Cat Sitting in Long Island City, NY

SERVICE AREA:
LIC Queens or Midtown Manhattan.

--------------------------------------------

I LOVE CATS, BECAUSE:
They are so independent and needy at the same time! They have such soft bodies that I can comfortably cuddle with them. They always cures me when I am down with their silent companionships.

MY CAT'S EXPERIENCE:
I grew up with 3 cats and currently I have a 7-year chubby orange tabby living with me. I know how to take care of kittens or adult cats by feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and playing with them. I offered cat's feeding service in my neighborhood and already served 10+ cats. Every cat has his/her own personality, and I believe as long as I have enough patience I can get along well with them. I'm extremely responsible and responsive.

--------------------------------------------

MY APPROACH TO MEET NEW CATS:
I will let them smell me first and take it slowly when I meet new cats...

--------------------------------------------

MY APPROACH TO MEET NEW CATS:
I will let them smell me first and take it slowly when I meet new cats. At the same time, I will start preparing food and cleaning the litter box first based on your requirements. Once that done, the cats already take some time to get used to me, and I will start to play with them with their favorite toys!

MY STRENGTHS:
Organized, detailed-oriented, responsible and responsive! I’m willing to learn if there is any special requirement.

--------------------------------------------

MY PRIMARY FULL-TIME JOB:
My primary job is a product manager in a SAAS company. I was given the 2022 excellence award nominated by peers in our company because they think my project made the most impact. One of the keys to success is the project being organized. Therefore, I believe I have the ability to take care of your cats well because I am an organized, detailed-oriented and responsible person.

MY HOBBY BEYOND TAKING CARE OF CATS:
Doing yoga, playing the piano, watching TV shows and reading.

--------------------------------------------

COVID PRECAUTIONS & SANITATION MEASURES:
I am fully vaccinated and I am willing to wear mask if required. I will wash my hands when I get to your place first before starting any service.

Hsuan! was really great! She kept us updated when she was heading over to our place, when she arrived, when she was finished with services and leaving, and she also sent us many pictures throughout her time there. Will definitely have her back again!

Hsuan continues to be a fantastic sitter for our senior cat! Not only did she send great photos but she also made sure to spend quality time playing with him. She kept his litter box tidy and even went above and beyond by tidying up any extra kitty messes. Very grateful to have found such a reliable sitter!

There is a reason that we always try to book with Hsuan. She is very knowledgeable, follows detailed instructions carefully, and sends amazing updates. Our shy cat started to take to her very quickly. When our cat closed himself in the bathroom somehow, she came over quickly on short notice and rescued him. The only reason I would say not to book with her is if I am going out of town on the same dates, I don’t want her to get booked up because she’s so great.

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.

Long Island City 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!
