About Delco Cat SITTING
Welcome to Delco Cat Sitting
At Delco Cat Sitting, we know cats aren’t low-maintenance—they’re high priority. Cats aren’t background noise in your life—they’re the heart of the home. That’s why our care goes beyond basics like scooping litter or filling a bowl. We’re here to reduce stress, ease boredom, and offer the kind of companionship that helps your cat feel calm, safe, and totally in charge (just the way they like it).
Every cat is different, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Some are couch-napping champions, others are laser pointer athletes, and let’s not forget the masters of the judgmental stare. We’re equal parts cat whisperer and treat dispenser, ready to tailor every visit to your floofs exact needs—whether they want all the snuggles or just a polite nod from across the room.
Meet The Owner
LaurA Kalantaridis
Hi, I’m Laura Kalantaridis—lifelong animal lover, experienced pet care pro, and the heart behind Delco Cat Sitting.
With over 20 years in the animal care world, I’ve done it all: shelter work, vet hospitals, volunteering with rescues by fostering kittens, and running my own pet sitting business. I’ve worked with cats of every personality—from couch loafers to curtain climbers—and built my reputation on compassion, patience, and that sixth sense true cat people seem to have.
Before Delco Cat Sitting, I ran Kritter Kids Pet Sitting for six years. When the pandemic hit, I scaled back—but a few beloved clients wouldn’t hear of it, and I kept caring for a small circle of cherished floofs while diving back into rescue work. Through fostering, I’ve cared for dozens of cats and kittens—each with their own quirks, charms, and occasionally, dramatic flair. (You haven’t lived until a three-pound kitten tries to intimidate you with a hiss that sounds like a squeaky toy.)
Delco Cat Sitting was born from a simple truth: cats deserve specialized care from someone who gets them. I believe in tailoring every visit to meet your cat’s unique needs—whether they’re social butterflies or champions of the under-bed hiding spot.
I’m committed to lifelong learning, too—always trying to learn something new in feline behavior, health, and enrichment so I can offer the best possible care. Because your cat isn’t just a pet—they’re your family, and they deserve a sitter who understands that bond (while also knowing where you keep the good treats).

The Feline Dream Team!
Twitch
Senior Staff & Chair Warmer in Chief
Years of Service: 16 (though he swears he invented napping)
Favorite Treat: The one you have
Reliable. Unflappable. Slightly grumpy if woken from a nap. Twitch keeps all seats warm and all tech gear slightly furred. Nobody knows how he does it, but we assume wizardry.
Jade (aka Smooshy)
Director of Fun & Treat Procurement
Years of Service: 3
Favorite Treat: Anything from the “special” cat drawer
Lover of crinkle balls, lap dives, and anything shaped like a snack. Smooshy oversees daily joy levels and makes sure no toy goes untested—or snack un-sampled.
Ruff
Assistant Manager of All the Things
Years of Service: 7
Favorite Treat: If it has cheese on it, watch out!
Keeps the others in line. Ruff manages meetings (by sitting in the middle of them) and takes her role of Middle Sibling Supervisor very seriously.
The Bun
House Manager & Foster Floof Coordinator
Years of Service: Undisclosed (per company policy)
Favorite Treat: Thin apple slices—peeled, if you please
The boss behind the scenes. From his secret forts and blanket dens, The Bun oversees foster operations, bunny business, and proper kitten etiquette—mostly by nose nudges and gentle grunts until things get done.
