I'm Farah | Cat Sitting in New York, NY

I am a huge cat lover!! Eight years ago, I convinced my mom to adopt our family cat who we named Genghis Khan. Since then, I have adopted my own Siamese named Sasha. She is 5 years old and she is my whole world. I have always been an animal lover but cats hold a special place in my heart. Cats can sense my comfortability with them which allows them to gravitate towards me. I am a loving, caring, organized, and responsible person with a very flexible schedule. I am fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and have received the boost...

Learn More About Farah

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have a Siamese kitty named Sasha. She is my best girlfriend πŸ₯°

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

I give them space to warm up to my presence and scent. I remain calm and gentle and don't make sudden movements or create loud sounds. When they begin to approach me I do the famous "Michaelango" hand move so they can sniff me and often times, cats will nudge their head into my palm. I often get called the cat whisperer lol

Farah did an amazing job taking care of our cat! She was responsive, shared lots of cute pictures and videos throughout her visits, and made us feel at ease knowing our cat was in good hands while we were on vacation. Highly recommend!

I am soo appreciative for Farah! Super reponsive and communicative. I had the annoying task of 5 kitty litters that needed scooping! She took care of that, even swept up the floor for me! Refilled the water bowls and gave them each a can of wet food. I hate leaving my babies behind for long periods of time, but Farah brought them happiness and joy that they needed soo badly! Thank you SOO much!!!πŸ«ΆπŸ»πŸ’ž

Farah is reliable, communicative, and so helpful! She is trustworthy and went the extra mile with her care when my cat knocked things over and left a mess in my home. Her loving nature is so comforting!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

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 $36.00. 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.
