Finding the right place for your cat while you’re away is never a small decision. What most owners are really looking for isn’t just a place to stay, but a home where their cat will feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. In the Sheepshead Bay area of Brooklyn, Edwin offers exactly that kind of environment.

Edwin lives in a spacious one-bedroom apartment that is clean, well organized, and thoughtfully maintained. The space is calm and uncluttered, giving cats plenty of room to move around, explore, and settle in at their own pace. All windows are properly screened and secured, creating a safe indoor setting at all times.
Picture
“I became interested in cat boarding after taking care of a friend’s cat for two weeks while she was on vacation. That was when I realized how important it is for owners to have peace of mind knowing their pets are safe and cared for by someone they can trust.”

​Edwin is attentive, organized, and understands that every cat needs time and space to adjust. If you live in South Brooklyn, Edwin may be a great option to care for your cat(s). Feel free to contact us and tell us more about the service you’re looking for.

At Kitty in NY, we offer both cat sitting and in-home boarding in carefully selected private homes, depending on what works best for you and your cat.

Nice to meet you, I am Elizabeth...a big animal lover, former pet parent to Persian kitties. I have always enjoyed interacting with cats and dogs alike, but have about 20+ years of experience and affinity caring for felines! Persians, Himalayans, Maine Coons and everything in between. I am a native New Yorker that loves the outdoors and communicative/social by nature and feel our pets provide unconditional love, support and companionship. The key to a healthy pet is a happy pet who feels at ease in their environment. I look forward to meeting and caring for your furry pals.

Having Elizabeth care for my cat Freya while I was away with my fiance for a few days was nothing but easy and comforting. She explained the process thoroughly and told me her experiences with other cats while she listened very intently to my explanations on Freya's quirks and needs. I appreciated how often she sent pictures of Freya without question and it proved that Freya also loved to be in her company because of how cuddly she was being with Elizabeth. I would be absolutely thrilled to board with her again next time as she has been very accommodating and kind.

I'm very glad you referred me to her and I will continue to use Kitty In NY services for future plans to make sure Freya is well taken care of.

She was very caring and considered how my cat has so much anxiety and honored his space. This was my first time boarding my cat and being without him since I adopted him at 15 weeks old. He's 2.5 years old now. She is very caring and we felt that we left Marshmellow in good hands.  Her apartment is very clean and organized and feels safe for any pet to stay.  I highly recommend her to anyone looking for boarding services especially if it is your first time.

Rachelle was amazing! Super communicative and provided a very loving and safe environment for my senior kitty while I was on a trip to Greece.

Rachelle was a great caregiver. She was very communicative and sent us a lot of photos while we were gone. Her place was clean and tidy, which I felt provided a calm environment for the cats. She had a lot of cat toys that kept them active. She also made note of potential behavioral abnormalities (e.g. no poop in days, cat hiding for the most part of the day, etc.) and checked with us to see if that was normal or not.

At Kitty in NY, we are always happy to introduce cat lovers who open their homes to our clients’ cats. Today we would like you to meet Green, a caring and thoughtful host located in Bushwick, Brooklyn.

Green lives in a spacious two-bedroom, two-floor apartment with one roommate, who also loves cats. The apartment is clean, comfortable, and cat-ready, with all windows screened. Green stays on the top floor, which gives visiting cats a calm and cozy space where they can relax and settle in during their stay.

Green has loved cats since childhood. Her family had a cat named Pernod while she was growing up, and she has also cared for many friends’ and neighbors’ cats over the years. She understands how important it is to provide a safe, loving environment for someone else’s pet, and she has experience boarding cats for family and friends.
​
In addition to her love for animals, Green brings a calm and attentive presence to everything she does. She is a sound bath practitioner and leads workshops that help people connect with themselves. She is also working toward her master’s degree in mental health counseling at Hunter College. Creative and warm by nature, Green enjoys writing, playing music, dancing, reading, and discovering good pastries.

Kim provides in home-boarding services in the East Village, NYC

7/3/2026

We would like to introduce you to some of our caregivers. KITTY in NY has selected over the years some outstanding people who have one thing in common: they LOVE cats!

My name is Kim. I'm an interior designer that recently relocated my design studio in my two bedroom apartment. I recently created a new business "the curated home office" that is completely virtual.  Now I have time to be home and not running around or directing a design staff. Cats are the style queens and kings so I will have to ask them if the paint color is the right shade. 
Picture
My first cat appeared out of nowhere on the roof of my house, two weeks after my father and grandmother died suddenly. I realized at the tender age of 12 that cats were always going to be part of my life. They always find me. 

​Living in Tokyo a cat appeared in my window . I found Bee Bee, Chi Chi and the Boo 
under similar circumstances, abandoned and in need of a home . I also rescued a dog from a dumpster with cigarette burns . Her name was Pitunia (yes a tiny pit bull ) She was more like a cat than a dog living with two other felines. She lived to be 14 years so now you know I am not spring chicken. Like I said  they find me.

My  Millie  cat , renamed Millie Vanili had a lot of health issues at 15.  I recently had to put her down during the height of the pandemic. It was traumatic .

I am not ready to adopt another cat quite honestly and I miss them so dearly ... why not show that love to another's sweetie pie. I am the perfect aunt I always have gum and tissues in my bag and I always have catnip and toys in my house. 
​

If you're located on the Lower East Side or East Village, Kim will provide a perfect home for your furry friend until you're available. In-Home Boarding is a good solution for long term or very social cats. Contact us and send more details about the service you need. We'll be glad to help you.

I can’t even begin to express how amazing Kim was and how happy our kitty, Little Bits, was staying with her! We could tell from the second our zoom meeting with her started that she was going to be an amazing caretaker for our new family member. It’s obvious how much Kim loves kitties and how warm and fun she’d be as a sitter. She updated us on our little girl with pictures and videos and emails. It was really hard to leave our new addition in someone else’s home so soon after rescuing her, but Kim made it so easy and comforted us the whole time we were gone. I couldn’t imagine a better cat sitter exists out there!

I am so lucky to have met Kim. 
Kim is a very friendly lady, she is gentle and enthusiastic, and smiles all day. She took great care with my little boy cat I named Draco, more then I could have imagined. She cared for Draco like a mother to a son. She used to have experience with several cats and dogs, and she knows very well how to take care of a cat. She knows what cats like, what they need, what their behavior and emotions are like, and how to take care different kinds of them. 

Half a year ago, I had to leave Draco along in New York City, and my heart broke, but thankfully, I found Kim. The first time I saw her home through the video, I felt like I can trust her—her room is very warm and clean, with wood floor, carpets; it all felt very peaceful. Her windows were well protected and it just felt like the best place for my cat to be. 

In the last half year, she is just like what I felt and even better. Thanks to her, I was not that worried about Draco’s wellbeing (although I worried for him and missed him dearly). She treated Draco as a friend and family member. She combed Draco’s hair every day, and let Draco stay in his favorite spot on the carpet. She gave him premium wet food. Draco was getting sunshine and look out to the street every morning, sleeping with her at night. I realized that I hadn’t been treating him to the level that Kim was - I learned many good habits from her.  

She also sent me Draco’s photos every week, which gave me the chance to see what he was up to and how he looked. In the video and photo, I could see Draco trusted and loved her. Under her care, when I got Draco half a year later, I found out he become more gentle and soft, kinder, leaner and stronger. 

Draco is back in my arms right now, I hope Kim can find another little friend to keep company. And Hey! Believe me, she will be your best choice.
​
I saw four families on Kitty in NY, met all of them, and have one experience with another lady two years ago. No one was as good as Kim. She has great experience, friendly, kind, and so caring. She will take very good care of your cat, because she is their friend and keeps them company.

Cat Boarding in Crown Heights, Brooklyn: Meet Meghan

6/29/2026

0 Comments

 
Finding the right place for your cat while you are away can make all the difference. Some cats do best in a calm home environment where they can settle in, explore at their own pace, and receive personal attention without the stress of being surrounded by other animals. For cat parents looking for in-home cat boarding in Brooklyn, Meghan offers a quiet, comfortable, and cat-ready space in Crown Heights.

Meghan lives in a clean and modern one-bedroom apartment in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. Her home is peaceful and well suited for cats who enjoy a relaxed environment. The apartment is calm, tidy, and prepared to welcome feline guests, with fully screened windows for added safety. Because Meghan does not have pets of her own at the moment, visiting cats can enjoy her apartment as the only pets in the home.

Meghan grew up in a house with cats and has loved being around them her whole life. That early experience helped her understand how different each cat can be. Some cats want attention right away, while others need time to adjust to a new space. Meghan is attentive to those differences and understands the importance of respecting each cat’s routine, personality, and comfort level.
Picture
She enjoys giving cats attention and playtime when they are in the mood, but she also knows when to give them space. Her home is especially suitable for cats who prefer a calm environment and one-on-one attention.

In her free time, Meghan enjoys going for walks, spending time in the park, trying new restaurants, traveling, reading, and practicing yoga. Her calm and grounded personality is reflected in the kind of environment she offers: relaxed, warm, and welcoming.

For Brooklyn cat owners, Meghan’s Crown Heights location is a convenient option for in-home cat boarding.

At Kitty in NY, we specialize in cat sitting and in-home cat boarding throughout New York City. Our boarding service allows your cat to stay in a caregiver’s private apartment, where your cat will be the only pet in the home. For cats who prefer to remain in their own familiar environment, we also offer cat sitting visits in the client’s apartment. We serve Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and nearby areas, helping cat owners find safe, loving, and personalized care while they travel.

All I have to say is that when I went to pick my cat Milan from Erica he was better! She even was able to clean his paws which I could not do. I have to find out what her secret was lol! But I highly recommend Erica to take care of your cat baby. She’s sweet and kind. Also when I went to pick up my cat after my vacation everything was totally clean out the litter box his water fountain and his bowls. She’s the sweetest person. I’m definitely using her again when I go away. Milan loves her too.

We were also very pleased to work with you and KITTY in NY in placing Persha. You made the process easy and stress-free!

Cat Boarding in Harlem, Manhattan: Meet Andrea

At Kitty in NY, we are always happy to introduce caring, responsible cat lovers who can provide a safe and comfortable home for your cat while you are away. Today we would like to introduce Andrea, a wonderful caregiver located in Harlem, Manhattan.

Andrea lives in a spacious one-bedroom apartment with plenty of natural light. Her home is clean, comfortable, and fully prepared to welcome a visiting cat. All windows are screened, and the apartment offers enough room for a cat to explore, relax, look outside, or find a quiet corner when needed.

Andrea has had cats for most of her adult life and cared for her own cat for 15 years. Although she does not currently have pets, she misses having a cat around and would love to share her home with a guest cat while helping another cat parent travel with peace of mind.

One of Andrea’s strengths is that she understands that every cat has a different personality. Some cats are affectionate right away, while others need time, space, and patience before they feel comfortable. Andrea knows how important it is to respect a cat’s boundaries and allow each cat to adjust at their own pace.

Andrea is a retired nurse and has experience with pills and injections, which can be very helpful for cats who need medication during their stay. Her attentive and calm personality makes her a great option for cat boarding, especially for owners looking for a quiet, stable, and loving home environment.

If you live in Manhattan and are looking for cat boarding in Harlem, Andrea may be a great match for your cat.

Cat Boarding in the Lower East Side: Meet Elliot

6/12/2026

0 Comments

 
Finding the right cat boarding option in New York City can make a big difference when you need to travel. Some cats do better in a calm home environment where they can receive regular attention, gentle care, and a consistent routine. Elliot offers cat boarding in a spacious and very clean one-bedroom apartment in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, where he lives with his girlfriend.

Elliot’s apartment is well suited for visiting cats. All windows are screened, and the home provides a peaceful, comfortable space where a cat can settle in while their owner is away. The apartment is spacious and cat ready, which helps create a relaxed environment for cats who may need a little time to adjust to a new place.

One of the advantages of Elliot’s setup is that he works from home. This allows him to offer regular presence, attention, and supervision throughout the day. For many cats, especially those who enjoy quiet company or need reassurance in a new environment, having someone nearby can be very helpful.
​
Elliot has a genuine love for cats and understands the importance of patience and softness when caring for them. His approach is calm and respectful, giving each cat the time and space they need to build trust. He grew up surrounded by pets, including several cats, and is comfortable with different personalities and temperaments.
Picture
At Kitty in NY, we help cat owners find the best care option for their cats while they are away. We offer boarding, where your cat stays at a caregiver’s apartment, and sitting, where one of our caregivers visits your cat at your home. Boarding can be a great choice for cats who enjoy company and do well in a quiet home setting, while sitting is ideal for cats who prefer to remain in their own familiar environment.

Contact us and we will be happy to help you find the best option for your cat.

She describes herself as detailed and punctual, qualities we value highly when matching caregivers with our clients.

Kimberly shares her home with family members who are also comfortable around cats and supportive of the boarding arrangement. She works in customer service, so she understands the importance of clear communication, reliability, and helping clients feel reassured while they are away. She is attentive, responsible, and comfortable following detailed care instructions, including medication when clearly explained by the cat’s owner.

William did an amazing job caring for my 4 month old kitten. He gave him the attention he needed as a playful kitten and sent frequent updates that helped me relax while I was away. He is very knowledgeable with cats and very attentive to their behaviours!

William took fantastic care of my cats Remy and Georgia in August! They are young and can be a handful and he handled them great. Georgia is a kitten and it was her first time being at a sitter… She refused to eat for several days, but William was so great about trying everything he could to get her to eat, and she finally did!
I would definitely recommend and use him again. I also loved how communicative he was - especially when I knew Georgia was not eating, he was giving me plenty of updates that helped me not to worry too much.

William took excellent care of my cat who is pretty high maintenance and not very sociable. He made a point of learning about her preferences, daily routine, eating habits, likes and dislikes, etc. From the moment I met William I knew that my cat would be in very good hands. William loves and understands cats. He sent me daily updates with pictures and videos. My cat is rather hard to please and is not usually friendly with strangers. I was amazed at how quickly she warmed up to William. They say that cats are good judges of character. William is such a warm, kind and caring person that even my shy and unsocial cat felt at ease with him. I think she received more attention from him that she does from me. I would highly recommend William and will be happy to use his services in the future.

William was extremely attentive to my cats and was very patient to learn about each of their individual personalities. He provided me many updates and I felt very at ease knowing that he was providing very high quality care. His updates each day were also very thoughtful -- I didn't worry at all while I was away. I think William is my favorite sitter so far since discovering Kitty in NY. He truly deserves more credit!!

Everything went really well for my cat Matilda’s stay with William.

William took really good care of Matilda, was very thoughtful for her needs and kept me updated throughout. She settled in straight away and looked very relaxed and happy which gave me huge peace of mind while away.

We will be in touch next time we go away so we can book William to care for her again!

He was very good about staying in communication with me and Cleo enjoyed her time with him.Bill was very thorough and meticulous in following the care instructions and providing a comprehensive update every day through text.

Meet Mohammed, a Cat Lover in Astoria, Queens

6/1/2026

0 Comments

 
In-home cat boarding can be a wonderful option for cats who do well in a calm home environment. Instead of staying in a cage or a busy facility, your cat stays in a private apartment where they can receive personal attention, follow their usual routine, and enjoy a quieter experience.

Mohammed lives with his wife in a clean, spacious one-bedroom apartment. Their home is calm, well kept, and thoughtfully prepared for cats, with screened windows for added safety. Both Mohammed and his wife genuinely enjoy the company of cats and understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident when they are away.

Professionally, Mohammed is an architect, and his organized, attentive personality comes through in the way he approaches cat care. He is intelligent, responsible, and easy to communicate with, which helps make the booking process smooth for both clients and our team. He understands that every cat has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, and he is happy to follow each cat’s specific needs. His goal is to make every cat feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether a cat is playful, shy, independent, or affectionate, Mohammed is happy to give them the time and space they need to feel at home.
Picture
Mohammed’s home in Astoria offers a peaceful setting for cat boarding. His clean apartment, screened windows, and gentle approach help create a safe and comfortable space for cats while their families travel. For many clients, boarding with one of our caregivers is a great alternative to traditional cat sitting, especially when they prefer their cat to have more direct companionship during their time away.

If you are looking for cat boarding in Astoria, Queens, or need help finding the best care option for your cat, Kitty in NY will be happy to help. Contact us with your travel dates and your cat’s needs, and we will do our best to match you with a loving caregiver like Mohammed.

Julia - A Quiet and Loving Boarding Home for Cats on the UWS

5/1/2026

0 Comments

 
If you are looking for a quiet, attentive home for your cat in Manhattan, Julia offers a calm and comfortable boarding environment on the Upper West Side.

Julia lives alone in a spacious one-bedroom apartment on West 102nd Street. As an author and writer, she spends much of her time working from home, which allows her to give plenty of attention and companionship to the cats she hosts.

She has loved and cared for cats throughout her entire adult life, raising them from kittens to adulthood. Although she recently lost her own beloved cat, her home is still fully prepared with everything a visiting kitty might need, and she truly enjoys having feline company around again.

Safety is also a priority. All windows in the apartment open only from the very top and have secure bars, so cats cannot fit through them. Julia’s home provides a safe indoor space where cats can relax and feel comfortable.
​
Julia is experienced with administering medications, including pills and fluids, and she is also happy to learn any specific care routine your cat may need.
Picture
Her quiet home, flexible schedule, and lifelong affection for cats make Julia a wonderful option for cats who enjoy a peaceful environment with lots of human presence.

Kitty in NY offers both cat boarding in carefully selected homes and in-home cat sitting visits throughout New York City, so you can choose the option that best fits your cat’s personality and routine.

Linda’s Home in Woodside: Calm & Caring Cat Boarding

3/24/2026

0 Comments

 
If you’re looking for a calm, caring home for your cat in Queens, Linda offers a wonderful boarding option in Woodside. She lives in a spacious one-bedroom apartment, with all windows fully screened, creating a safe and comfortable environment where cats can truly relax.

Linda has shared her life with animals for as long as she can remember, and that experience shows in the way she connects with them. She currently volunteers at a shelter, working with cats of all ages and personalities. As she puts it: “I’m used to all the personalities and peculiarities among them.” That familiarity translates into confident, attentive care tailored to each individual cat.
​
Her approach is simple but thoughtful. Cats staying with Linda are not just “looked after,” they are welcomed into a home. “In my care your cat will enjoy their own mini vacation with personalized attention,” she explains. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers quiet independence, she adapts to their needs. There’s space to explore, cozy spots to nap, and even some natural “entertainment” from birds visible through the window.
Picture
Linda is also comfortable administering medications such as pills when needed, and she understands the level of trust it takes to leave your cat in someone else’s care. Her goal is to make both you and your cat feel at ease from the moment you walk out the door.

At Kitty in NY, we personally meet and evaluate every caregiver to ensure they provide a safe, loving environment. We connect cat parents with experienced, independent caregivers like Linda for both boarding (in the caregiver’s home) and sitting (in your home), depending on what works best for you and your cat.

Get in touch and tell us more about your cat(s) and the care you need. We’ll be glad to help you find the best match and make sure your cat is in good hands while you’re away.

Hello, my name is Robin Dann. I have always loved animals as a kid. As an adult I had multiple cats of my own, mostly rescued strays. At the moment I do not own any pet but I do miss having them around! I have a cat-sitting experience and look forward to making it a regular part of my life. I live alone in a comfortable one-bedroom apartment, work part-time in a design studio and don’t go out much, so your pet will get lots of attention and play in your absence. The one bedroom apartment with plenty screened windows is in a doorman building. Apartment is on second floor. Building is located in Midwood neighborhood in Brooklyn NY.

Robin watched my cats for over a year, and I could not have asked for a better sitter. She not only kept them safe and well-cared for, but she also truly loved them and provided them with a home. I am eternally grateful to her. If I should ever need a catsitter again, I know I can count on her to provide them with the very best care.

This was my first time leaving Coco for boarding. He had just turned two and was recently neutered, and as an extremely cautious cat parent, I was very hesitant. Coco is also a rare British Shorthair whom I invested a lot in, so it was important for both of us to feel completely safe. I specifically did not want a traditional boarding facility where he would be caged around other cats and dogs, and instead wanted a sitter where he would be the only cat. I was fortunate to find KittyinNY, who was able to accommodate this request and match me with Yana.

My work schedule was very unpredictable, and I had to change my requested dates a few times (which I wouldn’t recommend), but KittyinNY was still able to work with me. Yana lives about 40 minutes away, so I would likely only use her again if absolutely necessary due to the distance. That said, she was wonderful with Coco. She sent daily videos, and he looked happy and comfortable. I was away for two weeks over the holidays and felt at ease knowing Coco was in her care.
