Kaitlyn
Ian is one of the best catsitters we’ve ever had! It is evident how much he loves kitties and will treat yours like they are his own. Not only was he great following the instructions for our cat with allergies and avoiding cross-contamination, but was amazing at giving us thorough updates on the cat’s eating habits, behaviors, and he always included pictures. He let us know what time to expect him back the following visit and was always timely! We were able to enjoy our vacation with zero stress because of how at ease we felt leaving our cats under Ian’s care. We will certainly be booking Ian again!!

Ian is a lifelong cat lover who has over 20 years of experience caring for cats of all ages. He is extremely reliable and communicative and maintains a consistent, calm, and friendly demeanor with all cats he meets. He is no stranger to administering medication when needed and enjoys all personality types. He currently lives with two one year old cats that he rescued himself, and I cannot recommend him enough to help care for your cats while you're away.

I can't say enough good things about Ian and his knowledge and care for cats. He is very respectful and a great communicator - someone I feel comfortable coming to my home. His love for cats is evident, and he is someone you will want to build a connection with as a sitter.

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 $31.00. 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.
