I'm Miranda
Cat Sitting in Indianapolis, IN
I currently have two different Fear-Free certifications, and am working on a third! I strongly believe in giving cats a chance to speak for themselves and determine how our interactions will go. I would love to get the chance to meet you and your furry kiddos, and can't wait to talk to you more about them!
Learn More About Miranda
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have a whole handful of cats in my house of varying ages and purrsonalities. I have Jack, Calypso, Wesley, Harvey, Shamwow, and Quinn!
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I love doing meet and greets! Getting to know clients and their kitties is one of the best parts of the job! These give you a chance to ask each other questions and figure out expectations. I especially prefer getting the chance to learn what is most important to the cat parent where their cat is involved! Once getting to know each other, I love to meet the cat while the parent is there. That way you can see a bit more of their purrsonality in a more comfortable environment. From there I love taking photos and sending updates while checking in with the cats, so that the parents never feel like they are too far away!
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I personally will lock all doors behind me, and keep other doors inside the house the way that I found them. If doors are closed it is usually for a reason, as experienced with my own kitties! I also like to do a walkthrough when I arrive and before I leave to make sure there is nothing dangerous for them in their reach, such as twist ties or small bits of plastic. I believe communication is key, and will openly discuss any concerns I have regarding the safety of the cats in my care. I do not post photos of the cats I am sitting to ensure no part of a client's home is visible to untrusted eyes.
Are you usually available during holidays?
I am sometimes available on holidays. If my schedule says that I am not, please feel free to message me and I can see if I am available for what you're looking for.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I have a cat at home that is very fractious and have spent a lot of time helping scared cats. I find it extremely helpful to let them choose their own adventure, and I do not force any interaction unless safety is a concern. I like to offer snacks and enrichment to show them that I am a friend to them, and have found that many of them enjoy soft conversations. If a cat doesn't want to come out, that is okay by me! We can just be friends from afar!

Miranda was fantastic in taking care of our 3 kitties! She did a meet and greet with us before our reservation so we could go over instructions and personalities in person and everyone vibed off the bat! She sent updates and photos with every visit and was super responsive in any communication. Highly recommend her and would book with her again!

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.
Indianapolis 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 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 Meet & Greet!

Miranda is fantastic with cats and really knows how to handle their behaviors well. She has watched my cats on several occasions and she cares for each of their needs and quirks so well. She really takes her time to get to know them so she can provide them with the best care. She is also great with medications! Miranda is the perfect person to watch your kitties while you’re away!
