I'm Jeanne
Cat Sitting in Brooklyn, NY
I appreciate cats of all temperaments, whether affectionate lap cats, mischievious, playful cats, or shy companions who need their space.
I will leave your home just as you left it; I’m happy to send daily photo and text updates, or as often as you prefer... As a visual designer and cartographer, I work from home so I’ll be around a lot: your cats won’t be lonely. I am very neat and detail oriented; I’ll care for your cats with attentiveness and mindfulness.
I appreciate cats of all temperaments, whether affectionate lap cats, mischievious, playful cats, or shy companions who need their space.
I will leave your home just as you left it; I’m happy to send daily photo and text updates, or as often as you prefer. I’m comfortable giving oral medications and topical treatments. I’m especially good with shy and nervous cats, and I enjoy being able to provide comfort and reassurance to cats—and their humans, so you can enjoy your time away without worry.
My visits, long and short term, include regular feeding times, an always tidy litter box and fresh water bowl, as welll as the play, cuddles or just quiet companionship that your cat desires.
Some of my regular neighborhoods are Brooklyn, Manhattan, Astoria, Long Island City, Ridgewood, Sunnyside…

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I just really enjoy spending time with cats, getting to know them and caring for them. I enjoy earning their trust, interacting with them, and ensuring they feel comfortable and secure.
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes, I’m often available during holidays. My family abd friends are scattered across the globe so we prefer to visit during off-peak times in the year, and connect virtually during holidays.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
With timid or anxious cats I move slowly, speak gently, and let them set the pace, alliwing trust to build over time.

Jeanne was a fantastic sitter for us while we were out of town for 2 weeks. She was super responsible and responsive to our cats. They loved hanging out with her and she sent us tons of updates. She was very clean and a great house guest. Would definitely have her sit for us again!

This is the second time we have had Jeanne stay with our cats, and she was fabulous again. It is rare to find someone you can trust enough to mentally switch off and not worry about your pets while you are gone. Our cats are always relaxed and happy when we get back, and Jeanne is extremely responsible and communicative.

It was a pleasure to care for Princess and Viscountess again. They’re the politest cats imaginable, affectionate, and always entertaining. Freya is wonderful to work for: clear instructions, always responsive whenever I had a question, excellent communication throughout.

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 $31.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
