I'm Lyanny
Cat Sitting in New Haven, CT
I’m patient, atten... Hi, I’m Lyanny! I have over 10 years of professional pet care experience with the privilege of caring for pets of all kinds. I am the Manager of Mew Haven Cat Cafe and directly work alongside our partner rescue’s farm with over 90 cats! I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routines, and needs.
I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I adapt my care to what makes them happiest and love to send photos and videos so you don’t miss your fur baby too much!
I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and treating your pet like family 💕
Learn More About Lyanny
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I work at a cat cafe with 30 cats in the space and 15 people at a time each hour coming and going so I am extremely careful. I crack open the door slowly and have my leg blocking just in case there’s a dasher present. I’ve seen so many horror stories and so absolutely no outdoors for cats, everything is secured and clean if I notice anything I will clean up and inform you!
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes! I actually don’t participate in festivities so it’s my favorite time of the year getting to meet so many new babies to care for! I know trusting someone to watch over your pet while you’re away is always nerve wrecking but you can be rest assured and stress free during your celebrations! I send detailed updates everyday, photos and videos so you’re kept up to date at all times.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Every cat is different, some cats may establish their boundaries and not want to interact until they’re ready; others may be shy but are seeking that comfort to be able to trust you. I’ve worked with so many personalities so even if your cat prefers to play, get pet, or wants quiet companionship I don’t mind admiring from afar!

Lyanny took care of our five cats while we were away for a few days. One of our cats is 17, with some medical challenges (diabetes requiring twice daily insulin injections, and arthritis). Lyanny was absolutely beyond amazing. She truly loves and cares for cats, and their wellbeing was paramount to her. She got to know each of our cats, with their very unique personalities. Lyanny visited twice each day, and sent us detailed and beautifully written accounts of each visit. She happens to be a very talented cat photographer, and she took the best photos we have ever seen of all our cats. She gave us peace of mind, especially with our senior tabby lady. The cats clearly loved having her around! We will absolutely hire her for all our cat sitting needs. She’s seriously great at what she does. We are grateful to have found her.

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.
New Haven cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $33.00. 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!
