I'm Shelly | Cat Sitting in Staten Island, NY
Hello! My name is Shelly. Helping and rescuing cats is one of my most important goals- makes sense as I have been surrounded by cats my entire life! I currently have two cats of my own that I love with my entire heart, along with a foster. While I would love to rescue all the cats in the world, due to space and money constraints I hope to pass my love over to your cats for the time being! My best traits are that I am incredibly vigilant and take the utmost care to ensure the cats I am with are healthy, happy, and feeling safe. Any changes to your cats behavior...

Shelly's Reviews
Meowtel
Shelly is a background-checked cat sitter in the Staten Island area. Their profile has been verified and their references have been checked by Meowtel.
Karina
Shelly is a great candidate for a cat sitter because she is both incredibly caring and incredibly knowledgeable and eager to learn. She is wholeheartedly dedicated to caring for cats, and she is also constantly in pursuit of new knowledge to help guide her to become a better cat owner and caretaker for cats. She is always striving to become better than she was yesterday at what she is already good at, and I think those are the exact qualities that will benefit her greatly if she is selected to be a cat sitter.
Ariel
Shelly is extremely caring and loving to any and all cats. Her work as a volunteer feeder to a local feral cat colony shows her dedication to the safety and health of cats besides her own. She has a playful energy but knows when to respect a cat’s boundaries and care from a distance. I know Shelly will provide the best care and companionship for any cat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Staten Island cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. 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.
