It was a great relief to have Sarah taking care of our scaredy cat while we were away. She did everything we asked, sent regular updates and pictures and seemed genuinely interested in getting to know our kitty. Sarah is also kind and professional. I highly recommend her. Thank you Sarah!

Unfortunately, I honestly don’t know if I could recommend Sarah as a cat sitter. She was very responsive and brought in my packages which was very nice of her. On the other hand, almost every day the updates she sent me were from my own bed. Maybe it’s the New Yorker in me, but a stranger laying (yes, laying down) on my bed with their outside clothes on and potentially shoes makes me uncomfortable, but she was taking care of my cat and had full access to my home so I didn’t feel comfortable saying anything. Additionally, I came home (1 day after her last day of care) to completely empty food and water bowls. I always leave a second big bowl of food and of water out when I travel—that I explicitly told her about, sharing that I worry my cat will not have access to what he needs—and those were empty and bone dry as well. Finally, his litter was everywhere when I returned, not a huge deal, but it was much more than would just be from him jumping from his box. She was observant of my cat and that he had thrown up mid way through my travels which I appreciate, but the lack of boundaries and coming home to 4 completely empty bowls where food and water should be was quite shocking to me. I had never truly felt the need to get a pet camera and monitor my cat’s care while I was away until now.

Sarah stepped up at the last minute to help use. Much appreciated and the cats seemed satisfied, although it is always hard to tell with them. Thanks.

Our third time having Sarah watch our two kitties and we are so pleased! The cats seemed so happy and were thrilled with the attention they got. They haven’t been left alone for an extended trip in almost a year but they did great with Sarah’s care.

Sarah was incredible!! My two boys absolutely loved her 😻. She was able to get my shy guy, Meatball, to come out of his shell and made sure he got equal loving, scritches, and treats as his more social brother. Sarah sent amazing photos and gave me super thorough updates. I would HIGHLY recommend booking Sarah to sit your fur children.

Sarah was a wonderful cat sitter, she charmed all three of my kitties into loving and feeling safe with her! I was especially worried about my timid boy, but he took to her right away! She was very responsive and helped relieve a lot of my stress while I was away. Couldn’t have asked for anyone better!

Sarah was amazing with updates and photos while we were away - we felt so reassured she was taking great care of our kitties, giving them care and attention in the ways that worked for each of them! She even went above and beyond when we realized we forgot to water our plants. Very kind and trustworthy :)

Sarah is Kushka's regular sitter - she takes good care of him, genuinely enjoys his company, takes great photos, swift and clear in communicating with us, and ensures our home is safe and secure when she leaves. He's a lot happier when we come back!

My kitten and I could NOT have had a better experience than we had with Sarah! She was so sweet, attentive, thoughtful, and for me as a pet parent it really meant a lot to feel like she genuinely cared about her work and was truly bonding with my kitten 🥰!!

Sarah was a great cat-caregiver to our shy kitty. We were out of the country for close to 2 weeks and I wanted to make sure our cat had a wonderful and responsible caregiver during our absence. Sarah was that person! She was detail oriented, sent us specific updates, and most importantly, she sent us photos showing our kitty having a good time. She even took care of our packages and mail! We are looking forward to having Sarah back!

Sarah was great. Good and conscientious communicator. And the cat was in a good mood after my return. Usually he scolds and complains after we're gone for a few days, but this time it was like, "Hey, I got a great new staff person, so maybe I'll reduce your hours!"

This was the second time we had Sarah come take care of our cat, and just as during her first time caring for him, she stayed in close communication with updates. She was so patient with him through his grumpy phase, and somehow convinced him to play with her and to flop over belly up! She always made sure to double-check that he had what he needed. We came home a week later to a happy cat and clean apartment!

Sarah did an awesome job with our girls and even got our very shy Bree to come out for some pats! Everything looked perfect when we got home and the girls are already relaxed, which shows how comfortable she made them feel! She's also great at responding and sending photos etc. Would highly recommend!

Sarah is terrific, the model of what a cat sitter should be. Of course she did all the basic things perfectly: fed them correctly, cleaned the litter, played with them when they were in the mood, and sent me timely and detailed descriptions of how they were doing, all with photographs. But, on top of this, she gave me very good advice on how to improve their diet, the superiority of certain implements for litter cleaning to the ones I have, etc. The truth is that after years of cat-sitting and reading a vast amount of material on the care of domestic felines, Sarah has become a cat expert. An additional point: beyond her thoroughness and knowledge, the thing that really impressed was Sarah's ability to befriend my two cats. This wasn't easy -- one of them is extremely wary of new people and usually hides in a closet when I'm gone, and the other can be a little aggressive with strangers including new cat sitters. Yet, on the very first day Sarah sent me a photo of the two cats, sitting together (something they never do with me) and watching her with quiet curiosity. By the next day, Sarah and my cats and become friends. And when, after 5 days, I arrived home, I found both cats calm and less stressed than they ever have been before after my trips. In sum, Sarah is not your ordinary cat sitter. I can’t imagine I would rather have caring for Gertie and Gus when I’m away.

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 $32.00. 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.
