I'm Ariel | Cat Sitting in New York, NY
Hello pawrents and kitties! My name is Ariel, and I have been called the Cat Whisperer. I take pride in making sure your furry friends are well taken care of and treated like family, because they are. I love the personalities of cats. Every one is different, and their funny quirks bring me joy. I also enjoy finding out their different love languages: whether that is staring at you in the corner in a loaf, or snuggling up to you so you can rub their belly and purring. I have a very good reputation with shy cats, and I feel honored that they regard me as acceptable in their books. I have previous experience in giving liquid medication and pills to kitties and am a clean litterbox advocate. I have previously given liquid medication in food and water, and I am an expert at hiding pills in food. My efforts have helped kitties dea...

Ariel's Reviews
Ellen
Ariel did an amazing job 😄 Pictures and updates were timely and detailed, and she became fast friends with my kitty.
Carol
This was the second time Ariel was our cat sitter - she is simply amazing with cats!! My crew of 3 cats all love her, as shown by the many great pictures Ariel sent. Lots of snuggles! I can't rate Ariel high enough! Definitely more than 5 stars
Jessica
Ariel was the perfect sitter for my kitty Buster! She was so in tune with his body language, and gave him the best love and attention when we were out of town for a long weekend. I loved seeing her pictures and videos every day, and she captured the most adorable moments showcasing his personality. Thank you Ariel!!
Carol
Ariel was amazing - a great hit with all 3 of my cats, and especially great with my very shy cat Chloe. She sent great pictures and communication every day. And best of all, my cats were much calmer upon our return than they usually are - a sure sign that Ariel was awesome!
Emily
Ariel did a great job taking care of Oliver and giving me detailed updates after the visit. Oliver has a lot of kitten energy and sometimes gets very overstimulated but Ariel was able to find the perfect balance when watching him and kept him mentally stimulated. I would definitely have her pet sit again!

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 $35.00. 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.
