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...

Canaan's Reviews
Suzanne
Canaan was responsive to my late booking from the word "go". My diabetic cat's insulin dose increased slightly since Canaan had last seen her so she called to make sure she had it right. It was garbage day and she was kind enough to bring the bins in from the curb. She reported back on each of my 3 cats. I'm very happy with Canaan's service. I've recommended her to a friend of a friend in need.

Oh heck, if I tell you how great Canaan is with cats I'll never get to book her again, she will be so in demand. But this cat lover gave my 3 cats 6 days of care that minimized the shock of our absence. Her updates were complete and she didn't drop the little details we discussed to make their time without us manageable. My shy cats were comfortable with her in no time and trust is a virtue she has in abundance.
David
Great! we will have Cannan sit our two boys again.
Lauren
Canaan was able to get even my shy kitten out and playing! She sent photos of the both of them and washed out the food dishes before feeding them their dinner ☺️ (which I didn't even think to ask for) She is such a kind, detail oriented and caring women. Would always trust her with my precious fur babies!
Suzanne
Canaan was a pleasure to have as a kitty sitter. She was very detail oriented in our meet and greet. She took great photos and sent videos, too. I knew my fur kids were in very good hands, which made my short get away very good. I have a cat who only recently became diabetic so it was good to know that Canaan was able to provide insulin injections.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
