Each one brought variety, energy, wisdom, and fun to my life.
I appreciate every quirky personality, from the lapsitters to the proudly independent types who deserve the same attention as the bolder personalities — just on their terms. I always learn their secrets! I’ll shower your loved one(s) with the same attention, love, care, and respect I have spent most of my life providing to our loving and deserving companions.
My coverage range is West Side, roughly 50th to 116th Sts. Available for once a day or once every other day drop-in visits, any time of day you prefer.
Also happy to water plants and take in mail. Leave me the vacuum, and no litter spill gets left behind.
100% reliable. I hope I can help.

Lynn is spectacular! I feel so lucky to have found her. ( I’ve already rebooked her!) She made my cat so happy! She totally understood his personality, and she played with him and cuddled him and he had a wonderful time with her. And I was so happy to know he was with someone so kind and attentive. Lynn’s updates and photos were great, btw! Just wonderful in every way.

I needed someone to do short visits for three days, and I couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter than Lynn. Lynn took great care of my cat Guero, from feeding him and cleaning the litter, to giving cuddles so Guero still got some TLC even though I was out for long days. Lynn is responsive and great at communication. She provided updates and videos on each visit -- pictures don't lie, Guero was so happy to see Lynn! I'm glad I found someone who I can be 100% certain would take good care of my cat. I highly recommend Lynn!

Lynn was amazing! Cannot recommend her enough. She took such thorough and attentive care of my cat while I was away for the holidays. She was particularly helpful when my flights got canceled last minute, and I had to pivot my schedule last minute. Great communication and service. Thank you!

Lynn is exceptional—no other way to describe her! Her availability (even at short notice) and flexibility are incredible. Her trustworthiness and honesty are absolute. She went above and beyond to make my 9 y.o, adopted Russian Blue comfortable, and I found him in great shape when I came back. And she is so nice. I'll make sure to ask her again if I need help!

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!
