I'm Kristina | Cat Sitting in New York, NY
Hi, I’m Kristina! I have been the proud cat mom to several cats throughout my life including my 2 current furballs - Kitty and Binx. As a result, I’m well versed in cat body language and am able to truly appreciate every cat for their unique personality - rather that’s curious and outgoing or shy and slow to warm up. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM ME When it comes to animals - my patience is endless and I have no issue meeting a cat where they’re at to ensure minimal stress while you’re away. If they want to play - amazing! - if they’d rather I give them space - I’m happy to do that too! I follow directions to a “t” and will take the lead on feeding/litter box/treat regimens from you. My day job is in communications - specifically in the digital space - so you can expect detailed updates ...
Kristina's Reviews
Jena
As per usual Kristina provided excellent care to my boys. She is very reliable, I never question if she will forget or be late. She sends so much detail in her updates and always includes pics and videos! in addition to the wonderful cat care she leaves our home cleaner than when we left and brings in all of our packages! Kristina is a gem!
Delaney
Kristina was awesome! My cat has 2 meds and she was able to administer them without any trouble which is a feat. She left the apartment tidy, cleaned up any accidents made by my cat (he has kidney disease) and gave him fresh water each visit. Additionally I had some packages that were very important that Kristina was able to safeguard while I was away. It gave me peace of mind!
Lauren
Kristina did an excellent job taking care of my cat while I was away! She was communicative, trustworthy, and clearly loves taking care of cats! I will book her again!
Victoria
Kristina is my go-to sitter whenever I need to travel! I’ve booked her several times now and Ryu and Yoshi just love her! I never have to worry when I’m away because she sends the best detailed updates and adorable photos 💕 my boys can be quite mischievous, and Kristina always finds a way to solve whatever problem they create keeping my mind at ease lol
Sarah
Kristina was an amazing cat sitter for my two babies, one in particular who is quite shy, but her timely updates, extensive notes and incredibly sweet and numerous photos put me at ease while out of town. 10/10 cannot recommend enough and excited to book with her again!

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 $35.00. 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.
