Meow there! My name is Alex and I have been a cat sitter for over 5 years now. I am passionate about cats and love spending time with them.

I offer feeding, playing, administering medication, litter box cleaning, and plant watering services.

I am available from Monday to Sunday between 8am to 6pm in Manhattan.

I have experience with cats of all ages and personalities, including those with special needs such as diabetes and hyperthyroidism. I have experience with feral and shy cats.

I live in Manhattan so I am nearby.

In my free time, I enjoy reading books about cats and volunteering. I am raising two feral cats and have had cats and dogs my whole life.

Hablo castellano.

Thank you for reading this.

Alejandro was beyond wonderful. He took incredible care of our two kitties including some very involved bathing for a special needs senior. He played lovingly with them and cared for them as of they were his own family. Our younger cat even started showing his true "family side" to Alejandro, he built real trust with the boys. We came home to clean happy kitties and are incredibly thankful we found such a responsible and loving person to care for the "family" we weren't able to bring with us.

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.

New York 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!
