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

I have been formally cat sitting for about 20 years (since I was about 10). I would have neighbors who would frequently travel and have to leave their 3 cats behind. I sat for them twice a month for 8 years and developed a very close bond with each of their kitties. After moving to the city 7 years ago, I would frequently cat sit for friends that could go out of town, picking up some formal clients along the way.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

I would say to prioritize hiring a cat sitter who is overly communicative. Almost anyone can follow directions but asking for clarification during a meet and greet and making sure to send pictures and updates during the drop in is beyond important for your nerves when you are away. It’s priceless to be able to trust a sitter knows excatly what to do and that you know exactly how your kitties are doing while you are away.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes! I am available all holidays (unless otherwise indicated. Most my family travels to NYC for major holidays so I do not leave the city very much!

Alexis is a kind and trustworthy person with whom I have trusted my own cats with for years. My cat loves her as do her own, Wednesday and Paloma. She is extremely detail oriented and communicative and makes sure to follow instructions and directions to a 'T' with very clear and timely updates and photos. I genuinely dont trust any other person with my cat more than her. She has a life long client in me!

Frequently Asked Questions

New York cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
