I’m a warm, dependable, and attentive cat sitter who truly enjoys caring for animals and helping pet parents feel at ease while they’re away.
I currently work as a private nanny while finishing school to become an early childhood educator. Caregiving, patience, and responsibility are at the center of my daily life. Both my work and studies have strengthened my ability to be observant, gentle, and consistent— qualities that also make for excellent pet care!
I understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or affectionate, I take the time to follow their routine closely and make sure they feel safe and respected in their own space. I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, litter care, playtime, companionship, and updates so you can relax knowing your cat is well cared for.
My goal is to create a calm, trustworthy experience for both you and your cat. I look forward to meeting your feline family member! 😊
Learn More About Xantia
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I’m new to Meowtel, however I have several years of informal experience caring for the pets of friends, family, and households I’ve worked with. Through these experiences, I’ve become comfortable with feeding routines, litter care, playtime, and adapting to each cat’s unique personality and comfort level.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I am the proud owner of a fluffy dilute calico who goes by the name of Luna 🥰 I also grew up with a tuxedo cat named Oreo. Being a longtime cat owner (and enthusiast) has given me firsthand experience understanding feline behavior, routines, and the importance of consistency and patience.
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes, I’m typically available during holidays! I’m a native New Yorker and tend to stay local most holidays, which I know can be some of the busiest travel times for pet parents. Because of my flexible schedule while finishing school, I’m often able to provide consistent care during holiday periods.

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!
