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
Taylor
She did a great job taking care of our two kitties!! Thank you again, Cara!
Siobhan
Cara was excellent. My sweet girl does not like strangers and could be a little cranky when Cara came to take care of her but Cara took it in stride and was so sweet to her. She also provided detailed and clear updates and great photos. I would definitely ask Cara to watch my cat again when I go away.
Tori
Cara was an amazing catsitter! She had great attention to detail, provided in depth updates and quick responses, and was very patient and empathetic when our cat got spooked at home. I also appreciated how she was transparent with any scheduling conflicts before accepting the reservation. All around great experience with Cara!
Gaby
Cara was yet again fabulous with my high maintenance cat Arya! Of all the cat sitters I’ve used, my cat reacts the best to Cara. She is truly phenomenal!
Samantha
This was my second time with Cara and she truly went above and beyond to take care of Satan. He has serious separation anxiety and she took great care to make him feel happy and at home. Her updates are detailed and she really put me at ease about leaving him alone.

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 $33.00. 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.
