and care of our cats. We will definitely be hiring her again when we are out of town.

Lindsey provided excellent care for our senior cat, Fiona! Fiona is reserved and rarely warms up to others, but by the end of their time together she had warmed up to Lindsey! Lindsey was very patient with her and very communicative with us. she followed all instructions left for her and we had peace of mind knowing that Fiona was in very good hands while we were away.

I'm glad to know you're pleased with everything. Fiona was shy at first but she's a sweetie pie at heart, she just needs some time! 🥰

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.
Manchester cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!

Lindsey did well with my rescued feral kitty who is still quite skittish and shy. I was worried, since this was the first time I had been away from my cat, and Lindsey's messages and photos put my mind at ease so I could enjoy my time away. I will certainly use Lindsey again!
Response from Lindsey
Thank you Dana, it was a pleasure looking after Squeaky and earning her trust! I hope to visit her again sometime!

Lindsey took wonderful care of my two senior cats. Daily updates and pictures. She handled their "spoiled kitties" eating routine (and meds) very well. I returned to very cared for fur babies. We were gone for over 10 days and I will absolutely hire Lindsey again. Highly recommend!
Response from Lindsey
Hi Kristin, Thanks for the lovely feedback! I had so much fun seeing Pippin and Rosie every day. They are the sweetest little fur babies, I hope to see them again!

Lindsay did a great job caring for my cat while I was traveling. i just moved here, so Lindsay was new for us. we had a great meet and greet before the sitting was to start. while I was away, I got updates with pictures and all my requests were met. she’s just lovely and I am grateful to have found our new cat caretaker when I’m away!
