Learn More About Mercy

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love making new fluffy friends and giving out loves. Taking care of different creatures is my strength and passion.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I’ve had two experiences taking care of friends’ cat, and both times spans multiple years. The first baby is Natty and the second baby is Lambo.

Are you usually available during holidays?

My schedule is super flexible and I don’t travel too often. I love spending times in my city during my free times just to explore new neighborhoods and make new connections.

Mercy was an awesome cat sitter. not only did she follow all of my care instructions perfectly, but she offered to help with other things like watering my plants and vacuuming up the dust bunnies and excess fur from the cat. we came back home to the cleanest apartment we’ve ever had going on a trip while having a cat. loved her so much I hope she will be avalaible for our next trip.

Mercy was a great cat sitter for my girls. I have shy cats older cats and she really approached them at their level and made them feel comfortable when interacting with them. She even got them to come out of their shell and play! She pays attention to detail and is great with communication. I would definitely hire Mercy again.

Mercy is an ideal cat sitter because she has a profound love for animals. She understands what pet owners expect when hiring someone to come and care for their pets when they are away. Mercy has the perfect disposition for taking care of cats specifically because she enters the space with a very calm and understanding energy. She approaches cats at their comfort level to ensure that they feel safe in her space. She also possesses amazing customer service skills. She takes care to ask the client plenty of questions in order to get to know them and their pet. She has an incredible bedside manner and attention to small details. She also has experience administering medication!

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 $31.00. 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.
