Learn More About Kelsey

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

I’ve been pet sitting for a few months now but I grew up with many cats and love caring for them. I’ve had to care for a lot of them (when they had kidney failure and had to provide IV fluids, when they are anxious and had to provide anxiety medicine, when there’s an age gap between kitties, and when I had to put ointment on them)

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love cuddling with cats when I sit for them and hearing them purr. I enjoy watching tv with them or reading while they are sleeping by my side. I’m just a cat person, I love meeting new cats of all breeds!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I grew up with many cats but right now I have a black cat named Spooky! He is crazy when it comes to food but wants cuddles and love (on his own terms lol). He loves sleeping with me or my sister at night and is a loaf most of the day.

Kelsey’s an amazing cat sitter. She’s attentive, communicative, responsible, and friendly. Her calm and bright personality puts me at ease when I leave my cat, Midnight, for periods of time. She’s always sending me pictures and updates to make sure I’m in the loop. She spends lots of quality time with him - plays with his favorite cat toys with him and cuddles with him. She’s a clean house guest and always let me know if something looks awry. Highly recommend Kelsey.

Frequently Asked Questions

New York cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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.
