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

Hello everyone! I am Yuriy and I am a vet assistant and an experienced cat sitter - I have 5+ years of experience in monitoring sick cats and conducting regular medical procedures (such as injections, cleaning, pills, etc.). Veterinary assistance and volunteering. As a vet assistant in Brooklyn Heights Veterinary Hospital I have decent experience with cats and providing different medical operations. Before that I was a volunteer at the Rescue House Adoption Center, San Diego - during my participation in the center, many single and bonded cats passed through me. Many of them were ferals and behaved quite aggressively, but scratched hands will not discourage me from making friends with a pet. Personal experience. As for my personal experience - unfortunately, a few years ago, two of my dear cats Max (16 yo) and Solomon (4yo) got really sick, which ...

Yuriy is my go-to sitter. He took care of my cats for 2 weeks during my vacation. He is very attentive and provides detailed summaries on every visit. He goes extra length to make sure the temperature is set properly and the litterbox area is clean. Would definitely recommend him to anyone!

Yuriy is a polite and respectful cat sitter who took great care of my shy kitty when I had to travel for 2 weeks. He was able to quickly put my cat at ease and took meticulous care to ensure that she was safe, well-fed and happy. I could tell that they got along very well and my cat totally looked forward to his daily visits. Yuriy dutifully gave me detailed updates everyday, complete with pictures and videos, and was always accommodating with special requests. Truly, he is a cat-whisperer and you won’t go wrong engaging him. Thanks Yuriy for taking such good care of Yuzu!

Yuriy is always so attentive to our little buddy's needs, and very meticulous with the details of both his standard daily care and his oral medication. We also really appreciate his detailed updates and visit recaps. We feel so much better traveling when we know Yuriy is on the case!

Yuriy did a terrific job caring for our senior diabetic cat, Shadow! I reached out to him needing 3 days worth of visits and he was immediately responsive. We set up a meet and greet for the day before our departure so that him and Shadow could become acquainted and so that I could give Yuriy a run down of everything/give apartment keys. Shadow requires insulin every 12 hours via needle during feeding and Yuriy did a wonderful job. We looked forward to his lengthy, detailed texts including photos and videos describing everything he did with Shadow: fed, injected, brushed, scooped litter box, cleaned up, and played. Shadow absolutely has a new friend and I will call upon Yuriy again - He is very professional, trust worthy & a true cat lover!!!

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 $38.00. 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.
