Cat Sitting in New York, NY

Hi there, my name is Anne! I live and WFH in East Harlem. I am a freelancer so I have lots of flexibility to take care of your four-legged companion! I also recently graduated from NYU with my MA in Food Studies. I love cooking, trying new restaurants, yoga, pilates, and cuddling with my recent foster fail, Skelly. He is pictured on the banner of my profile and is the sweetest kitty! He has two thumbs, a loud meow with lots to say, and the biggest personality with an appetite to match. He is also FIV-positive so I have experience administering a variety of pills, ointments, and eyedrops.

A little about my history with cats... I grew up with Lilly, an orange tabby, who passed away when I went to college...

A little about my history with cats... I grew up with Lilly, an orange tabby, who passed away when I went to college. During Christmas break, I convinced my parents to go to the local shelter "just to look" and we came home with two adorable kittens-Duke and Daisy. They are turning 10 this year and could not be cuter. I also have experience fostering cats and kittens, fostering up to 5 kittens at a time. As stated, I have experience giving various treatments, and I am open to learning how to administer other medicines as needed. I have also been cat-sitting with Meowtel for almost 2 years now and it has been so rewarding!

I love the trust and relationships I've built with my clients and their cats. I love that they have their own personality, favorites, and quirks. They bring me so much joy and peace! I'd love the opportunity to take excellent care of yours :)

Note: I am COVID-19 vaccinated and boosted. I am willing to travel in Manhattan as long as it is within a few miles of home.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love cat sitting because it gives me the chance to form special bonds with each cat and their owners. There’s nothing more rewarding than being trusted to care for someone’s beloved companion. I love spending time with cats and caring for them. It is a joy for me truly!

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

I never open any windows or closed doors to ensure they are staying safe and are in the allowed areas. I shut the apartment door behind me each time and lock it while inside and upon departure. I always leave with the keys in my hand and test the door once locked. I also read and reread any written instructions by the client or by me after the meet & greet. I check my notes during the visit as well to make sure each cat is getting the specified care they need and that the home is being properly cared for as well.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I always respect their space. I allow them to connect if they look at ease by first letting them smell my hand. I'm hoping for a head butt but if not, I'll let them be and try to engage with them in another way. If they are hiding or not wanting to be bothered, I will sit and chat with them. I will also try to engage them with their favorite toys or treats. I always try to let them know that it's okay and that you'll be back soon!

Anne provided prompt and thorough updates. She sent pictures of both my kitties and even managed to get my very shy girl to come out and interact with her. When we contracted her, she came the very next day for the meet up even though it was short notice. (I really appreciated that.) Kitties were fed, and played with, litter scooped and overall everything went smoothly.

This was our second time booking Anne to help cat sit. She did such a great job the first time that we knew we had to go with her again! Our cats, including our nervous kitty, was very comfortable with Anne which was reassuring. We appreciated how responsive she was. We had a last minute flight cancellation, and Anne was very flexible with the changes and kindly refunded the days we no longer needed her services for. She sent us updates every day, which included several adorable photos of our cats and made us feel they were being loved for and cared for. We would 100% rebook Anne again if we need cat sitting services again!!

Anne took such good care of my two cats! One of them has several medications that he takes twice daily, which she managed with ease - and that made me feel so comfortable about leaving him. (And I got a lot of cute pics and the best updates!!) I would highly recommend her! THANK YOU, Anne!!!

Anne is the purrfect kitty sitter! We were away for 5 days. Anne sent detailed daily updates and the most beautiful photos of our kitties. She followed our feeding and care instructions verbatim. She gave extra attention and effort to our cats and fish. The cats were totally at ease upon our return. Couldn't be happier with her cat sitting services. We can't thank Anne enough!

I hired Anne for my first time using Meowtel (and any catsitting service) so naturally I was a bit anxious about it going well. Anne did a fantastic job with our two kitties. She sent daily updates along with several adorable photos of our cats. Our shy kitty warmed up to her quickly as well. She went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter, especially first time Meowtel users. Looking forward to hiring her again in the future!

Anne took great care of my cat during a week of drop-in visits. She was quick to respond to messages, professional to communicate with, and gave comprehensive updates. My cat seemed very happy with the attention, playtime, brushing, and treats! Everything was neat and tidy when I returned home and the whole process including booking and key handover was seamless. This was my first time booking a cat sitter through Meowtel so I was a bit anxious but it was a positive experience for both me and my cat!

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 $31.00. 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!
