I'm Cailyn | Cat Sitting in Astoria, NY
Hi everyone! I’m Cailyn. I live in Astoria, and I work in communications. I love to write, cook, embroider, read, and listen to music. I’ve always grown up with cats, and I currently have two of my own. Dart is an 10 year old tuxedo girlie, and Pabst is an 2 year old brown tabby guy. Dart is the cuddly one; she hops on to my chest and purrs every night before I go to sleep. Pabst is so energetic, he loves to play fetch and chase wand toys. They both bring me so much joy, and make our house a home. Every cat is unique, and I love to learn about their quirks and distinct personalities. I’m patient with cats on the shy side; boundaries are incredibly important to me and I promise to give your cats the same respect I’d want mine to receive. I also know how crucial playtime is to younger and/or more energetic kitties! I will keep their energy directed positively with toys and exercise. I’ve been catsitting with Meowtel for almost two years. It’s become a passion project for me, I prioritize connection and enrichment. I’m not just here to fill up food bowls! I promise to give your cat my undivided atte...

Cailyn's Reviews
George
Cailyn is an excellent choice for your cat-sitting needs. We got lots of photos and info on our furbaby’s comings and goings, and kept her active. Dee Dee likes to be around people and Cailyn was available to provide that high level of care.
Jeff
This is our third time using Cailyn for our cat, and we will definitely use her again. She takes great care of our cat, and communicates very well everything going on. We love the updates. I highly recommend her for your kitty.
Reid
Cailyn was great! She rose to the occasion of taking care of my playful cat and gave great updates!
Wendy
I'm an anxious person so leaving my cats and home in the hands of a stranger had my hackles up. Cailyn set me at ease. She treated our weirdo cats (who throw up and snarfle) as if they were her own, sent daily 'proof of life' updates, and fended off our hoover eater from our slow, picky eater. Thank you, Cailyn.
George
Cailyn is great at getting our cat out of hiding and out of her comfort zone. We noticed our cat being more relaxed when we got back from our trip. would book again!

Frequently Asked Questions
Astoria cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $35.00. 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.
