I'm Abbie
Cat Sitting in Minneapolis, MN
I’ve had Bisquick and Bonsai for just over two years. They are playful, curious, and cuddly little ladies who bring so much joy to my life!
I’m happy to adjust a cat sitting visit based on the needs of you and your cat(s), including:
*Filling food and water - washing bowls as-needed
*Emptying litter box(es) and cleaning
*Active play (wand toy, fetch, etc... With two cats of my own, I know how crucial it is to have a trusted, reliable pet sitter on hand when you’re out of town, and how regular updates with pictures can offer such peace of mind!

*Emptying litter box(es) and cleaning
*Active play (wand toy, fetch, etc.)
*Setting up enrichment activities
*Chill time - for the cat who likes a person in their space, but not all up in their business!
*Photo/video updates - so you don’t have to miss a moment of their sweetness!
*Simple house sitting tasks, such as bringing in packages and watering plants
I’m especially keen on making sure cats get plenty of play and enrichment time, and I’m happy to set up enrichment activities for your cats, too! (Some of my girls’ favorites are treat scavenger hunts and blanket forts)

Learn More About Abbie
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love knowing that I’m giving families peace of mind and the ability to enjoy their time away from home! I want you to have a guilt-free trip knowing that your furry family member(s) are being well cared for!
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes! My cats Bonsai and Bisquick bring so much joy to my life! They are Siberian cats, and sisters from the same litter. They are so curious and energetic! One of my favorite things they do is when they insist on smelling each ingredient while I’m cooking. I call them my little sous-chefs!
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
We’ll schedule a complimentary “Meet and Greet” with you and your cat(s). This visit is all about making sure that I’m the right fit, and that you feel confident having me look after your furry family members! I will have read your cat’s profile in advance, and ask follow up questions during our visit to make sure I fully understand your cat’s needs, routines, and preferences.
Are you usually available during holidays?
This depends on the holiday, but I keep my availability up to date! I do not charge holiday surge pricing.
What is your favorite cat toy?
I love when a cat has a nontraditional favorite toy! My cats Bisquick and Bonsai love the pull tabs from my milk jugs and sticky notes (very cute) and Bisquick loves chewing on the silicone band of my running watch (slightly less cute).
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
With new cats, I follow their lead by letting them initiate pets, and I pay careful attention to their body language to make sure they aren’t overstimulated or anxious. I don’t rush or force them to accept pets or being picked up. I’ll speak in gentle, calming tones and move slowly. With a longer visit, I’ll sit for awhile to let them grow accustomed to me, perhaps with a toy or treat to make my presence a bit more intriguing. Some cats will prefer to remain out of sight or out of reach, and that’s totally okay, too!

Abigail was so lovely! She communicated well, provided timely updates consisting of photos and video, and made good friends with my cats in only a short amount of time. My auto feeder jammed while I was away, and she even offered to troubleshoot it for me. Would absolutely book with her again!

Abigail watched my two cats for a long weekend getaway. My cats have specific dietary needs and one is special needs with having 3 BBs in her still from when she was a kitten that can’t be removed. Abigail did great playing with them, feeding and caring for them. She sent messages and photos on each visit. I didn’t have to stress.

Abigail was great with our kitties. She was very responsive and understanding. She was able to coax our shy calico into some much needed play time as well as giving our reluctant newly indoor cat the attention he’s been missing. Would highly recommend!

Abigail took amazing care of our two kittens! She took the time to get to know us and the cats before we left and we knew they would be in great hands. This was our first take away from the cats and was wonderful to know they were being truly cared for. We look forward to having Abigail care for them in the future!

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.
Minneapolis cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $29.00. 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!
