I’m Sophia, a lifelong cat lover, proud cat mom of two spoiled fur babies, and a dedicated sitter with years of experience caring for cats of all kinds. I’ve volunteered in the past during kitten season at local southern shelters, so I’ve bottle-fed babies, soothed scared rescues, and earned the trust of even the shyest kitties. I truly believe every cat has their own unique personality and deserves gentle, patient care tailored to them. Whether your cat wants to play, snuggle, or just have someone quiet nearby, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and seen. I treat every kitty like family. 💕🐾

Learn More About Sophia

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have two kitties, one is Fiona I’ve had her for 13 years and she’s the love of my life. Ive watched her grow since she was a baby and had the privalege to have her around for this long and many more snuggling years to come! My second baby I rescued from the street as she was abandoned by her mother at only 4 weeks old and bottle fed her until she was big and strong. Today shes a zoomie girlie names Mazie. We call her “Crazy Mazie” but we love her energy!

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes! Feel free to book with me during holidays! I would love to care for your fur baby while you are away visiting family duirng the holidays. It would be my privalage!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

The key with anxious and timid cats is patience and building trust. Always allow them to come to you rather than forcing any interaction. Scent is important when building that trust allowing them to smell and observe you before anything. A calm and soothing voice is key when speaking to them building that vocal familiarity and creating safety. My fur baby Fiona is a very anxious cat so I am familiar with this behavior and how to make the sweet babies comfortable.

Sophia is responsible, attentive, and truly has a way with animals. My cats can be a bit particular, but they warmed up to her quickly. She followed their feeding routines, kept their litter boxes clean, and gave them plenty of playtime and affection. I always came home to calm, content kitties—which says a lot.

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!
