Cat Sitting in Indianapolis, IN

Hi everyone, I’m Julie! Here’s a little bit about me, my cat-sitting experience, and my own cats, each of which has made a permanent impression on my heart.

Me: I’m a professional singer and student dancer based in Indianapolis so my schedule is pretty flexible! I also do part-time work with Indianapolis Ballet. Cat sitting is my main work year-round and is one of my greatest sources of joy ❤️

As a sitter, I love taking notes, paying attention to the details, and giving your cat the space or play they need to be their happiest, healthiest selves. And speaking of health, I will always mask at meet-and-greets if requested! Also if you or your kiddos just have a cold but you have to meet before you travel, please just let me know and I'll mask up! That way I can aim to be my healthiest self while taking care of your kitties too. I am fully vaccinated and boosted against Covid.

With cat sitting I have at times taken reservations that were last-minute or outside of my area, so please always feel free to... Hi everyone, I’m Julie! Here’s a little bit about me, my cat-sitting experience, and my own cats, each of which has made a permanent impression on my heart.

That way I can aim to be my healthiest self while taking care of your kitties too. I am fully vaccinated and boosted against Covid.

With cat sitting I have at times taken reservations that were last-minute or outside of my area, so please always feel free to message me to see if I can help you! My sitting schedule is often packed so I do block off some of my calendar to protect down time, but like I said, if you’re ever in a fix or just planning a trip and see that my calendar is closed, reach out to me first and we’ll see what we can do!

If you request “anytime” visits vs. a specific time of day, it’s more likely I’ll be able to fit you in last minute, and 1x a day visits vs. 2x a day visits are also most accommodable on short notice! 🗓️

I deeply understand how hard it is to leave your babies at home, especially when they have extra important needs like scheduled feedings and medication. It can feel really scary to trust someone else with them but can be such a huge relief when you know you have a sitter you can count on!

In particular, my sweet cat Turtle was abused before he was rescued, and so he was TERRIFIED of strangers, but as a diabetic he had to have his insulin shots like clockwork. After 8 months of getting to know our own beloved sitter, Turtle no longer tried to hide or flee, but instead became his completely sweet and chatty self when she was around, and even let her pick him up and hold him!

I've had the same kind of experiences with my own skittish kitty clients, and I know how special that trust is and how wonderful it is to give your clients that same peace of mind that my sitter provides for me. I want to pay that forward and provide that exact same level of care for your babies when you're on the road!

I service central Indianapolis, including but not limited to the neighborhoods of Irvington, Woodruff Place, Fountain Square, Old Northside, Brookside, Meridian-Kessler, Twin Aire, Lockerbie Square, Forest Manor, Broad Ripple, IUPUI, Tibbs, Beech Grove, Martindale-Brightwood, Castleton, Nora, Eagle Creek, Lynhurst, Southport, Greenwood, and Wanamaker (please note the Meowtel app organizes service areas by zip codes). Again, if you find yourself in need but are unsure about my service area or calendar availability, please message me and we'll see what we can do!

While I do prefer a little notice so we can set up your meet-and-greet and get everything squared away, I aim to be flexible. I will always do my best to help kitties (and their parents) in need!❤️

Now about my cat experience 🐈‍⬛

My first cat, Sam, was a Maine Coon who I took in off the streets when he was a few months old and I was 13. He passed in 2020 at the ripe old age of 17 from kidney disease, and he was my first love. We managed his kidney disease for two years before having to let him go, so I am very comfortable with administering both liquid and pill medication.

My sweet Russian Blue, Turtle, passed in April 2024, and was a 16-year-old diabetic with Cushing’s disease, a heart murmur, cardiomyopathy, hypertension (high blood pressure), and a seizure condition. He received insulin injections and pill medications 2x a day for the last couple years of his life, so I’m well-versed in administering insulin and other meds (I have multiple diabetic clients too!). He was also extremely food motivated so I am used to having to feed everyone separately and ensure that nothing edible gets left out! He was the perfect hangry boy.

My 18-year-old tiny calico Emma passed in March 2024 and had colitis, so I’m used to administering medication when needed (either with pill popper or by hand) and in particular cleaning up messes. She actually was returned to the shelter several times due to her bathroom issues but she chose us by jumping into our arms when we visited, and we couldn’t help but fall in love.

In 2024 we also adopted sweet 13-year-old Kathryn Janeway, our intrepid little explorer, and we only got a precious 7 months with her before she passed, but she was worth every minute. As you can see, senior kitties are very close to my heart ❤️

I do also love sitting for younger cats because they can be so playful and have so much energy! They never fail to make me laugh. In 2023 I adopted a dilute tortie cat who had been dumped in my neighborhood and was very pregnant, and she showed up on my porch and was the biggest lovebug. She is now spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped, and a happy, healthy 3-year-old who never stops playing! Her name is Fancy Lady (a niche Supernatural reference for my fellow nerds out there) ❤️

Young or old, cats bring great joy to my life. Since my other cats passed, we have now welcomed additional adoptees of all ages into our home - we now have 10 cats total (yes, I am a 100% certified crazy cat lady 😂).

Our current cats’ names are: Spot, Fairy, Wilbur, Flopsy, Bebe, Evelyn, Paige, Kovu, Steve, and Fancy Lady ❤️

Learn More About Julie

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

I’ve been cat-sitting through Meowtel for 3+ years, but sat for friends and coworkers before that and have owned cats all my life. I’ve completed over 200 reservations with Meowtel, have 30+ repeat clients, and have years of medication experience. Read my bio above for full details ❤️

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to meet so many different purrsonalities and create bonds with each and every one of them. It's incredibly special to me when the cats who are more shy or territorial (or who had a difficult life before adoption) come to trust me and even let me love on them! Sometimes this takes a week, a few months, or even longer, but it is SO worth the wait. My second favorite part is sending my clients updates - cat photography is a hobby of mine, and I love catching mlems, biggg stretches, silly antics, and just photographing your babies' beautiful selves! It truly gives me a lot of joy.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

In 600 characters? No. But snippets, yes. 1) Theo absolutely hated me at our meet-and-greet; he was super spicy and let me know exactly what he thought. By the end of our reservation, he was on my lap and chest, purring all the time, and it made my heart swell a la the Grinch when he experiences FEELING. 2) Dean had a terminal diagnosis, and I had the privilege of spending his last week with him. He was incredibly sweet and serene, and he passed a couple of days after my time with him ended, but in that time he permanently stole a little piece of my heart. 3) They're all my favorite.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I do! My first cat was Sam (named after Samwise Gamgee, the biggest hero in the Lord of the Rings), and I also had two kitties Emma and Turtle who recently passed, as well as our sweet girl Kathryn. We currently have 10 cats (yes, I am a 100% certified crazy cat lady and can show you my credentials anytime 😉). Our current cats’ names are: Spot, Wilbur, Fairy, Flopsy, Bebe, Evelyn, Paige, Kovu, Steve, and Fancy Lady!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

The biggest quality I look for in a sitter is attention to detail! Of course you want your cats to love your sitter, but on a first meet-and-greet, that might not happen if they're shy or just not feeling like coming out (or you're interrupting their midday nap, how rude!) 🤪 At the meet-and-greet, take note of whether your sitter is asking thoughtful questions (maybe questions you hadn't even thought of), and whether they're actively listening as you go through your cat care needs. If your kitty has medication or other very specific needs, your sitter should absolutely be taking notes! Also make sure to keep your kitty’s profile updated as this can be helpful if a sitter can’t get a hold of you while they’re visiting!

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

First off, I answer any quick questions you may have over chat! Then once you've placed a reservation, I'll reach out to you to schedule our complimentary meet-and-greet. At the meet-and-greet, I have a standard list of questions I go through with every client (and I obviously give your kitties some pets if they feel like socializing!). I especially always go over house instructions (I test keys/alarms), emergency situations (vet release forms, location of carriers), and your kitties' favorite hiding spots. I take detailed notes and will answer any questions you have for me too!

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

At the meet-and-greet, I always ask if any of your kitties are darters or escape artists. I am always careful, but it is helpful to know if you have a specific furbaby who is frequently trying to go on an adventure in the great outdoors! I open entry doors slowly, and always have my bag or hand down by the bottom of the door to block any would-be Houdinis.

Are you usually available during holidays?

This depends! Because some of my kitties have medication needs, I don't travel as often so I may be available. Sometimes my calendar is closed because I have taken the max amount of reservations I can manage, or sometimes it's just to protect a little time off. As always though, feel free to message me! I have taken last-minute reservations or rezzies that were outside of my area before, so I'm always open to making new furry friends when I can.

What is your favorite cat toy?

This one’s tough! I have several faves and have learned of some fantastic ones from my own clients! I am however super picky because of my own cats and am always thinking about safety first (some things with feathers or ribbons are no-nos or I put them completely out of reach when my own cats are unsupurrvised). The Catstages catnip toys are generally great, with the dynamite and dill pickle toys being big hits! The Yeowww brand also has a catnip banana and rainbow toy, some balls, and Frisco has some great wand toys! I am also a connoisseur of excellent scratchers for all my kitties’ varied tastes (cardboard, sisal, etc)!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I have a lot of experience with this! First off I always like to know their favorite hiding spots just so I can check on them even if they aren't feeling like coming out. It also helps to know if they have favorite treats and how they prefer to be pet (if they're up to being touched at all). Petting a kitty a way they like is important! I also do a mix of speaking to them so they get used to my voice and quiet time so they can feel comfortable in their space and learn that I am safe. I never try to force a kitty to come out or overwhelm them with attention they don't want.

I have three Bengals, and true to their breed, they are chaos goblins. Julie is so patient and understanding cleaning up the mess they leave in their wake when I’m not home, and then she encourages playtime with them while she visits. One of them is stranger shy, so Julie was sure to set food aside for him in a location where he felt safe. It gives me great peace of mind knowing my kits are being looked after by someone so thoughtful.

Julie is an absolutely phenomenal cat sitter. We have four indoor cats ranging from a 12-year-old grumpy old girl to a stage 5 clinger orange kitten, all with very different personalities, routines, and RFID feeders — and she handles them flawlessly every single visit. She somehow brings out the best in each of them, which is no small feat in a multi-cat household. Her visit updates are fantastic and always include amazing photos (truly some of the best we’ve ever received). She’s attentive, communicative, and proactive — whether that means cleaning up the occasional, or not so occasional vomit, checking in about anything unexpected, or just making sure everyone is doing well. Julie consistently goes above and beyond by bringing in packages we inevitably have delivered while we’re gone and reaching out anytime something doesn’t seem quite right while she’s there. She has been sitting for us for over a year now, and I can honestly say I have zero worries when we’re on vacation or work trips knowing our cats are in her care. I’m always excited when Julie is available — she treats our cats like her own, and it shows. Highly, highly recommend.

Julie always does an amazing job!! Every day she sent multiple photos along with detailed updates about what each of the cats was up to, which is so appreacited while we're away. We have seven cats, each with their own unique personality, but Julie takes the time to get to know each of them and makes sure they all get the attention they need. Three of our cats are especially shy around new people, but she is incredibly patient, gentle, and encouraging. I truly wouldn't trust anyone else with my cats :)

Julie has been amazing as always, sending us multiple pictures and videos of our little ones so that we could be at ease during our trip. Since her previous visits, one of our cats started taking medication and she was great in giving him the pills. We are so glad to count on her during our trips!!

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 $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!
