Learn More About Myryah

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

Outside of raising my own cats, I’ve spent over 8 years formally fostering and cat sitting. From kittens and nursing moms to shy seniors and post-surgery snugglers, I know how to keep cats comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My two childhood cats, Nipsy & Pudin', have crossed the Rainbow Bridge, but I like to believe they're somewhere making sure my foster kitties are placed in happy furever homes.

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

I treat both your cat and your home with the utmost respect and the same care I would my own. For cats, that means sticking to their routines, double-checking food, water, and litter, and making sure doors and windows are always secure. I pay close attention to their behavior so I can catch any signs of stress or issues early. For your home, I’m careful with keys and entry, keep everything tidy, and will follow any instructions provided. Communication is a big part of safety, so I send regular updates and photos so you always know how things are going. My goal is for you to feel at ease knowing both your kitty and your home are safe, secure, and well cared for.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I love bringing out a cat’s playful side with wand toys! Every cat has their own unique style—some are high-flying jumpers, while others prefer to stalk and pounce with precision. Playtime is one of my favorite ways to connect because you really get to see their personalities shine through.

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

That’s okay! I can be shy around new people, too. It’s important to let cats warm up on their own time and let them set the pace with the interactions. If they’re eating and using the litter box, it’s okay if they don’t want to spend a lot of time around me. I won’t be too crushed. I’ll continue to make sure their needs are met and be ready for a slow introduction if they come out to play or socialize.

Myryah was communicative and friendly from start to finish! We especially appreciated the daily pictures and report after each visit. She took such great care of our little one, and we can’t wait to have her back.

Myryah is a tremendously empathetic and compassionate caregiver with a true love for feline friends. Professionally, she is sharp, organized, and detail-oriented to the utmost degree. However, I find what truly shines through is her warmth and kindness. It becomes extremely clear very quickly that she is trustworthy and exceedingly capable. Perhaps more importantly, Myryah very obviously genuinely enjoys finding ways to ensure the cats in her care are safe and happy.

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.
