Sandy visited very consistently each morning, which I know my schedule-oriented kitty appreciated! She also sent me pictures each day, and gave me updates on how my cat was doing which was very reassuring.

Repeat customer! Sandra took care of our cat JJ a second time this past weekend and we couldn’t be happier. Sandra sent several photos of them playing together and it put our minds completely at ease while being out of town for the weekend. We look forward to hiring Sandra again!

Sandra is THE BEST! Due to the current situation (COVID)the cat nanny we normally use is not operational, so we were ecstatic to find Meowtel, and Sandra. When we met, Sandra was so sweet and we felt so comfortable with her. She really made us feel that our cat would be very well cared for. Sandra followed all of my instructions perfectly & sent pictures during every visit. Sandra is so reliable, we actually changed our booking to two feedings a day with her. I highly recommend Sandra if you are looking for a respectful & responsible cat person to look after your cat. We will 100% be asking Sandra back!!! I am so grateful we found her!!!

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 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!

Sandra was wonderful! She sent several videos and photos of my cat JJ while visiting. I will definitely choose Sandra to cat sit again. Felt confident and comfortable having her take care of my cat in my home. Highly recommend!
