Hi! My name is Grace, I’m 24 and live in Brooklyn, NY and will be attending medical school in NY next year.
I grew up taking care of my 2 cats (Peanut and Peter) from when I begged my parents to get them when I was 13, so I have significant experience in playing with and taking care of cats. Being around cats recharges me and brings me joy, and I would love to have the opportunity to meet and take care of your beloved cat, whether they are extroverted, shy, or would prefer to hide out under the bed all day!

Learn More About Grace

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love cats because my personality aligns more with cats. I also need time before being comfortable with someone and am picky with my affections. I think it is rewarding to earn a cat’s trust and affection, and it truly brightens my day to be around cats.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 2 cats (currently at my parent’s place): Peanut and Lila. Peanut is an older cat and very laid back and chill while Lila is younger and more playful so navigating their interactions and making sure they are both enterntained is always interesting whenever I am back home in California.

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

Definitely just giving them space and not forcing interaction. I would allow them to feel comfortable with me first and allowing them to come to me before jumping right into play.

Grace covered the evening visits for Simone for over 10 days and did a wonderful job! She was completely reliable with the routine, handling oral medication, feeding, and keeping the litter box clean. She communicated super clearly, understood all the instructions right away, and was kind enough to send daily updates and photos. We really appreciated her help and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!

Grace was an excellent communicator and took great care of our boys. She fed them, cleaned their box, and played with them every time she came over. She even dealt with a door lock incident. I highly recommend her!

I’m so happy to write a testimonial for Grace Hsu and her in-home cat sitting services. Grace is incredibly kind, attentive, and reliable. From the start, she was communicative, responsible, and clearly very knowledgeable about cat care. She took the time to understand routines, preferences, and any specific needs, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Grace is also preparing for medical school, and that level of intelligence, responsibility, and dedication truly shows in the way she approaches caring for others, including cats. She is detail-oriented, observant, and understands how important it is to provide not just basic care, but comfort, safety, and compassion. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the well-being of the cats she looks after. As a cat owner herself, Grace has firsthand experience and a natural ease around cats. She is patient, gentle, and attentive to their behaviors and moods. I felt completely confident leaving my home and cat in her care. I wholeheartedly recommend Grace to any cat parent looking for a trustworthy, intelligent, and compassionate in-home cat sitter. She truly goes above and beyond.

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 $29.00. 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!
