I'm Canaan | Cat Sitting in Buffalo, NY
I’ve had cats as pets since I was 2 years old. My first cat's name was Victor. He was a quiet cat, loved laying in the sunlight and drinking the milk out of my cereal bowl. He developed diabetes after a steroid shot he needed after he snuck out and got into an altercation with another cat. For a couple of years we gave him insulin shots 2x a day until unfortunately, it became too much for him and we said goodbye after 13 awesome years. After a couple of months, we started looking at cats again. I found a kitten that was about 3 months old online, and my mom and I went to go meet him. While at the foster home, we met the kitten, but another one who was about 2 months old kept climbing up to us to give us hugs. We left with 2 kittens that day, instead of just the 1 we intended. We named them Spencer (named after Spencer Reid from Criminal Minds) and Albus (named after Albus Dumbledore from Harry Potter). In addition to administering insulin to Victor, I have experience with other medications as well. Spencer, as a kitten in the foster home, developed an eye infection from a herpes virus. It flared up occasionally and I’d have to give him eye drops and liquid amoxicillin. At 13 years, Spencer was diagnosed with Lymphoma and requi...

Adele Lisa
Canaan was a VERY GOOD petsitter. She did everything I asked her to do. She sent updates and photos. Place was keep in order and litterbox clean. I will use her again for my kitties. Thank you 🙂🙂🙂

She took care of them and things were good and I did not feel worried when I was away. If need medicine was administered if anything YouTube or Google and the information is there. They also very much need time,attention and playtime being they are left alone for long periods of time. Thank you 😊 I will use her again.

This is my third (maybe fourth?) time reserving Canaan and she just gets better each time she’s with Monky. Monky has never walked on anyone’s shoulders to give kisses on the cheek but this happened with Canaan! My priorities were the obvious, food, water, litter.. but really just socializing and playing with her because she gets antsy with her parents away. Canaan allowed us to enjoy our vacation as she was sending updates every time she visited. I reserved her twice a day for the majority of our trip and it seemed like Monky loved on her more and more every visit. She hadn’t been to our new home yet, but she had detailed notes from previous visits that she was prepared for everything. She is fabulous and I’m sticking with her as my sitter! Only the best for my baby! Meow!
Anuja
Fantastic and reliable for my babies while I was gone. Very detail oriented and loved that she also sent pictures of food, water and litter box in addition to the adorable pictures / videos of my cats.
Wendy
Canaan was very responsible and communicated with us as to how our older cat was doing and what she did each time she came over. She also sent many pictures. There was a snow storm brewing, also, in her area but she was diligent and made it over all the days that were scheduled! We would definitely feel comfortable having her watch our cat, in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions
Buffalo cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $27.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
