KiKi's City Kitty Cat Sitting in NYC

Hi, I'm Kristen but everybody calls me KiKi (she/her)! I'm a cat mom to my 11-year-old handsome polydactyl boy, Nibs, who has been in my life since early kittenhood.

By day, I work in book publishing and moonlight as a fashion stylist/blogger and freelance writer. I also love cats, a LOT. So much so that I have a tattoo of my three cats (two of whom have crossed the rainbow bridge, after being in my life for over 10 years) on my arm. Nibs and I relocated to New York in 2018 from the South and have loved every second of lives here--the city always has something fun in store!

I have over three years of pet sitting experience and am Pet CPR and First Aid certified. I've worked with cats of all different ages and backgrounds and have experience in administering medications and injections, basic grooming, and litter training, to name a few areas of expertise. As a child of the internet, I've also mastered the art of catching great lifestyle snapshots and video of cats (as evidenced by Nibs going viral on Tiktok) as an added bonus, which gives you fun visual updates to look forward to while you're away :)

I'm available within Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens for bookings. I work full-time from 9-5 in lower Manhattan on weekdays, so the best times for drop-ins are in the early mornings and late afternoons with the possibility to do additional drop-ins around lunch time. I have open availability on weekends and am open to overnight stays. I look forward to meeting you and your cat(s)!
