Enjoy a 10% discount on your first booking with me, automatically applied at checkout :) Growing up on a small farm, I was always surrounded by a multitude of pets, from dogs to chickens to, of course, cats! My love for animals has only increased as I've gotten older, and I've been a cat mom for over 15 years. I currently live with Ella, my 10 year old Maine coon mix (starring in my gallery photos). I am based in Bushwick, Brooklyn and regularly cat sit in the area, including Bushwick, Ridgewood, East Williamsburg, Williamsburg, and some parts of BedStuy (please contact me prior to booking if you live in Bedstuy - I can only service areas off the J train at this time). I also care for several feral colonies in Brooklyn, and am known for always traveling with cat treats wherever I go! From the many years I've spent with my own pets to the hours I've dedicated to my neighborhood's ferals, I have extensive experience caring for cats of all br...

Marina's Reviews
Jackson
As always (we are regulars with Marina now), Marina did a great job watching our cat. She is great at charming our somewhat shy cat, and I can definitely tell he feels safe around her. She sends the best pictures, and very thorough updates as well.
Jessica
Marina took amazing care of my two cats, and expertly gave one of them medication when she unexpectedly had a uti return and needed antibiotics. She also was very accommodating when our flight was canceled and pushed back to the next day. Our whole little fam is thankful to have found her!

Frequently Asked Questions
Brooklyn 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.
