Laura

Julie is a kind and wonderful cat sitter! My cat is naturally suspicious of anyone besides me coming in the house and she was able to gain his confidence while not forcing it and he came to her on his own. I was very nervous having a cat sitter I didn\'t know come over, but Julie quickly gave me peace of mind that my sweet boy is in good hands.

Kayla

I knew I trusted Julie the minute Leopold came out from hiding to greet her! Julie kept me updated every single day with so much videos and photos of my dear Leo. She knew I missed him so much and even stayed longer at her visits to ease my mind. Julie followed all my directions to the tea and made sure Leo was satisfied before leaving. Huge thank you to Julie!

Celina

Julie did a great job cat sitting my 2 year old Oreo and 4 month old Miso! She sent plenty of videos and photos each visit. She communicated and took instructions well if I forgot to mention something or if she had to let me know if she was going to be late. I appreciated her honesty and transparency. The best part was Julie getting Oreo to warm up to her. Before Julie, Oreo didn’t like any human outside our household. But she was patient and got Oreo to come out of his shell! I recommend Julie as a sitter 👍

Aimee

This was my first time leaving my 1 year old kitty for 6 days and Julie made me feel beyond comfortable. She was quick with the updates and tons of pictures (which helped the separation anxiety a lot). She paid attention to all of Maia’s routines and gave her as much love as I could have asked for. I will definitely be asking Julie to watch her again, and with the confidence that my baby is in the best hands possible.

From beginning to end, Julie was attentive and a good listener. She was patient as well, as I figured out which days I needed her due to changing my vacation days. She communicated throughout. I would book her again. Now I can leave on vacation without a worry.

Julie is truly one of a kind! My fiancé and I had such peace of mind having her watch our Gizmo. She goes above and beyond and is a pro at making shy cats come out of their shell. Will book her again!

Frequently Asked Questions

Fresh Meadows cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. 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.
