I’ve been around cats my whole life. Cats are the best! I volunteered at cattery and having my own 10 years kitty MiuMiu who I adopted from shelter since she’s a 10 wks little baby. I’m good with kitten, young cats, adult and senior cats. I moved to Island Park/Long Beach neighborhood in the summer and fell in love with this beautiful community. I would love to help out our fellow cat owners with their precious fur babies when they have to be away from home. I’m reliable, responsive, friendly and patient, a true cat lover who do sitings with love! Plus I’m an artist, I do animal portraits. I would be very happy to take good pics of your kitties on each visit and send them to you to brighten up your day! :)

Learn More About Yolanda

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have been doing cat sitting for a couple years. I forested multiple cats and enjoy go for drop in visits as well.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

To give the kitties love and company while their owners are not home. I enjoy taking care of them, petting them, playing with them and making them feel loved & less lonely.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a long hair domestic cat MiuMiu I raise her from 10 weeks little tiny baby kitten to this big girl now 10 years old! She’s my best friend, my angel and my family. I can’t imagine my life without her. And yes she’s in my profile pic ;)

Yolanda is a wonderfully caring cat parent and sitter. She really loves interacting with all cats and treats them with the same care as if they were her own. If she lived closer to me now I'd hire her everytime I have to leave the house.

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.

Island Park cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!
