Learn More About Alison

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Pippi - (like Pippi Longstockings) is a 5 year old calico with no teeth, who is a total lap cat and is scared of tinfoil Russell - a 2 year old typical orange boy (HUGE and fluffy, crazy and feisty, but oh so sweet) My childhood cat Dusty was a black cat who lived to 19 years old. A former outdoor cat, she loved our trips to Central Park in her carrier.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

Once your reservation is confirmed, I will connect with you to schedule a complimentary meet and greet. I find it's important for your cat to be introduced to me prior to the reservation, so there is less stress and anxiety for your kitty when you're away, because they already know me. And of course it's great to meet you, too! ;) I sometimes like to visit around meal time, so you can show me exactly how you feed your cat. I always take notes on the details of the portion and any other specifics, to replicate exactly for your cat(s) while you're gone. After some playtime with your cat(s), we will exchange contact information so you can reach me, then I always test the key in the lock before I leave the meet and greet. During your reservation, expect lots of pictures and videos each time I visit!

Are you usually available during holidays?

With advance notice, I can be available for most holidays. You can travel with the peace of mind knowing your cat is in good hands while you're away.

Alison is incredibly caring and thoughtful. My cat clearly enjoys her company! When I returned, I noticed my cat was much more relaxed. Alison even brought him some toys, which was such a kind and personal touch. She also helped by trimming some matted fur, ensuring he was as comfortable as possible. I also got timely updates with photos and videos which really helped me feel comfortable knowing my fur baby was doing okay. Overall, she did a fantastic job. I highly recommend her for her excellent and attentive care!

Alison is friendly, attentive and reliable. She asked very good questions and I see how seriously she takes her position. Our two boys took to her immediately and she was incredibly flexible on a holiday weekend. We are so lucky to have found her!

Alison took fantastic care of my 2 cats over a week and a half! She was able to win over my cat who is verrrry wary of strangers on her first visit. Her updates and pictures/videos of my cats were perfect and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away.

Alison was a FANTASTIC catsitter for my 2 little dudes! My very anxious cat who usually hides whenever someone comes over, he ran right up to Alison and warmed up so quickly. I really appreciated receiving lots of pictures/videos and updates while I was away. It was clear when I got home that my cats were extremely well taken care of.

Alison was incredibly thorough and provided timely, detailed updates throughout her time caring for my cat. She made sure my cat’s food and water were well taken care of and spent quality time playing with him. My cat clearly enjoyed her company, and I could tell she made him feel comfortable. Alison’s care and attention truly eased my anxiety, and the pictures and videos truly made me so happy knowing my fur baby was well taken care of while I was away. I can’t recommend her enough! I’m so glad I met Alison through Meowtel!!

Alison was a great cat-sitter! My two cats are very shy at beginning. Alison patiently found them from their hiding place, made friendly contact to gain their trust. After a few visits, my cats started to greet her when she visited and followed her around! Alison took great pictures of both cats for every visit and sent to me. She communicated timely for questions or concerns. One of my cats needs daily insulin injection. Alison quickly learned it during our meet&greet session and did it for my cat while caring for them. This was a big relief for me. overall, I am very happy with Alison's work! My cats also became more and more attached to her near the end of my vacation 🙂 I highly recommend Alison to anyone who is looking for a loving and responsible cat-sitter!

Alison was personable, detailed & trustworthy. Sylvester loved her. They made biscuits together, had lots of playtime and snuggles. She was very responsible with ensuring he received his supplements and followed specific instructions. We received consistent updates, photos & a sweet note that she left to welcome us back. PURRfect cat nanny! My only criticism is that we haven't figured out how to clone her!😻

This was my second time using Ali, and it went great! I think my cats actually remembered her from the last time because they warmed right up to her. I received so many cute photos and videos from her that I felt totally at ease while I was away. I will definitely use her again in the future!

Alison was fantastic. I was hesitant to leave my four year old re-homed cat, who is still bonding with me and his new home. He is also on a special diet, so he required two daily visits for three days. She was so kind and sent me constant updates, including pictures. My cat, Mac, was perfectly content when I came home and my home was exactly as I left it. I highly, highly recommend Alison!

Alison was amazing! We needed a last minute cat sitter because ours fell through and she opened up her availability to help us out. She send daily pictures and videos of pickle and made an effort to help her warm up as a very shy cat. Alison went above and beyond and we are so thankful ❤️

Alison was amazing! I felt so at easy with her daily updates, photos and videos. I have two very shy cats and they hide under the bed, that wasnt an impediment for her to look for them just to make sure they were ok and take videos without making them uncomfortable. So thankful for her 🤗

Alison was amazing! She came both morning and night and spent time with dutchess. She’s an oldie but a goodie at 18 years old and Alison was great petting her and playing with her. I was gone for 7 days so it was a concern for me being she had never been alone (I inherited her in September) and I had zero worries the entire time I was gone. I got daily texts, pictures and messages updating me on dutchess and I could see she was happy and felt very comfortable with Alison. She also looked out for my plants so I didnt come home to them all dried out. Would recommend to anyone, you will be happy with your decision and be able to enjoy your travels or just day to day.

Alison was great!! She took care of our cats around Thanksgiving. This was our first experience leaving our babies with a sitter and while we were very nervous about the whole thing Alison took amazing care of our boys. They warmed up to her right away and there were zero issues. We felt very comfortable leaving them with Alison after our meet and greet. Alison followed all our instructions for our kitties needs. She updated us with pictures and videos every day while we were away. Definitely choose Alison as your next sitter!

Alison was the perfect cat sitter! The meet & greet process was seamless, and she asked a lot of thorough, thoughtful questions. I felt very comfortable leaving my cat under her watch. I was gone for a week, and she sent an update every day. She sent some cute photos, as well as updates on her behavior. Alison even offered to water my plants while I was away! She brought a moisture meter and made sure to check the soil before watering. She was very responsive to any message on the app. When I returned, everything was super clean and organized, and Cece seemed like she had a great week. Do yourself a favor and have Alison watch your cat next time you're away. I'll be sure to!

Frequently Asked Questions

Hudson cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. 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.
