I'm Ariel | Cat Sitting in Troy, NY
Hello cat parents! I have owned and cared for cats my entire life and have four fur balls at home that I love and care for. I have been a cat sitter for 10+ years and a Meowtel sitter since 2019 with 200+ reservations to date! I just moved back to my hometown in the capital region from the LA area and I am eager to meet some new upstate kittiesš» My schedule is very flexible (sometimes even including dates not marked on the Meowtel calendar) so feel free to ask if a date you are interested in is blocked off! All prices listed include a meet and greet to learn your kitty's routine and key pickup (any additional trips outside of normally scheduled visits can be negotiated for an additional fee!) Having a kitty with medical issues can be difficult and finding a sitter with experience administering medication is a must! This is an issue I understand first hand, as two of my kitties take pills and liquid medications daily! If your kitty needs any medications, I have experience giving injectable, oral, and topical treatments, as well as inhalers. When booking, please indicate if your pets need medication and at what ...

Ariel's Reviews
Raquel
Ariel was very attentive to my cats and their signals. I could tell she really cared about them and she followed all instructions to a T. My cats were big fans!
Carl
Ariel was absolutely fantastic for our two kitties! She stopped by for a meet-and-greet before our trip, she accommodated our requests for visit time of day, and she went way above and beyond with the pics and updates!! Our boys were very well-fed and content when we returned!
Mary
Ariel is wonderful! Our second time booking her and will again!
Ria
Our usual cat sitter was not available when we needed to go out of town, and honestly I was really worried! However, we found Ariel and she was wonderful with our two kitties! She sent a ton of pictures and videos and kept us updated during each visit. She was quick to respond and made us feel so comfortable (especially during the pre-visit to get our keys!). We will definitely be booking with her again!
Trevor
Ariel was amazing help with our senior kitty, while we were out of town. Our cat is very nervous and shy, and occasionally grumbly, but Ariel was so kind and patient with her! She was super communicative and all around fabulous. We are hoping to work with her again as often as we can!

Frequently Asked Questions
Troy cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. 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.
