Katie was great with our kitties, one of whom is normally quite shy (but not with Katie, lol). She was very prompt with responses, she sent terrific photos and detailed information about her visits, and we were very happy with her catsitting in general. We would not hesitate to use her again. Thanks, Katie!

Katie watched my cats two weekends in a row, and did an excellent job! She sent plenty of photos, great updates, and even tried to help bring in a package for me. The cats looked happy, cared for, and enjoyed lots of play time and snuggles with her. Will certainly be booking Katie again in the future. Thank you!

Katie watched our shy kitty over the weekend. She fed, watered, cleaned his box, and played with him each visit. She stayed for the agreed upon time, which is important as our kitty takes time to warm up to strangers. Katie provided detailed texts after each visit with plenty of photos. I will be working with Katie again when I am out of town.

Frequently Asked Questions
Reservations officially begin at 12:00 AM in the sitter's time zone on the start date. Cat Parents may cancel within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund, as long as the reservation has not yet started. After the first 24 hours, the following cancellation rules apply:
- More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.
- 24–48 hours before the reservation start date: 50% refund. The sitter will earn 50% of their planned earnings.
- Within 24 hours of the reservation start date (or after it has begun): No refund. The sitter will earn 100% of their planned earnings.

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!

Katie was a fantastic cat sitter! My wife and I had to take a last minute trip and reached out to her at the last minute, and she responded right away and came by an hour later to get acquainted with our cat Bianca. Over the next 3 days she sent us many pictures and videos and also a detailed summary of what she had done. She also spent a lot of time playing with Bianca and we really appreciated that because she really loves human interaction. Would recommend to anyone!

Katie understands cat language! This is her second time taking care of my boys and she instantly noticed subtle changes to their behaviors and was able to interpret them accurately so she can give them exactly what they need (this time it was more food and cuddles). Whomever my boys trust, I trust too and Katie is definitely one of them! :)
