I'm Deanna | Cat Sitting in Indianapolis, IN

I’ve always had pets (dogs, cats, turtles, gerbils, geckos, even had a snake & tarantula!) at home and I have been involved with rescue for 20+ years. I am owned by 2 senior pibbles. I LOVE to cat sit as well as care for feral/community cats, and volunteer for rescues. I build cat shelters so the ferals can stay out of the elements and put food and water out for them too. I am availab...

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have been a cat mom in the past with as many as 3 cats and 3 dogs in my home at once and it made for so much fun! I currently have a dog that is a cat hater 😢 So I started cat sitting a couple of years ago to get my cat lovins. I also feed neighborhood/feral cats, squirrels, birds, and the random raccoon or possum 💞

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Seeing all the different personalities and catitudes 😻 I like trying a variety of activities to entice kitty engagement. If a kitty is shy I will just sit quietly and occasionally speak to them, ask how they’re doing or tell them what a good kitty they are.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I had one client that had 2 special needs senior cats (medications). They have both since passed 💔 and I miss them terribly. One of them was named Turtle and he had been rescued from a severely abusive environment so was extremely skittish around new people, and he needed insulin. I was always super quiet and gentle while giving him his shots and meds and always spoke softly telling him what a good boy he was and he had a mom and dad that loved him so much. After lots of time (maybe a year?) he let me pick him up and hold him! I could have cried! I did have my video recording and sent it to his mom. To this day I pull that video up and watch how happy he made me. RIH Turtle and Emma 🐾💞

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Indianapolis cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
