Cat Sitting in New York, NY

Learn More About Madeline
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes! I have four - Zoe, Pumpkin, Sirius Black, and Loki. Being a crazy cat lady just might be my destiny.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
It’s always best to start your search early. Look at lots of reviews and don’t hesitate to reach out to prospective sitters with questions or concerns! The way a sitter responds can tell you a lot about their communication skills and attentiveness.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I am always extra attentive to nervous cats because it isn’t always obvious when something is wrong. I will respect the boundaries of every nervous cat, but also make sure to never make a visit without seeing them and observing their behavior.

Madeline was fantastic and we would recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable cat sitter! She was patient and kind, getting our very very shy cat to play with her. We appreciated the text messages and pictures she sent each day. Please be sure to use her as she’s great!

Madeleine took care of our zoomies-infused-always-very-chatty cat during our last trip. She gave us such great updates per visit, and we came back to a very happy kitty. Hopefully, she’ll be available to catsit for our boy again!

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 $31.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
