We’re happy to introduce Arrizo, one of our trusted caregivers offering boarding services in Flushing, Queens. Warm, gentle, and attentive, she provides a calm, loving home where cats can feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their families are away.

Arrizo lives in a comfortable two-bedroom apartment on 75th Avenue, a quiet residential area of Flushing. The space is homey and inviting, with a cozy living room and several ideal lounging spots where cats can nap, explore, or simply observe their surroundings.

She shares the apartment with her sister, and her mother visits frequently. It’s a warm, family-style environment—perfect for cats who enjoy human presence and gentle, steady companionship.

Arrizo describes herself as:

Arrizo is a great match for:

• Social cats who enjoy gentle human interaction

• Multi-cat households (she can host more than one kitty guest when suitable)

She does not administer medications, so boarding is best for healthy cats who need only love, routine, and supervision.

Emma grew up surrounded by cats – in fact, one of her beloved seniors stayed by her side until 22 years old, a testament to her gentle nature and deep understanding of feline needs.

At Kitty in NY, we handpick caregivers who genuinely love cats, and Gloria is a perfect example of that spirit. “I have always had a love for cats. Their beauty, diversity and personality difference is apparent to each individual cat, no matter the breed. Their aloofness and independence are what I love the most, though some can be wonderfully affectionate as well.”

Gloria worked with Kitty in NY for several years as an in-home boarder before Covid-19. Over that time, she built strong trust with clients, many of whom traveled regularly during the holidays, summer months, and long seasonal trips. One of her most loyal returning clients spent every summer in Europe, leaving their beloved cat in her care for multiple years, often for several months at a time. “They trusted me with their precious pet for several months, year after year. I had many returning clients, especially owners who traveled regularly for the holidays.”
​
Caring for cats in a home environment offers something unique : comfort, calm, familiar routines, and personal attention. For Gloria, in-home boarding has always been an alternative she admires and enjoys facilitating. “Being an in-home boarder gives me the opportunity to offer cat owners a safe, loving option in my home, where their cats can enjoy the same freedom they would have at their own home.”

Gloria also recognizes the value of working alongside our agency to make long-term plans smooth and stress-free. “I appreciate having Kitty in NY intercede any issues or changes with the contract. It’s important to have an agency as an intermediary: especially when clients need flexibility or extended stays.”

If you're looking for a boarding service in Manhattan (NYC) with personalized, home-based attention, Gloria is ready to welcome your cat into her cozy, cat-friendly space.

Home boarding offers a stable routine, low stress, safe space, and the emotional comfort that only a home environment can provide. At Kitty in NY, all caregivers follow clearly established guidelines and communication protocols to ensure that every cat stay is safe, structured and filled with individual love and attention.

If this feels like the right choice for your cat, we’re happy to guide you through the next steps and ensure a seamless boarding experience.

We’re pleased to introduce Gwen, a highly experienced cat sitter offering in-home visits on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.

Originally from Ireland, Gwen has lived in the UES since the early 1990s. Before transitioning into pet care, she worked in corporate aviation as a flight attendant and crew supervisor—roles that required calm judgment, strong communication, and exceptional attention to safety and comfort. She brings those same qualities to every cat she cares for.

Experienced, reliable, and medically confident

Gwen has cared for cats her entire life and has extensive experience with:

• Senior cats
• Cats requiring daily medications
• Cats with complex or chronic medical needs

Her approach is patient, proactive, and highly attentive, offering the kind of careful monitoring that gives cat owners true peace of mind.

A calm and caring presence in your home

​Since her own building is not pet-friendly, Gwen considers cat sitting the “next best thing” to having a cat of her own. She takes pride in making each kitty feel safe, loved, and understood, and she treats every home with the same respect she brought to her aviation career.

She is available for daily cat sitting visits throughout the Upper East Side.
If you’re traveling and need someone dependable to care for your feline family member, Gwen may be the perfect match.

Oscar was BRILLIANT! He went above and beyond in caring for my cat, sending me photos and videos while I was away (which made me want to come to the cat!!). But Oscar also dealt with me with kindness and compassion - I had to mess him around a bit, due to health issues I'm dealing with - he never once made me feel like I was being painful (even though I was). He even took the cat litter rubbish/wet food cans home with him, and didn't leave them for me to deal with. I'd recommend Oscar in a heartbeat - he clearly loves cats, but he's also a really good human being.

Oscar was GREAT. He got our crabby kitty to play with him which i didn’t think would be possible. She is so skeptical of strangers and has swiped at many cat sitters in the past.

Oscar was a perfect caregiver to my Maxie on the two days I had to be away. When Oscar first met Maxie, he let Maxie sniff him in order for Maxie to get comfortable with him. Oscar asked me all the necessary questions in order to provide the best service. He played with Maxie and took gorgeous pictures and videos of him during his visits, he cleaned the litter box, and after feeding Maxie, he took the empty cans of food with him to throw away elsewhere as there were no signs of discarded cans in the kitchen trash. He even cleaned Maxie's food bowls and let them dry by the sink. He also took a picture of my apartment keys so that I would know where to find them. I couldn't have been more pleased. Thank you!

I asked for a sitter who would be open to visit twice a day, with fresh food in the morning and evening. With each visit, Oscar sent texts with pics and videos providing evidence he was making an effort to interact w/ my anti-social cat, Buddy. Oscar even got Buddy to play w/ toys that I thought he had long ago lost interest in. It was clear from when I introduced Oscar to Buddy that he was a cat person - even Buddy was immediately rubbing against his legs. When I returned home after a 4-day weekend, Buddy was clearly healthy and the apartment was not the wreck I expected from my cat.

I immediately was drawn to how warm, genuine and all around nice Oscar was - everyone loved Oscar ! My cats loved Oscar ! My hubby loved Oscar ! Even my doorman loved Oscar ! Even almost a month later, when I told my doorman Oscar is coming back to watch the cats again - they were like: " Oh, yeah, Oscar, very nice guy."

Literally, he was so nice, that even my doormen remembered him from a month before! Additionally, he takes professional photographer like photos and sent us a bunch of pictures each time that were one of a kind !

Very professional and considerate. Email updates everyday with photo and video attachments. Not only took care of my cat but also cleaned the environment. 

I do feel that Oscar has the passion and love for cats and it reflected on his cat-sitting works. My cat is shy, not every caregiver got the chance to see or pet my cat but Oscar made it all, which took me by surprise. I guess my cat likes him!

Oscar notified us both times he visited per day via text, and sent amazing pictures of our cat as well. I wouldn't be surprised if he's a photographer on the side!

Oscar sent us amazing pictures everyday where the cats were active and looked content. When we got back he must have vacuumed and cleaned because there was no litter anywhere. The cats were happy and healthy and seemed very well taken care of. 

Oscar took great care of our cats. We were very happy, again, with your service. Also, Oscar must have a gig as a photographer, because his daily snapshots were fantastic.

She was experienced and knowledgeable with caring for an elderly, special needs cat. Jen was the FIRST sitter we have ever had who did NOT have any issues medicating our Ittybitty. We will definitely request her for our next kitty-sitting needs.

Nina will be glad to welcome your kitty in her apartment. You will receive periodic updates during the service. Your cat will be the only pet in the apartment!

I really appreciate that the caregiver took care of my cat so kindly and warmly.

At KITTY in NY, we are proud to work with caregivers who combine skill, reliability, and genuine affection for every cat they meet. Maureen is one of those special people.

A long-time member of our team, Maureen returns to Kitty in NY after taking time off to nurse her own newly adopted cat back to health—an experience that deepened her already strong understanding of feline needs. With years of cat care experience, she is skilled at engaging with playful, chatty cats while also offering gentle comfort to senior kitties who simply crave a soft pet or a warm tummy rub.

When asked why Maureen would like to go back to Kitty in New York, she remarked:  “I love taking care of these sweetie pies and making them feel special and then sending a photo to their parents to let them know their little ones are in good hands.”

If you live on the Upper West Side and need a trusted, attentive cat sitter, Maureen could be the perfect match. Cat sitting visits are ideal for short-term care, whether for a quick trip or a few weeks away. You’ll receive photo updates after each visit, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your cat is happy and cared for.
​
Contact us with details about your cat(s) and the service you need—we’ll be happy to connect you with Maureen or another trusted caregiver.

As always, Maureen was wonderful. She takes such great care of my cats, sends me detailed updates and lots of pictures, and is very responsive to any requests that I have. I feel totally happy leaving the cats in her care. With other cat sitters, My shy cats would often hide the entire time, but with her, they always come out and say hello. Thank you, Maureen!

Maureen was attentive, thoughtful, and so very sweet to Suki! We loved all her photos and timely emails, and felt comforted by all of her knowledgeable questions when she first came to visit us and meet Suki. We would be so happy to have Maureen come take care of Suki again. She was great!

Maureen was very good from the moment I met her. I felt very comfortable leaving my two fur babies in her care. She took notes on everything I was telling her and was very attentive and asked questions. While I was away, I received Daley updates and pictures and she did an amazing job!

Maureen bonded with my cat Cooper instantly at their first meeting, so I felt confident that this would work. Maureen then provided excellent communication – before and during the trip – with quick response to emails and much appreciated daily updates and photos showing Cooper at play. Best of all, Cooper seems completely happy, healthy and well cared for. Maureen was terrific!

Tim - by email
Maureen was easy to coordinate with to set up the initial meeting. During our vacation, Maureen sent us pictures every day. When we arrived home, the cats were healthy and happy.

Dan - by email
Maureen was incredibly responsive, really knew her stuff about taking care of my cat, went over and above in terms of making sure he had food that he needed and would eat despite his just having switched over to a renal care diet. He’s also a tricky cat to bond with, but she had him purring the whole way, & kept me up to speed with photos and updates. It really put me at ease that my little guy was in good hands. 

Suzanne - by email
Maureen was fantastic! She was caring and loving with our favorite boy, Leopold :-) She sent us great photos and kept us updated on all his funny shenanigans!

Jean is the absolute best. She went above and beyond for my cats while I was away for just over two months, and really went above and beyond for me as well, making sure I had whatever updates she could provide, even if only to say that the cats were doing just fine! My biggest stressor when I was preparing for my extended business trip was what was going to happen with my cats while I was gone, and Jean alleviated every single fear or worry I ever could have possibly had. From the photos and updates she sent it was very clear that my cats loved her, and she loved them, which is more than I ever could have asked for. She’ll be my first choice for cat care from here on out.

Great care, great contact, Jean sends photos every day. My cat liked her very much and quickly became friends. When I came to pick him up he didn't want to go home 😄. I recommend this caregiver.
