we’ve had Somen for nearly two years now and while he is constantly affectionate with us, he has never once approached a stranger. he would hide for 6 days straight if there was any traffic in and out of the apartment. Esther had him literally eating out of her hand by the end of our vacation. im not really sure how this is possible but she did if.

I had not left my cat, Gigi, alone overnight since I adopted her over a year ago so I was pretty nervous about how she might react while I was away for an entire week. Gigi can also be particular about her eating habits so I was concerned about whether she would stop eating entirely. Esther was extremely communicative and flexible, adjusting Gigi’s eating schedule as needed. I am one of those over the top pet parents who left a ton of information and instructions (too much info and instructions haha) but Esther took it all in stride and was very detail oriented. Her photos and videos of Gigi were adorable and her updates were detailed and put me at ease during my time away. I would not hesitate to book Esther again for a short or long trip. She also left Gigi a handmade catnip toy and some treats during the end of the booking which was a classy and personal touch.

Esther is amazing and even taught us a new trick to give our very feisty Bengal her medication! The kitties were very happy and her updates were thorough! She made going away so much easier!

This was my second time booking with Esther, and I am so grateful for her services! My cat, who is not usually very friendly, actually likes her! Esther is so attentive to detail and sends updates that put me at ease while traveling. I know my pet is in good hands, and will definitely be booking Esther again when I have to be away.

Esther took purrfect care of our 4 cats including one that is on cancer treatment at home. She enticed my skittish cats and played with them so they'd be mentally stimulated. she also sent regular updates with pics and video of our furries.

We are repeat clients of Esther's and she has been great each time, leaving our home spotless! Last time, she dealt with my Zeus being a little stressed out by our being gone really patiently and diligently when he tore into a plastic bag of treats; she spoke with our vet and monitored him to ensure he didn't swallow any plastic. This time, she took steps to keep him from doing the same thing, which we appreciated. Thank you again!

Our last Meowtel catsitter moved out of our area but luckily we found Esther and would 1000% book her again. We have a high needs older cat who needed twice a day visits and a slightly younger cat that can be distant/wary of new people but both animals warmed to her. She sent a ton of very cute photos during the two weeks we were gone and kept us updated in detail when she was concerned about one of the cats. We really appreciated her communication and her care, and are happy that we've found a new cat sitter!

We really appreciated having Esther catsit for us over the Christmas holiday! This is our second time having her catsit and both our elderly kitties love her. She is great with updates and prompt with messaging. We will definitely book her again!

I was scrambling to find someone to watch my cat while I was away for Christmas, and it was such a relief to find Esther. She accommodated my schedule and was absolutely wonderful! My cat loved her the minute she walked in for our meet and greet! She sent several pictures with updates each day and it truly the sweetest person! Will absolutely have her watch my cat again in the future.

I am so glad my first experience using a cat sitter was with Esther! She got along so well with my older cat, who is typically shy around new people. Even during the meet & greet, I could see they would be fast friends! Esther was very attentive to my cat's needs and instructions, and sent the best photos and videos that put my mind at ease while I was away. It was a little hard for me to try out this service, but Esther was amazing - I knew my Bella was in good hands. I will definitely want to book Esther for my future trips!

Esther was the perfect companion to our Zelda while we were away for the holidays! Her updates were so sweet and reassured us that our cat was in safe, capable hands. You could tell by the photos that Esther built trust quickly and our cat enjoyed her visits. Esther went above and beyond when our cat would try to break into her automatic feeder to ensure everything was back in place and she didn’t miss a meal. We couldn’t recommend Esther highly enough for your cat sitting needs!

Esther was a rockstar. When Brooklyn most recently flooded, our apt ceiling started leaking; she grabbed buckets and kept us consistently updated on the apt and the cats. She went above and beyond, while dealing with the rain on her own. I would definitely recommend and reserve again!

Esther took great care of our lovely little Jackie O while we were on holiday out of the country. Timely updates each day & photos showed Jackie as well cared for & happy, which is what we found when we came home too. Would definitely have Esther back!

Esther was a wonderful sitter, following instructions to a T. She also provided print updates and pictures, and my cat, who has somewhat of a difficult personality, seemed to be good with her. Would love to have her again.

Esther was amazing! She took excellent care of our two kitties. She was timely and detailed in her updates and took excellent photos and video! Our kitties are very outgoing and love human companionship - we we so glad they had Esther!

Esther did a great job with my shy but very affectionate kitty! I received many photos and videos from visits, along with updates on how my cat was doing. She seems like she did fine while I was away, and I could relax on my vacation knowing that Esther was taking good care of her while I was away!

Esther took care of my cat, Wooley, for a few days. Wooley is very shy around new people but wouldn’t hide with Esther! Esther sent many photos and videos which made me feel more at ease that Wooley was getting care and attention. Esther arrived on time for each visit and made sure to communicate with me frequently. Thank you, Esther!

Esther was great at communicating, sending photos & videos, and even feed our fish while we were away for the weekend. Reccomend!

Esther was so helpful and responsive- I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my kitty was well taken care of! She sent photos and videos during each one of her visits and was detail oriented in attending to my kitty’s needs!

This was my first time with Esther as the cat-sitter to my 3 cats, and it was a really wonderful experience! She was very timely with their feedings (my kitties are fed 4 times a day), sending photos at each feeding, in addition to photos and videos of them playing and hanging out a couple times each day. When I came home, my apartment was very clean, trash taken out, and the dishes were washed very well. I have a thing about well-washed dishes, and she did them better than any other cat-sitter I've had before, even without my mentioning it to her. She also left some sweet mementos for me that I really appreciated. Esther is very conscientious, and my cats seemed to really like her! I would hire her again in the future!

Esther was an amazing sitter for my cat Archie. She sent lots of photos and videos when she was with Archie and stayed in constant communication. I can't recommend her enough!
