I'm Airyn

Cat Sitting in Manhattan, KS

Hi! My name is Airyn, and I’m a K-State student! I’ve spent my whole life around cats - I come from a cat family! I have experience with all kinds of cats and their unique personalities - shy, older cats, young, energetic troublemakers, cats with health issues, and everything in between. I also have experience caring for kitties who need medicine or extra care. I... Hi! My name is Airyn, and I’m a K-State student! I’ve spent my whole life around cats - I come from a cat family! I have experience with all kinds of cats and their unique personalities - shy, older cats, young, energetic troublemakers, cats with health issues, and everything in between. I also have experience caring for kitties who need medicine or extra care. I love ALL cats and have always been a cat person! I let every cat choose how they want me to care for them when their person is gone - whether they want lots of attention… or they only want me to feed them and be on my way! I also have volunteered at the Humane Society spending time with cats, so I know how to approach a new kitty who isn’t sure about strangers.

Learn More About Airyn

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love meeting new kitties and learning about their unique personalities- my favorite thing about cats is how special each one is!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have one cat at my college apartment- her name is Millie and she’s quite a troublemaker! I also have multiple kitties at home, and my childhood cat was my best friend for 15 years - her name was Kei!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

Some kitties are more anxious than others, and that’s okay - my cat was like that when we adopted her as a kitten. I like to give cats time to approach me on their own terms, but also give them space if they need it.

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.

Manhattan cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $20.00. 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!
