I'm Scott | Cat Sitting in Bronx, NY

Hello! My name is Scott and I live in the Bronx with my wife and our 2 muffins: Mo (M, 16) and Timmy (F, 2). Both are rescues and 2 of the most important parts of our lives. My wife rescued Mo when he was a baby; his mom had been a mouser at pizza joint near Van Cortlandt Park. When Javi, his brother from another mother passed in 2020 we were devastated. Timmy (whom we originally thought was a boy) came into our lives at the perfect time. We had been on the Beth Stern waiting list, and little Timmy was a solo kitten that she would not have had room for. We opened our home and our hearts...and she filled that empty space immediately. I am a stage/TV actor and musician who has a lot of free time when in the city, so helping people take care of their cats would be a drea...

Learn More About Scott

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I've been cat sitting with Meowtel for just about a year and a half and I LOVE it! I know how anxious my wife and I get being away from our cats, so I like being able to provide that peace of mind to other cat owners.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

It's fun to be able to meet other cat owners in my area, and to have a little playtime with new feline friends! I think it also teaches me a bit more about my own cats every time I meet someone else's furry friend.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I sat for a couple with three distinctly different cats; a kitten less than a year old, a "teenage" cat, and an elderly cat. I got to play with each of them in such different ways, and it got me used to dealing with a pretty different feeding regimen for them as well. The kitten was the absolute cutest and climbed me like a jungle gym.

Scott went above and beyond to take care of my cat! He was extremely communicative, helped make sure that she was given plenty of attention, and even did a litter run when the bag I had ordered was stolen. I cannot recommend Scott enough as a catsitter!

Scott is a great catsitter and gave us peace of mind on our 5-day vacation. Scott came for an initial visit and amazingly understood all of our instructions right away. He has his own cats and just gets cats. He was completely reliable in his visits and a great communicator.

Scott was great - a pleasure on our meet-and-greet, he asked a lot of questions, when booked he came on time, alerted us, took videos and photos, played with cats, stayed the requested amount of time - such peace of mind! We will definitely book him again!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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.
