Cat Sitting in New York, NY

Hello! I’ve been cat-sitting for a few recurring clients in the city for the last 15 years, and before moving to New York in 2010, living at home we always had at least three kitties with us to enjoy the company of. So I grew up relating to and taking care of cats. I do not have any pets as this time, because they are not allowed where I live, so helping other people take care of theirs seems like a great opportunity to engage with animals,... Hello! I’ve been cat-sitting for a few recurring clients in the city for the last 15 years, and before moving to New York in 2010, living at home we always had at least three kitties with us to enjoy the company of. So I grew up relating to and taking care of cats. I do not have any pets as this time, because they are not allowed where I live, so helping other people take care of theirs seems like a great opportunity to engage with animals, which I love! I do have experience applying topical ointments/flea preventatives, eye and ear drops, and oral medication/pills from my time living at home and taking care of our kitties throughout the years. And then have learned from experiences working the last five years how to administer
insulin shots and subcutaneous fluids.

I can provide services in Brooklyn and any neighborhood in Manhattan. I look forward to doing this kind of service work, and find it coincides well with other pet-care I offer as a dog-walker. I made the transition to work as a pet care provider full time in 2022 and haven’t looked back!!

Sarah is seriously the best!! she does a phenomenal job watching our two cats every time, and always goes the extra mile. She plays with them, does whatever tasks we ask of her, and still finds time to tidy the apartment. Did I mention she’s an amazing pet photographer? the pictures she sends us are always a special joy whenever we travel. Sarah always does a 10/10 job!

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 $30.00. 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 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. 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 free Meet & Greet!
