I'm Najood

Cat Sitting in Brooklyn, NY

Hi there! My name is Najood. You can call me Jude, for short! I live in Brooklyn with my partner and our two sister kitties, Kiki & Mezcal.

I grew up in a home with five rescue cats and was involved in TNR efforts from the age of 10. I’m an animal lover, but cats especially are extremely dear to me. My friends call me the crazy cat lady and I think it’s an honor!

I have experience with shy/timid cats, big personalities (even the tough ones), and can handle multi-cat homes, including if they need to be separated for mealtime or need separate play time...
Hi there! My name is Najood. You can call me Jude, for short! I live in Brooklyn with my partner and our two sister kitties, Kiki & Mezcal.

I grew up in a home with five rescue cats and was involved in TNR efforts from the age of 10. I’m an animal lover, but cats especially are extremely dear to me. My friends call me the crazy cat lady and I think it’s an honor!

I have experience with shy/timid cats, big personalities (even the tough ones), and can handle multi-cat homes, including if they need to be separated for mealtime or need separate play time.

When I come in for a Meet&Greet, I’m very thorough about getting all the information I need from feeding schedules, to vet information, medications, and favorite toys. I am attentive to detail, excellent at reading cats’ body language, and I care as deeply for people’s pets as I do my own.

You can count on me to send you great photos/videos of your furry friend, to be reliable and on time, to be attentive to any specific needs, and to alert you should anything with your pet or your home be out of the ordinary while you are away.

I look forward to meeting your cat and becoming besties!! 🐈🐈‍⬛

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Make sure to hire a cat sitter who is patient and understanding of your cat’s individual needs. And someone who is compassionate and takes the time to get to know and build a real relationship with your cat(s).

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I am diligent when entering/exiting the home to ensure that a cat who may linger close to the front door does not get out. I ensure that the home remains a good temperature while the owners are away and would alert them to anything out of the ordinary should it arise in their home or with their cat (i.e not eating/drinking, acting strange) I double check all doors, windows/screens etc are closed and locked before I exit. I keep a close eye on water bowl and feeder levels and top up as needed.

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite cat toy would have to be a feather or mouse wand. I love how diverse it is for play time!

Najood was wonderful! Prompt, communicative, very caring, and good with pet meds. Her daily updates were very detailed, explaining exactly what they did during her session and several great photos of the visit! We couldn't be happier with the job Najood did!

From our meet and greet to the last visit, Jude is a true professional and everything you’d want in a sitter. She kept me up to date with detailed texts and photos, and made sure Ben was well-loved with play time and pets. Even when I had a snafu with the auto feeder, Jude ensured it was in working order on her next visit. She put me completely at ease, especially with this being my first time away from my cat. I highly recommend her, and will be a return client!

Najood was a great Catsitter for my holiday week! She was very attentive to my Cat's needs and spent the time to play with her and send detailed updates. The photos were also top-notch. She was on-time for each visit and was good at communicating scheduling.

We had a great experience with Najood watching our cats, Chauncifer and Clementine. From our initial meet and greet onward, we could tell that Najood is extremely attentive, detail-oriented, and attuned to cats. Her thorough updates and photos gave us peace of mind that our kitties were thriving. We would definitely trust Najood with Clem & Chauncey again!

Najood was an excellent caretaker for our shy orange tabby. She’s communicative and knowledgeable about cats - we could immediately tell our cat would be in good hands, and he warmed up to her incredibly quickly. She also provided thorough updates and pictures throughout. Would love to work with her again!

Najood is a gem of a cat sitter!! She's detail orientated, communicative, and above all was great with my cats. She was fantastic with the meet and greet - took some excellent notes and even noticed a health condition I missed out on. She took some quality photos, provided great updates, and was so so affectionate with my cats. It was great to know that my cats were getting the requisite amount of pets and treats while I was gone.

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 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!
