I’m Ryan, I’m a writer who works from home, have my own 2 cats who I’ve been caring for for 6 years now, and absolutely love. I’m a big softie for cats, and part of the reason I love my work is that it lets me stay home with them and spend quality time with them all day. At the same time, I’d love more excuses to get out of the house and meet more pet friends! I’m organized, punctual, and low key, and I’m very good at making friends with cats. Please give me the chance to care for yours!

Learn More About Ryan

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I’ve cat sat for friends at least 5 or 6 times in the past and care for two of my own.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I do, I’ve had them for 6 years, they are me daughters! Their names are Habibi & Euclid, they’re my favorite thing about my life 🥰

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

Give them time and space and security! The most important thing is that they know I’m here and will provide for their needs, but don’t need or expect them to engage with me more than they want to. Food, water, space, whatever they need they’ll get, and yeah, if they end up wanting pets that’s something the can get too :)

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!
