Cat Sitting in Saint Louis, MO

Hello! My name is Sydney and I have been working with cats for years now. I work at Mauhaus, which is a cat café in Maplewood.

My name is Sydney and I have been working with cats for years now. I work at Mauhaus, which is a cat café in Maplewood. I’ve also done volunteer work with Stray Haven Feline Rescue for around 4 years. Not only can I give medication, I can also give insulin shots, as I have a diabetic cat myself. I understand the trust that goes into a cat sitter, and I guarantee I’ll do my best to accommodate for your cat’s specific needs. My favorite part of cat sitting is sending photo updates, especially if they’re silly. I look forward to meeting your babies!

Learn More About Sydney

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

I’ve been cat sitting since I was around 14. Cats are my favorite part of life, which led me to continue cat sitting, volunteering, and getting my job at Mauhaus Cat Café. It’s extremely fufilling to know I can make sure each cat feels safe and comfortable, even if they want nothing to do with me.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 4 cats! Stripe (the old man), Louie (the crazy one), Sage (the odd ball), and Puck (the spicy one) are my pride and joy. I would happily sell all my possessions to give them more toys and treats

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

I’ll always begin with addressing any specific needs a cat may have (ex. feeding times, medical information, likes/dislikes, etc.). Then, i’d go over the duration of the stay and whether or not I am wanted to stay overnight, and how often I am needed to check in and when. If there are questions, I’d answer them as best as I could!

I cannot overstate how grateful I am to have met Sydney through this app! She was communicative throughout our trip, sending so many pictures of my sweet baby to me. She knew I had a concern about a bald spot on his head, and made sure to take some time to test for fleas and share her knowledge and experience. Sydney was so sweet and I felt so comfortable and reassured by her. We will absolutely be booking 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.

Saint Louis cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. 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!
