I'm Patrick

Cat Sitting in New York, NY

Hello cat parents!

I’m Patrick and I’m a lover of all animals, but especially cats. I take my job as a cat dad to two cats very seriously and I promise to treat your cats the exact same way.

When I’m responsible for your cat’s well-being, I will treat them with the love and understanding that I provide my own cats.

Cleaning litter boxes, washing and replacing food and water bowls, playtime and treats; all of these are the bare minimum of what I’ll do for your cats.

Hello cat parents!

I’m Patrick and I’m a lover of all animals, but especially cats. I take my job as a cat dad to two cats very seriously and I promise to treat your cats the exact same way.

When I’m responsible for your cat’s well-being, I will treat them with the love and understanding that I provide my own cats.

Cleaning litter boxes, washing and replacing food and water bowls, playtime and treats; all of these are the bare minimum of what I’ll do for your cats.

One of the reasons I love cats so much is because they all have very distinct personalities and they communicate what they want from us. I’m happy to hold and cuddle a cat that wants that. I’m also happy to give a cat its space and let them come to me when/if they’re ready.

You can expect lots of pictures and videos and frequents updates. My goal is to let you focus on your trip without having to worry about your fur babies at home.

I look forward to meeting you and you cats!

Learn More About Patrick

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

My professional experience is limited, but in my personal life I have interacted with and taken care of cats for years. I’ve watched family and friend’s cats over the years. I spoil my own cats. Among my friends and loved ones I am known as the “cat whisperer” because I’ve made friends with even the most stand-offish cats.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love meeting all kinds of new cats and their parents. Every cat is different and had their own wants/needs. I love figuring out what those wants and needs are and winning over every cat I meet.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two cats. I met my orange tabby Maestro 8 years ago when I first met my wife. He’s my soul-cat and we are very bonded to each other. Lupini is our grey tabby. We recused him in 2019 and he’s very attached to my wife. He’s a talkative cat, especially when he thinks it’s time for breakfast.

Patrick was great! The cats loved him from the first meeting. I felt very relaxed while away knowing that my two cats were well taken care of. Patrick sent frequent updates and pictures. Would highly recommend Patrick and will be using his services again the next time I travel.

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 $29.00. 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!
