I'm Yaeji

Cat Sitting in Brooklyn, NY

Hi there! I’m Yaeji — a lifelong cat lover, and I’d be thrilled to care for your fur babies while you’re away! 🐾

I grew up with three cats and now have two of my own, Pierre and Arry (and a dog). They keep me on my toes and make every day better! I’ve also cared for cats around my neighborhood, so I’m no stranger to all the unique quirks and cuddles that come with cat sitting.

I have a calm, gentle personality that cats naturally warm up to, and I always treat every kitty like my own...
Hi there! I’m Yaeji — a lifelong cat lover, and I’d be thrilled to care for your fur babies while you’re away! 🐾

I grew up with three cats and now have two of my own, Pierre and Arry (and a dog). They keep me on my toes and make every day better! I’ve also cared for cats around my neighborhood, so I’m no stranger to all the unique quirks and cuddles that come with cat sitting.

I have a calm, gentle personality that cats naturally warm up to, and I always treat every kitty like my own. I’m a pharmacist by day 💊, and thanks to personal experience with my own cats, I’m comfortable giving medications like eye drops and topical/oral if needed.

📍 Location: I’m based in Bushwick, right near the Morgan L stop — so anywhere nearby or along the L line is perfect!

⏰ Availability: I work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible. Just message me and we’ll work something out!

And of course — I’ll send you plenty of cute cat pics while you’re away. I know how much it means to see your little ones happy and well cared for 🐱📸

Looking forward to meeting you and your cat(s)!

Yaeji was amazing. It was our first time leaving our kitty alone and she made us feel so much better. She sent so many videos, pictures and chatted with me while she was with our girl. MoMo absolutely loved her and we’d 110% book her again.

Once again, Yaeji was amazing and took great care of my 3 cats while I was away for a week. She was able to go twice a day and sent me videos and photos each time. My cats clearly adored her, they looked relaxed, happy and content in every update. Highly recommend her to anyone who wants peace of mind while they’re away!

Yaeji did a fantastic job taking care of our cat for the 5 days we were out of town. She was very communicative, followed all instructions perfectly, and sent tons of great photos/videos of our cat each day too. She even went above and beyond and watered our plants which was greatly appreciated

Yaeji was awesome. She gave me a ton of updates and took a ton of pictures. She also played with my cat for awhile, brushed him, and spent more time with him than originally paid for. Would definitely recommend.

Yaeji did an excellent job taking care of Pounce! She did a great job of communicating and sending lots of pictures while I was away.

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!
