I'm Daphne

Learn More About Daphne
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I’ve done cat sitting for more than a decade for friends, family, strangers, and neighbors. I’ve even had the pleasure of sitting for cats and personally watch them grow up, as well! I am well aware that every home, and kitty, are special and have their own preferences and needs.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes! I’ve adopted and parented multiple cats over the years. It is such an honor to have them in my life. My brother sister bonded pair are named Link and Zelda! :)
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
Bring all of your concerns and questions! All your worries and preferences, as well. The more information the better so that you could feel at ease, and so that the sitter can get a good picture of your kitty and their life. No such thing as a bad question.

Daphne is a compassionate, reliable, and detail oriented cat sitter. She not only lovingly cared for my cat but also confidently handled my sister’s elderly cat, Tray, who required daily insulin shots. Daphne had no hesitation administering the injections and kept us updated with photos and messages. She brings calm professionalism and genuine care to every visit. Your cat will be in excellent hands with her!

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.
New York cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.
Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet!
