Brooklyn Cat Sitting

I'm Kate

Cat Sitting in Brooklyn, NY

Being a cat parent myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your fur babies, even when you have a pet sitter checking in on them. I get that worry, and my goal is to give you true peace of mind while you’re away. I make sure your cats are well cared for and comfortable, and I always send photos, videos, and detailed updates after each visit. If you don’t mind a little photo spam, I’m more than happy to send plenty of updates along the way.

Outside of cat sitting, I volunteer with a non-profit cat rescue group in Brooklyn, where I’m involved in TNR (Trap, Neuter, and Return) and fostering...

Outside of cat sitting, I volunteer with a non-profit cat rescue group in Brooklyn, where I’m involved in TNR (Trap, Neuter, and Return) and fostering. Through this work, I’ve gained extensive hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages and needs, from tiny bottle-fed kittens to senior and special-needs cats. I’m comfortable giving fluids, administering injections (such as insulin or B12), eye and ear medications, oral medications (pills or liquid), asthma inhalers, and syringe feeding.

Most importantly, I genuinely love cats, probably a little too much. I treat every cat as if they were my own, and I can’t wait to meet yours.

This was the first time for us to use a cat sitter and it went really well. Kate did an intro visit and asked really thoughtful questions to ensure she can take good care of our babies. She was very responsive and gave thorough updates after each visit with lots of cute photos - my cats are not very well socialsised towards strangers but they warmed up super quickly to Kate. I had peace of mind during my trip that everything is well at home.

Kate was AMAZING. I highly recommend booking with her! from extremely detailed updates to lots of pictures and videos, I always knew that my cat was in good hands. Kate came twice a day to give my cat his medication and have some playtime Willie I was away, and she always went above and beyond. I will be booking with her again!

Kate was so loving and caring with my two kitties! She sent detailed updates with photos and videos each day and went above and beyond to help troubleshoot a potential food allergy. She is very experienced and it was a relief to know they were in safe hands while I was away!

Kate is just amazing. I hired her for a second vacation, and she did such a great job. I have 5 cats who are not comfortable with strangers, but Kate quickly became their friend and was able to pet them. She followed instructions perfectly, was very punctual, and showed genuine care and concern for my cats. I got detailed reports after her visits including pictures. I am so relieved to have found someone I can trust with my cats. Thank you, Kate!!!!

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.

Brooklyn cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
