John is the best cat sitter I’ve had. He was able to administer an inhaler to my more skiddish tortie with asthma, who normally won’t let anyone but me near her. Both the cats loved him and were happy and well taken care of when I returned. John was kind, timely, and professional. He gave me many updates and photos, which really helped me feel at ease.

I've never hired a stranger to care for my fur babies before so was very nervous about this process. Plus, both my cats have asthma and one can be quite anxious. To my pleasant surprise John was able to keep them both quite happy and healthy! He even tidied up and kept things clean. I was particularly happy that he checked in with me that I'd be home in time to feed them their next meal... that showed some forethought and care which was much appreciated! I would definitely recommend and hire him again!

John was excellent! He took care of our 3 cats and made sure to play with them while he was here. We loved all the photos and videos he sent during his visit.

John was absolutely amazing with my two kitties. The daily updates with pictures were so great and helped with the anxiety I always have on leaving for long trips. John even was able to get my girl kitty to be a little social with him and she usually hates strangers. Will definitely book him again. If you are looking for a cat sitter, John is the way to go!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee
We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations.

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.
