My name is Sharm and I am a long time pet parent as well as was a vet technician for 12 years. I became certified in fear free handling of pets as well and worked with an animal behaviorist when working in office. I am skilled in pet sitting for cats and have professional experience in administration of medications if needed. I am patient, gentle and kind, especially with kitty friends who need a little extra time to become acclimated with new humans. When pet sitting, I treat the kitties as if they were my own, your family is my family while you are away.

Learn More About Sharm

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

My favorite cat sitting was a cat named Lily, every visit she would hop up on her cat tree first thing and I would brush and pet her for 10 minutes. Once that was complete, she would lead me to her food bowl to let me know she was ready for her meal! Then she would hop back on her pedestal and sit to wait for her medication.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have four cats: Ashton 13 years old, Trista 13 years old, Bubbles 12 years old and Bean 7 years old.

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

Cats that are particularly anxious get the time they need to process. Sometimes that means laying on the floor silently, sometimes that means visualizing them for their kitty parents and providing a picture and progress report!

My cat and I both love Sharm! She is affectionate and attentive and keeps me informed with how Snowball is doing. She even alerted me to a health issue with Snowball that a recent vet visit had missed! I always miss my boy when I’m gone, but I know he is in great hands.

We highly recommend Sharm! Sharm was an excellent communicator from the time we requested booking and throughout. She sent us pictures of our fur babies on every visit while we were away which helped us feel at ease. She did all we requested and more.

Sharm was amazing! From the start, I knew my cat would be in great hands. The initial outreach and conversation was friendly and wonderful, and it just got better from there.. Sharm genuinely loves animals and knows exactly what she's doing. My pet could not wait to greet her when she came, loved the attention she gave him, and was so happy, he forgot to be mad at me for taking a trip. I would recommend Sharm to everyone and anyone looking for a caring pet sitter who will also be communicative and give you price of mind. Thank you, Sharm!!

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!
