I have my own cats Oolong and Icky since 2023 and in 2022 I previously worked at a family vet’s office as a secretary training to be a vet tech. I ultimately decided on a different career path but have carried the skills and knowledge from that time period with me since then! I’m happy to give medicine, play, feed, scoop litter and even clean your apt a little if you’d like. I loooove cats and would love to be a companion to yours! Let me know if I can provide any additional information.

Best,
Ashlynn

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

I own my own cats and regularly catsit for my friends while they’re on vacation. I’ve had my own cats for 3+ years and have catsit for others in this past year.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Oolong is my first born kitty, a grey & white tux that was found on the street with broken teeth and an infection on her nose :( she ended up having to go through a spay, dental surgery and antibacterial medicine all at once and I nursed her though it all. My other kitty, Icarus (or icky for short!) was a little baby also found on the street. He’s a super fluffy orange tabby and sooo incredibly sweet but a huge menace!

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Typical cat parent things - making sure there are no strings, food or toxic plants left out that the cat can injest and get sick from. I also ensure any access to the outside is kept closed and locked (windows, balcony doors, etc.) When I come into the apt I also open the door slowly and block the entryway with my leg in case we have a runner!!

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, aside from Christmas and a few days around then. My family lives out of state so I typically have no plans around the holidays

1000/10 recommend Ms Ashley! I cannot begin to explain how much Ashley helped me with my Berry during my leave. Berry had abit of an emergency and Ashley immediately took her to the emergency clinic. Her communication was perfect with both me and the emergency contacts I had provided me on Meowtel. She was with me on call whenever needed. Even though the situation took away from her weekend time , she was always there and kept Berry as her first priority. Berry is well and happy today and I must say Ashley was the only one who would have gone above and beyond. Additionally, the house was clean and instructions were thoroughly followed. After berry was discharged from the hospital , Ashley also took perfect care and prioritzed coming in earlier. Thank you so much :)

Ashley is everything you can ask for in a cat sitter! We were out for a week and needed catsitting for my Bengal and Ragdoll on relatively short notice. She was able to accommodate and was very communicative as well, sharing photos and videos as I requested. My cats need wet food with supplements in the morning and dinner, with dedicated play time, and upon returning my cats were happy and healthy, and my place was spotless. She certainly follows the saying “leave the place better than you found it”. I recommend Ashley for your catsitting needs, she is exceptional!

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 $32.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
