I'm Patricia
Cat Sitting in Hollis, NY
I've been surrounded by cats my entire life. 9 years ago, my family and I adopted Igor. We named him after the legendary composer Igor Stravinsky, he's been our constant companion ever since.
During my university days, I had the privilege of fostering cats and caring for post-surgery felines. Stray cats always seem to find their way to my door, and I never hesitate to take them in and find them a loving home for adoption.
As an academic and historical restoration architect from Mexico, everything changed when I moved to L.A and that’s when I started cat-sitting. I recently moved to NYC and Im currently based in Queens.
With each and every cat I sit for, I am filled with joy and a deep sense of responsibility... Hi!
I've been surrounded by cats my entire life. 9 years ago, my family and I adopted Igor. We named him after the legendary composer Igor Stravinsky, he's been our constant companion ever since.
During my university days, I had the privilege of fostering cats and caring for post-surgery felines. Stray cats always seem to find their way to my door, and I never hesitate to take them in and find them a loving home for adoption.
As an academic and historical restoration architect from Mexico, everything changed when I moved to L.A and that’s when I started cat-sitting. I recently moved to NYC and Im currently based in Queens.
With each and every cat I sit for, I am filled with joy and a deep sense of responsibility. I like to communicate with my clients, updating them what I did during the visit, adorable photos and videos of their furry friends.
I am also fluent in Spanish, English, and French, which allows me to communicate with a diverse range of clients, this adds an extra level of comfort for both the pets and owners.
I am comfortable administering oral medication, diabetic medication, subcutaneous fluids, and as a personal trait I love to sing to the cats to help them feel at ease. I deeply respect each cat's unique personality and quirks, and I strive to adapt to their needs and boundaries.
I am available for Meet and Greets preferably during the weekend. I am also vaccinated against Covid-19 and take all necessary precautions to keep you and your furry friend safe.
If you're looking for a cat sitter who is passionate, reliable, and deeply committed to the well-being of your furry friend, look no further!
I would be honored to care of your kitty, and if you have any further questions, don't hesitate to reach out.
Learn More About Patricia
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I started in 2023 in Los Angeles, CA. And continued when I moved to New York. I currently live in Queens since 2024
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
How different every cat is. Getting to know their unique quirks and personalities. Also, bonding with the regular kitties has been so rewarding.
Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?
Yes! I took care of two Devon Rex while the client was abroad for holidays and she needed an emergency cat sitter. The whole process felt like an adventure. I appreciated the client’s smooth system and the kitties were playful and with great personalities.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes! His name is Igor. He’s my family’s cat. He’s currently in Mexico where I am from and he loves to eat.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
Go with your gut, whoever feels right during the meet and greet is probably the best fit to take care of your kitty and your home.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
Each process has been different. Some are emergency bookings that require a lot of flexibility, others are more structured: they reserve, we do a meet and greet and, I follow up with the visits.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
When entering a home, I take my shoes off (for hygiene) and I lock the door once I’m in. I never let cats go outdoors. Once I’m done, I make sure the stove is off, focets too and lock the door behind me… at times I have gone back to check if the door was really closed 😅
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes, I am available during most holidays. You can check my exact availability in the calendar or text me directly if you have any questions. At times I close dates but for old clients or emergencies I can make an exception depending on the context. Feel free to ask.
What is your favorite cat toy?
We buy our cats very expensive and complex toys but I noticed most cats like to play with yarn or a ribbon, or maybe a crinkly receipt. So I’m crafty and I end up making the toy in-situ and most cats enjoy it.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
For shy kitties I respect them. If they want to be left alone, I just allow whatever they need. I do the tasks at hand and if they come close, I feel joyful and grateful. For particularly anxious kitties I don’t pet them to not overstimulate them and ask the owner if they feed them treats to relax during my visit.

This is my third or fourth reservation with Patty! She's is truly an amazing person. I got stranded in DR during the blizzard and she made it to my cats to take care of them the extra day I was away. She is an angel! Highly recommend!

Patricia is wonderful with senior cats. She can administer medication easily and she also pays close attention to anything that seems abnormal. With elderly cats (mine are 16 and 17), things can change quickly and it gives me so much peace of mind to have Patricia there when I can't be. I highly recommend her to everyone but especially to people with senior kitties.

Patricia was a wonderful choice for my shy senior cat with diabetes. We have a strict feeding and medication schedule, but she came promptly on time in the early morning hours and evening time to make sure Muffin was taken care of. Muffin really started to warm up to her after the second visit, which speaks volumes to her ability to care for cats. I would recommend Patricia 100%.

Patricia went above and beyond in her care for our cat, Angel. We had a special case: our cat is old, diabetic, and has kidney disease. Patricia helped give us peace of mind with updates, photos, and extra care when needed for our pet. She administered IV fluids with ease and helped us navigate the experience. We appreciated her thoroughness and care, and would 100% recommend her services!

Patricia has become our official cat sitter. We’ve booked her several times now, and as always everything was great. Our cat, Simba, loves Patricia’s company. He feels very comfortable with her. She’s very reliable and sends updates with pictures and videos of every visit. I would definitely recommend Patricia.

Frequently Asked Questions

- More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.
- 24–48 hours before the reservation start date: 50% refund. The sitter will earn 50% of their planned earnings.

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.
Hollis 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!

Patricia is lovely. She's a very nice person in addition to being a great house/cat sitter. She gave us lots of updates and our kitties seemed happy when we got home. One of my cats is very skittish and she managed to charm him on day 1. She stayed at our apartment and was a perfect guest, everything was left clean and orderly.

Patricia was a wonderful cat sitter for our cat, Simba. She took great care of him. Simba became good friends with Patricia in a very short time. She updated us with text messages, pictures and videos after each visit. She fed him, changed his litter box when needed, ensured he had fresh water, and played with him. We would definitely recommend Patricia, and wouldn’t hesitate to call her again when needed.

Patricia catsat for me for 7 days while I was traveling out of the country. She followed instructions meticulously, sent me not only photos but also updates on my cat’s mood and behavior, spent an ample amount of time each day playing with him, and left the apartment spotless. I would not hesitate to book with her again.

Patricia was simple great! If you are worried about leaving your fur-friends while going away, she is the answer. Very trusted person, she took care of our kitties, while also looking after our apartment. She did both day visits and overnight stays and our 2 cats were not stressed and found a friend in Patricia!! They were taking care of, I was getting photos and updates daily (twice a day) and had such a relaxing vacation, with peace of mind, thanks to her! Both cats were fed, brushed, had plenty of play time, got their medications and daily needs and it was like we never left. We came home to 2 very happy kitties ♥️ Highly recommend Patricia and hope to work with her again!
Michelle

Patricia was so kind, gentle, and patient with our cat, Beans (who can be a little fussy!) She is very intuitive and knew exactly what he likes and doesn’t, respecting his boundaries. She sent videos and pictures with updates and I felt so comfortable knowing Beans was happy and in good hands!

This was our first time using this app and it won’t be the last because Patricia was fantastic. We needed a sitter last-minute and not only was she available, but she was enthusiastic about helping us and taking care of Peggy. Patricia was attentive, arrived when she said she would arrive each day and was thorough in her updates. Our cat seemed happy, well-fed and well cared for upon our return. We’ll definitely reach out to Patricia again when we need a sitter.

Patricia was in incredible lifesaver when due to an emergency, my regular sitter couldn’t make the holiday dates I was away. She went above and beyond, arranging a meet and greet with a friend who had keys to my house and paid attention to all the details - even ensuring our robovac was unstuck and noticing my little guys’ quirks as she spent time with them. I cannot recommend her enough - a fantastic sitter!

Patricia just looked after my cat Romy for the second time, and she's amazing. I came back to a spotless home and Romy was very happy and calm. Patricia's daily updates with cute photos and videos are the best. What I think sets her apart is her genuine effort to connect with Romy. It comes through in the updates and gives you a deep sense of security as a pet owner. I highly recommend Patricia; she's awesome and super easy to work with.

Patricia exceeded my expectations in every way. My cat is a recently adopted stray and still developing her social skills. Patricia was patient and made every effort to follow the instructions I gave. I came back to find things cleaner than i had left them and Romy was happy & calm. I felt like Patricia genuinely cared and hope to be in touch with her again for the future.

It was so amazing to come back home and seeing the cats are happy, the floor is spotless and plants fully watered! Patricia took care of the home carefully, following the instructions we left perfectly, and did all the request we made and the quality of work was amazing. During our time off, We got daily updates, videos, and the descriptions of how our cats are doing, and Patricia will ask us for instructions on things she’s not sure about, which we appreciate a lot ( for us, getting things done in the “right way” is very important because we have many cats at home). We would be thrilled to book her again next time we are on vacation!

From beginning to end the entire process was seamless. Patricia was an amazing cat-sitter. As pet parents, we're always extremely stress about leaving our kitties alone during our travels. Patricia offered us so much care and support that we knew our kitties were in perfect hands. Even our shy kitty approved. Patricia's attention to detail was 10stars and counting!!!!!
