I'm Cara | Cat Sitting in New York, NY
Hi, My name is Cara and, my other job is being an Elementary School teacher. So, patience and being a good listener are some traits I will bring to being your Cat Sitter. A couple years ago I inherited my sister's beautiful Maine Coon boys. I have had a passion ever since in everything Cat. It was a big learning curve in understanding everything about caring for them. In the process, I have learned so much and I feel qualified to share this with caring for other furr...
Cara's Reviews
Evelyn
Cara is an amazing cat sitter. Super detailed update everyday and lovely photos. My cat definitely had a great time with her. Muffin is usually very angry and grumpy after I come back from a trip but this time she’s only slightly annoyed! Will definitely partner with Cara again.
Camille
As always Cara did a great job with Felix and even got him more treats when I ran out and batteries for his toy! Thanks again!! 💜
Camille
As usual Cara did a great job caring for my Felix and she really tries playing with him even though he can be standoffish lol… this is my second time booking her and will book again!
Amanda
Cara was amazing! I am so grateful to have found her and I feel so much better having to travel for work knowing Cara is looking after my cat.

Cara did a great job with our cat, Sergei. We got detailed and humorous daily updates and lots of pics. We'd hire her again in a minute.

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.
