Learn More About Sydney
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
My favorite part about cat sitting is when a cat truly becomes comfortable with you. Many cats can be scared at first, so it is the most special moment when a cat decides that you are a human they can trust.
What is your favorite cat toy?
Everyone knows that a cat’s favorite toy is a box or something that is not supposed to be a toy. However, my favorite cat toy is a treat puzzle or foraging toy that keeps cat’s minds sharp and entertained.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Cats are intelligent and can be wary of strangers. I respect their boundaries and listen to body language with every cat. I have cared for several timid cats where I will give them space and let them approach me. I will often sit in the room with them while they adjust to my preference. I will also offer treats and toys as their pet-parent is comfortable.

Richmond 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 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!
