Learn More About Monique

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What I love most about cat sitting is getting to know each cat’s unique personality—no two are ever the same. Every time I care for a new kitty, it feels like welcoming a new little soul into my world. And when they become long-term clients, it’s even more special—I get to watch them grow, bond with them, and share in their milestones. I also have a passion for photography, and I genuinely believe cats are one of the most beautiful and expressive subjects to capture. Every visit is a chance to connect, care, and document their adorable moments.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Look for a cat sitter who truly understands feline behavior—not just someone who likes cats, but someone who gets them. Every cat has different needs, routines, and quirks, and a great sitter will take the time to learn and adapt. Don’t be afraid to ask questions about their experience, especially with medical care or shy cats. Trust your gut during the meet and greet—your cat’s comfort and your peace of mind matter most. And always choose someone who communicates well and sends regular updates—you deserve to feel confident and connected while you’re away.

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

I always start with a short meet & greet when possible so your cat can get used to my scent, voice, and presence while you’re still home. I also take that time to ask detailed questions about their routine, favorite toys, quirks, and any do’s and don’ts. On my first visit, I enter calmly and quietly, often with a spritz of Feliway and give the cat space to approach me on their terms. I speak softly, offer treats (if approved), and always respect their boundaries so we can build trust at their pace

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

As someone with nearly 10 years in veterinary medicine, safety is second nature to me. I always double-check that doors and windows are secure, make sure food, litter, and meds (if needed) are handled properly, and follow any specific instructions you leave. I also stay alert to changes in behavior or health and will never hesitate to reach out if something seems off. I treat your home with the same care and respect I give your cat—lights, locks, and routines are all followed exactly as requested to ensure peace of mind while you're away.

Frequently Asked Questions

Bronx cat sitting rates 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.
