I'm Sidney
Cat Sitting in Indianapolis, IN
I do work a full time job from 7:30am-3:30pm M-F, and am new to cat... Meow! My name is Sidney and I am a long term cat mom. I have owned multiple cats for over ten years, ranging from kittens to senior cats, and have lots of experience with a variety of cat personalities! I am also able to administer topical, oral, or droplet forms of medication to your feline babies!
I do work a full time job from 7:30am-3:30pm M-F, and am new to cat sitting, but am an expert at cat love and care! I am available to drop in on weekdays after work, or on weekends at almost any time!
I would love to come visit and care for your baby and make sure they are well taken care of!
I have my own black cat who is 12 named Mozzy! She has mild arthritis- so I am also experienced in preventative/daily care of such disorders!
Learn More About Sidney
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have a cat named Mozzy who is a 12 year old black cat! She was found in a woodpile outside of my Godmothers home at 1 month old, and we’ve been inseparable ever since!
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
To me it is essential that the cat I am sitting feels comfortable and safe through a quiet and slow visit. I will not rapidly approach the cats or leave doors ajar. My goal is to come in and care for them as requested with as little disturbance as possible!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Anxious cats require specific sitting care! If the cat is hiding and appears to be scared, I will never push it and will allow that cat to be alone. If your baby is hiding in the closet or too scared to come out, I will simply complete your requested actions and leave as quietly as I can to not upset them any further!

Indianapolis cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
