Learn More About Sarah

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two cats, a chunky diva named Queenie and a sensitive tri-pod named Penfold (long story). They both have flutd, and Penfold has a few medication requirements to help with his anxiety. I am unapologetically obsessed with them!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Always make sure you’re comfortable with the person caring for your kitties. Pets are family, and they deserve the best care. Especially if they have special requirements, I highly recommend going with someone who has experience, that’ll offer you some peace of mind.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I personally have taken in two cats who had not been previously socialized and I learned that patience is the key! While it may be disappointing not being able to give your cat snuggles right away, they will tell you when they’re ready. You can push the boundary slightly, but really the ball is in their court! Plus, not all cats like a lot of direct affection, some receive it in other ways like playtime and quiet sitting.

Sarah has been a dedicated pet parent for 8 years and I have seen firsthand their loving care for their cats. From saving a cat that was hit by a car to nurturing a rescue cat that needed meds and diet changes, Sarah goes above and beyond with all animals in their care. Sarah is reliable, communicative, and just wants what's best for all animals. Their love for cats is apparent and they would be an excellent, trustworthy catsitter.

Frequently Asked Questions

New York cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
