I am a writer who lives alone in a large studio apartment in midtown Manhattan. I had two wonderful cats – Bo Diddley and Roxy - here for 20 years. They both died of cancer in the same year and I was so heartbroken I didn’t ever want to have my own cat again. But when I took care of a girlfriend’s cat when she went on vacation, I realized how much I love having a little furry creature in my life, so I signed up with Kitty In NY.

Antoinette was extremely loving and caring towards Buki. I had no service over the weekend and she was patient with our communication. She made sure to text and email updates and pictures of Buki. Buki was great upon my return. I highly recommend Antoinette and Kitty in NY!

Toni was amazing. Had something fall through with our previous cat caretaker and called Kitty in NY and was connected with Toni. She took us in very last minute and took the best care of our kitten Parker. She sent tons of photos and had a lot of fun with him over the weekend. It's very very obvious that Toni adores cats and animals in general and is very knowledgeable about their care. She had the nicest things to say about him. Parker is a slippery one who gets everywhere and has no idea what danger is, so making sure he's safe and happy is very important to us. With Toni, I had not a worry in the world. Will definitely book again with her!!

Toni was a wonderful sitter! She kept us up to date about our two kitties while we were gone for 2 weeks with lots of fun photos. She clearly has a love for cats and really enjoys taking care of them. We definitely plan to hire her again in the future!

Toni loves to take photos of cats so she provides an update or two every day with photos of our cat. When we went to pick our baby up at her apartment, we can tell that our baby was very relaxed (she just plop onto the carpet) and happy (tail high in the air and running all over the place).

Antoinette obviously adores cats, and took care of my two 17-year-olds with medical needs. She did an excellent job.

Toni was an absolutely fantastic host to our cat. She sent us pictures showing how happy he was every day. When I picked him up, he didn't want to leave! And she was so friendly and accommodating in every way. We will definitely ask her to babysit our cat the next time we go away. Thank you for introducing her to us.

Antoinette was very warm and understanding of all the perks in our cat's behavior. Our kitty is very shy and Tony gave her full access to a closet to hide :-) She was sending us updates every few days as well.

Toni is amazing. She sent me many pictures of my cat everyday and provided detailed updates about my cat. When I got home, my cat was completely content and happy. I will definitely ask Toni to take care of my cat next time I am out of town.

Toni was more than wonderful, and went above and beyond any and all expectations. She got to know Tildy, she made sure my sweet old kitty was comfortable, picking her up and then down from the bed, sending photos, Toni was more wonderful than I could have anticipated - Tildy is now one spoiled kitty!

Antoinette sent me a lot of pictures each day, and spent some time each visit playing with my cat. I have a very personable, energetic cat who needs a lot of attention. When I came home after four days away, he seemed happy and carefree, which I took to be a great sign. Thank you!

Toni was absolutely amazing. We got awesome pictures every single visit, and the cats definitely loved her. They weren't even cross with us for leaving them! It was so great having peace of mind that they were being cared for by someone who loves cats as much as we do. :) We'll definitely use your service whenever we have to be away from home
