Cat Sitting in Brooklyn, NY

I love animals and most of all, my 11-year-old baby Mainecoon Loki! I love him so much that I flew him back to New York from the Peace Corps.

I have had all kinds of pets: cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, even a goat at one point! I love all animals but there is a special place in my heart for cats. I have had Loki since he was a baby. I genuinely love playing with and caring for pets and, without furbabies, my life feels...
I love animals and most of all, my 11-year-old baby Mainecoon Loki! I love him so much that I flew him back to New York from the Peace Corps.

I have had all kinds of pets: cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, even a goat at one point! I love all animals but there is a special place in my heart for cats. I have had Loki since he was a baby. I genuinely love playing with and caring for pets and, without furbabies, my life feels like it is missing something.

I work in a nonprofit trying to alleviate poverty and hardships for low-income people in the US and abroad. It can be emotionally intense and I can't think of a better way to spend my free time than taking care of your cat/s!

I have been fully vaccinated and boosted so you have nothing to worry about! I have elderly, high-risk parents so conduct myself with caution in public spaces.

Maha is excellent! While we were away, she took good care of our older cat who is very particular with food and needs medicine as well as our younger guy who has a lot of energy.

Always great when Maha can spend some quality time with our cats. We’ve been having her stay with them for years now and she’s always super helpful when traveling hiccups happen, if we forget to replenish treats, etc. Will continue booking her when possible!

Thank you, Maha. I was so worried to leave TT on his own while away. Your care, attention and kindness won him over from an anxious, feisty and territorial kitty to an accepting sweet boy that i know him to be. Your detailed daily messages, photos and videos were a huge help in relieving my anxiety as well.

Maha is an incredible sitter, having quickly charmed our extremely shy cat and showering our pets with so much attention when we’re away. She always goes above and beyond, too, like bringing calming treats the other day for one of our cats who was having anxiety issues. Your cats will be in such good hands with her!

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!
