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

As a cat owner, it's natural to worry about leaving your fur friends behind when you have to travel or simply need a break. Finding the right cat sitter can be difficult, but I can assure you that I am the ideal match for you and your furry family members. I recently went through a difficult experience with my own cats, Scooty and Two-Face, who fell ill and passed away. This tragic event gave me a new perspective on caring for cats that require special attention or medicine. I understand the importance of being able to fully engage in caring for your beloved fur baby, and I am here to provide that same level of care and attention for your cats as well. I am a virtual assistant, which means I have the flexibility to provide cat sitting services whenever you need them. I also live in Harlem and prefer to work in the westside area from 116th street to 150th street for kitty visits. Additionally, I have experience as a key hold...

Christine

Lisa was fantastic, I booked her last minute and she responded quickly and was able to schedule the meet and greet around my limited schedule, as well as communicated well about what times she could come to see my cat based on her schedule. I was concerned about my cat because she's been skittish around strangers but Lisa walked me through her process of getting shy cats used to her presence and it seems like it worked because she actually managed to see my cat emerge from her hiding place! I got lots of great photos and updates and Lisa did everything I could've asked for (including a somewhat convoluted key hand off)

Alessandra

Lisa is a wonderful cat sitter: knowledgeable, kind, and highly professional. She took great care of our cat Merlino and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Highly recommended!

Colleen

Lisa is a cat whisperer! We're so pleased with how intentional and thoughtful she was with cats including winning over our anxious and "stranger danger" male cat. We've had a few different cat sitters as we've moved around the city and she is the best of the best. She keeps you well updated and is very mindful about how she approaches every detail. She goes above and beyond. When our return flight was delayed she was flexible and even came an extra day. Thank you again, Lisa!

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.

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 $33.00. 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.
