I'm Katherine

Cat Sitting in Flushing, NY

I am a cat mom to a 12 year old indoor cat named Sesame, whom I raised since she was 3 months old. Went through flea and other intestinal problems when I adopted her, but now she's a healthy spoiled princess.

In my preparation to adopt Sesame, I was a bit methodical in researching cat care and it helped me through those stressful first time flea applications and understanding cat's behaviors when there's a potential issue in their health...
I am a cat mom to a 12 year old indoor cat named Sesame, whom I raised since she was 3 months old. Went through flea and other intestinal problems when I adopted her, but now she's a healthy spoiled princess.

In my preparation to adopt Sesame, I was a bit methodical in researching cat care and it helped me through those stressful first time flea applications and understanding cat's behaviors when there's a potential issue in their health. I have also taken care of my mom's cat that went through cystotomy and PU surgery with post recovery efforts. (My mom's cat has recovered and went back being his vocal self)

Since raising Sesame, I fell in love with cats of all kinds. Knowing that they have their own personalities make it more fascinating to get to know each one. I see my cat as a family member and know how precious a cat is to someone's family. It can be nerve wrecking to leave your cat at home when you are away (I know the feeling!), and I hope to relieve your and your precious kitties' anxieties with care.

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.

Flushing cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $31.00. 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!
