GENERAL AVAILABILITY NOTICE: If you are an existing client and see days blocked off, please get in touch -- I can usually accommodate you and will open the days for your booking if so. Hello Meowtel Cat Families! I'm a life-long cat carer with particular experience working with special needs cats. I have experience with kittens, geriatric cats, feral rescues, and cats receiving cancer and other medical care. I know that each cat has a unique personality and that all cats tell us what they need if we just take the time to listen. I love playing with social cats, but also respect that some cats just want to hang out quietly, either with me or in their favorite hiding space. Because of my experience working with feral rescues, I am also comfortable with cats that might hiss, scratch, or otherwise respond intensely to a change in their environment and usual care routine. I get it, we're all creatures of habit. And I'm happy to work with those cats to make your time away as stress-free as possible for them. Please note: For cats that need insulin injections or subcutaneous fluids, I requ...

Racheline's Reviews
Sara
Really appreciated Rachelines help this week! Despite our vacation being cancelled due to a broken leg, she still offered to help out and it made a world of a difference to have the extra care given to our kitties. She also provided oral medication to our cat and made it look so easy (it’s not) so that provided peace of mind too.
Sue
Based on her photos, it’s clear that Oscar & Felix have taken quite a shine to Racheline. Racheline is truly a cat whisperer, quick with practical advice and support. She’s professional, and so easy to work with. I don’t worry for a second when the boys are in her care, which is why I have her booked for another trip later this month!
Carly
Racheline was great! jumped into giving my cat his insulin shots confidently and made him comfortable right away.
Tim
Racheline is a cat expert! We will happily ask her to watch after our feline friend the next time we're away.
Simone
This was my first time hiring a cat sitter, and Racheline was so reassuring! I got daily updates with photos, which I really appreciated. Racheline is a true professional, and I'd recommend her to anyone worried about being away from their cat.

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 $33.00. 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.
