Once again Rachel was exactly what we needed! Her witty updates and attention to detail made me comfortable leaving our cat post-surgery with Rachel.

Rachel is great. Lily (my kitty) loves her, although it may be because she knows where the food is :). Rachel is quick to reply and flexible with coming in the mornings. This has been our second booking and I''m glad our kitty will have a consistent sitter when we are away.

Rachel is a dream cat sitter, who will not only go above and beyond for your pet but also has fantastic communication that puts your heart at ease while you’re away. She took care of our rambunctious fluff ball over Christmas and it was like a vacation for him too! Right from the start, Rachel was all ears about Bean's habits and favorites. While we were away, she sent the cutest updates—pics and videos included—so we knew Bean was having a blast without us. She made sure his routine stayed intact, and he was even more pampered than usual. If you need someone awesome to watch your cat, we can’t recommend Rachel enough. This was our second time booking her and it won’t be the last. Thanks a ton, Rachel, for being Bean's holiday hero!

Rachel was just what we needed! One of our kitties had surgery a few days before we left for the holidays and I felt confident leaving her with Rachel. She understood the importance of closely monitoring and administering oral medication, and was comfortable with our emergency care plan. Rachel asked many questions to make sure she understood our needs and sent frequent updates with photos from her visits. Both kitties looked forward to playtime with her!

Rachel is wonderful! She took such great care of our kitties and even got our shy girl playing! Updates were great and we loved all of the great pictures and videos, plus she was super helpful/accommodating when we had an issue with our front door key. Will definitely be booking with Rachel again!

I was so impressed by Rachel’s warm, efficient communication, her kindness, and her absolute affection for my sweet cat. We received picture updates and check ins with each visit and our gal seemed totally happy and at ease. Would absolutely work with Rachel again. In the future!

Rachel is an awesome catsitter! While we were away our cats unfortunately had some litter box issues, and Rachel handled it all with so much patience and professionalism. She also connected with our cats right away and shared regular updates to give us peace of mind.

I felt totally at ease with Rachel watching my kitty while away. During the meet & greet, she asked some great questions about her diet, habits & what the plan is for emergencies - total professional here! She sent daily updates of videos & photos so we can see how our queen was doing while away. Rachel & Lily got along great, will definitely request her when we go away next.

Rachel looked after our 5 m/o kitten, Cliff, for over a week, feeding him, giving him his medicine, and cleaning up after him. She did a great job keeping him company and giving him lots of much-needed play time. I highly recommend her and would be delighted to have her look after Cliff again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Albany cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $37.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
