I'm Melissa | Cat Sitting in Brooklyn, NY
*For the rest of the month through Labor Day, I am only able to offer 20 min reservations. This will open up in the fall. I have been the go-to cat sitter for a number of friends and co-workers long before the online accessibility of platforms such as Meowtel. As a traveler who lives with cats, I understand the peace of mind of having someone care for your bestie while being away on vacation, business or emergency trips. Cats need company and people need the reassurance that while away, all will be taken care of. I will work hard to make sure your trip is stress-free and that your feline companion is living their best life while you’re away from home. About 5 years ago, I was out of town for an entire summer for work and had a great cat sitter taking care of my cat. When my cat became unexpectedly very sick, it was such a relief that he was there to take care of her, take her to the vet, monitor her progress and send me updates. I would hope to be able to provide that level of confidence for fellow cat owners when they travel. I also consider myself a bit of a cat photographer so IF your cat is a willing model, there will be photo shoots! ...

Melissa was amazing, and we couldnt’t recommend her more highly. She was great with our cats and provided hands down the best updates we’ve received from a sitter. Great communication, super helpful, and the cats clearly enjoyed her visits. I just hope she’ll be available next time we’re away! Thanks Melissa!

This is our second time booking Melissa, she is great as always! Lots of cute pics and a detailed update every day. She treated our kitty to a great time every visit. Thanks Melissa!

Melissa goes above and beyond to take care of your furbaby exactly as that particular creature needs to be cared for. She is reliable, communicative, generous, and kind. She always knows how to break through to our very, very shy cat (she did so in record speed!), and she always makes a point to play with both of our cats, which they adore. I couldn’t recommend Melissa highly enough.

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee
We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
