    I’m a 24 year old Mexican girl who loves kitties, avocado and music. I normally like to keep all my spaces clean and neat. I identify my personality like a cat, independent but lovable. All my life I’ve had cats and my favorite are black cats. All my cats have been rescue cats. Back in Mexico, my mom and I domesticated and adopted a black feral cat that we love so much today.

    Hi, I’m Amanda! I fall in the category of “cat person” among friends, but I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, fish, and chinchillas throughout my life! I lived in Japan for two years and tried to visit as many cat islands as I could – my only regret is that I couldn’t take all the cats back with me! I have two kitties of my own and I can confidently say that they rule my household. I have lived with cats of all ages and am comfortable providing care and administering medicine.
    ​

    I’m a planner by nature, so I will make sure that we cover all the small details to ensure your cat is taken care of and comfortable while you’re away! I’ve had to travel for extended periods in my life before and completely understand what it feels like to leave your cats in the care of others. You can expect to receive full updates and pictures during visits because I love trying to get that perfect picture of a happy cat!

    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!

    Hello there! My name is Nathalie. I was born and raised in Venezuela, sadly in most of South America there are animals wandering in the streets, always in danger. Looking at them made me realize how much love I have for animals, I would give them food, take care of them, some of them I would foster at my own place if I was allowed and often took them to the vet and look for people who could adopt them. When I came to the US in 2014 to study I had to leave my cat. Thankfully, my brother brought him with him two years later and he's now living with us. Cats and any pet is family to me, I just can't leave behind my family. I was that little girl who had the vet barbie and wanted to be a vet myself because I love animals so much. 
    Picture
    I have two cats at home, one that we flew all the way from back home and another one we adopted here. I like to believe he chose us because one rainy day he decided to hide in our porch and we welcomed him to our home and it has been almost two years now. I'd love to take care of your cat as well as I take care of mine. ​

    If you live in Queens, Nathalie would be glad to help you with your cat. She provides cat sitting services and in home visits. Contact us with more information about the service you need. We'll be glad to help you.

    ​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!

    ​I've been a huge animal lover my entire life. I grew up with cats and dogs, and I was 5 years old when we adopted our first cat, Tommy. He was an energetic, friendly, gorgeous cat who I was bonded with throughout his entire life. Ever since I got to know Tommy, I knew I was going to be a cat person for good! When I moved out to live on my own, I adopted my best friend, "Twentynine": a sweet, talkative 11-year-old tortie with a big personality. She had been returned to the shelter several times throughout her life because she was very shy and fearful of people and would sometimes lash out if she felt scared, and it took me a while to earn her trust. But with some patience and love, she ended up being the sweetest, friendliest animal I've ever known, and her quirks make me love her even more. Making Twentynine feel safe and loved enough to relax and bond with me has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my lifetime. Our home together is warm and safe, and there's never a dull moment!
    Picture
    ​

    My experience with Twentynine, the cats I grew up with, and all the animals I've worked with in the pet care industry, have taught me so much about patience, compassion, and the practical elements of caring for animals. I'm certified in feline and canine CPR and first aid. When I'm not working with animals, I'm finishing my degree remotely at School of the Art Institute of Chicago, or painting pet portraits. I can't wait to meet your cat!

    If you live in Queens or Northern Brooklyn, Ry, would be glad to help you with your cat. He provides cat sitting services and in home visits. Contact us with more information about the service you need. We'll be glad to help you.

    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!

    When I was about 6, my parents took me to the pet store to get our first cat. I don't really remember who wanted the cat, but I was definitely excited. We got "Princess Spunkerella" that day and I never looked back! I was an only child and it was fun having playmates in the house to occupy my time when I was a kid. A few years later, my school's principal was giving away kittens and, after some begging, we got "Angel"... and then there were 2. Not long after my Dad wanted a few dogs so we now had 2 cats and 2 dogs... and then "Baby" came for my 13th birthday and from then on, we always had 3 cats in the house and 2 dogs... and while I don't have dogs in my little NYC apartment, I still keep the cat count higher than 1. "Rufus" and "Minnie" are my little monster twins (actual litter mates), who couldn't be more different!

    Suzanne and her daughter Dylan are absolutely wonderful. They took great care of Mimi and I could definitely tell that they genuinely love cats. They updated me almost everyday how Mimi's doing, and sent me pictures and videos of her. It was a great experience with them. And I would definitely recommend them if anyone needs a caretaker for their cats.

    ​
    All my life I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for animals, but my true journey with them began in 2008 when I became a veterinary assistant at a hospital in Houston, Texas. One of my daily duties was to clean the cages in the cat room and feed the kitties that were either boarding with us or up for adoption. However there was one particular white and black cat named Abby who had a double heart on her side. One of the technicians rescued her off the streets of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. She found her with her litter of kittens hiding under a car. All of the kittens were adopted out and Abby became the hospital cat.  Everyday I would let her out of her cage and pet her, brush her and give her some TLC. She would show her appreciation by making biscuits on me while purring the entire time. Finally one day I asked if I could foster her which of course turned into me adopting her and from there the rest is history.  Abby is now living a lap of luxury with my mother in NJ.

    Picture
    After moving to NY to further my education, I went on to work in a few different hospitals and clinics where I met countless pet owners and had the opportunity to care for their beloved cat or dog. I have fostered a few kitties along the way and found loving homes for them. I will always treat your kitty like they are my own and I pride myself in being able to think quick on my feet when handling unforeseen circumstances that may arise. Whenever it’s time for me to visit with a furry loved one, I look at our time together as more of a bonding session than just someone there to feed them. All I want to do is make a positive memorable impact on your kitties life so that in return whenever you are away they have me to look forward to.

    “I have been using Amber for several years & my cats love her. She even took care of a health issue while I was away with great success. Currently, she has been good at 
    keeping my cats on their different foods ( one is on renal food) - when they are intent on switching bowls! I love her.“

    Amber was recommended by someone in my Bed Stuy-Clinton Hill network, and she has been great. I worked so hard to find someone who would come to our house to clip my cats' nails and you wouldn't believe how hard it was. 

    It's a silly thing to traumatize the cats for by bringing them to the vet, and yet so few people do house calls anymore. Amber came on time and quickly dispatched of the task.  I don't need a regular cat sitter but if I needed one in a pinch I wouldn't hesitate to call her.“

    Hi there! My name is Sam, and I’m a 21 year old art student living in East Williamsburg. I’ll be going into my fourth year of illustration studies this fall, but will have plenty of time in between to care for cats when the need arises. 

    My parents brought a cat home from the local shelter when I was 4 years old. He was a little gray thing with bright eyes and a vibrant personality. I named him Demon (can’t say I remember my 4-year-old reasoning for that) and I have never been without a cat since. Through the years I’ve had the privilege of caring for many cats, each with their own individual quirks and needs. I’ve also cared for dogs, parrots, and fish! I love all animals and am eager to spend time with them, but I’ve maintained a special fondness for cats. I look forward to meeting many more cats through the course of working as a cat sitter, as well as their amazing owners.

    ​My name is Scarlett and I'm a writer, content creator and cat lover. I grew up with cats but as an adult never really considered getting my own until I began volunteering with Brooklyn Animal Action. While volunteering at my first adoption event I met two crooked-tail cats named Ash and Nova. This chance meeting inevitably led to a #fosterfail and the rest is history! 

    I have experience with cats of all ages and am comfortable giving them medicine, too. As a cat mom I know firsthand how hard it is to leave them at home and how a dedicated, clean, and loving cat sitter can make all the difference. I'm here to be that for you and can't wait to meet your cat!

    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.

    Hi there. I'm a semi-retired media executive who lives by himself in a spacious studio within the newly constructed part of Riverside Center along the Hudson. The apartment is uncluttered and roomy with a nice view of the street. There's a cozy wide window ledge for your cat to gaze from. There are lots of schools in the immediate area and lots of people walking dogs so cats have plenty to look at to pass the time. 
    Before moving to this wonderful space, my family and I had cats for 24 years. In fact, we always had two cats at any given time. I'm very feline-friendly and always enjoyed their companionship and their quirkiness. My work schedule is very flexible and mostly done from home so your cat certainly won't be lonely ... simply well cared for.

    Hi, my name is Katie. I have 2 cats that are brother and sister. I rescued them when they were kittens, 2 baby kittens in a bucket, and they are now 14 years old. They are my babies and I understand the need to have your babies taken care of with love as you would yourself. I am starting to go through the different ailments that senior cats develop. One has asthma and the other has bowel disease and the beginning stages of kidney disease. I've had to change what they eat, how they eat, give them various medications and extra love. I have been a caregiver of cats for most of my life and absolutely love it.

    For over 40 years I have had the wonderful experience of having my loving kitties. I recently had to put my last kitty (Cookie) to sleep, which was extremely detrimental to me as I had her from 4 months to 19 years of age. At this juncture of my life, which includes retirement from The Board of Education of New York,  I would just like to care for other people’s cats since I can’t handle the heartbreak again.

    Hi! My name is Nicole. NYC has been my first ever experience living without an animal in my home, so I've filled that void with cat sitting! Having been a cat mom previously, I can totally relate and understand the level of care you're expecting and hoping for while you're away. Communication, attention to detail, and enthusiasm are at the top of my priority list when spending time with your fur babies. I can appreciate the value in a daily picture or video while you're away, and ease of mind that they're well taken care of.

    I am originally from southern California, and came to NYC 4 years ago after graduating from Hofstra University. By day I am a mechanical engineer in the private sector, and by night I am a horror tv/movie/book enthusiast. Love cooking and entertaining family and friends at home during the winter months and planning beach days in the summer. Look forward to getting to know as well as meeting you and your kitty soon!

    Nicole is amazing! She’s very communicative and always sends me photos of my cat during her visit with a little update on how he’s doing. I can tell she genuinely cares about his well-being and wants to provide high-quality services.

    Branson provides in home boarding services on the Lower East SIde, Manhattan

    Hi! My name is Branson LB, and I've been taking care of cats my whole life.  As a kid, my most beloved cat was an orange tabby named Amber. He was truly a member of the family as he was loving, cuddly, and would even fetch like a dog! Growing up with cats, I came to love cats while also understanding that every cat is different and has a unique personality. Soon after graduating college in Los Angeles, I began to foster and take care of kittens in my apartment, while also finding them each a forever home. Now, living in New York, I have recently begun to regularly cat sit in the city. It has brought me so much joy that I started to want to do it even more. I live in a minimal, modern junior one bedroom in the Lower East Side. It's clean and there is plenty of room for cats to perch, as well as plenty of places to tuck away.

    I've been living in New York for about two and a half years. I previously worked at BuzzFeed as a video producer, and I now work as a freelance videographer and editor. In my free time I enjoy biking around the city, exercising, and reading in the park.

    I hope I have the opportunity to meet you, and take care of your cat!

    Shannon grew up with 12 cats in a small town in Texas. She has always preferred to be surrounded by pets, whether they belong to her clients, friends, or her own fur babies. She is currently humom to a sweet grey tabby cat named Marlow, and a quirky toy australian shepherd dog named Bae Bae. You may recognize her fluffy orange cat, Skitty, in a viral meme from articles in sites such as Bored Panda, Cheezburger, and the Instagram page @cat_shaming. Skitty crossed the rainbow bridge in 2018 at nineteen years old, and is sorely missed. Shannon considers all fur clients her extended family and promises to love and care for them as her own. She has 2.5 years experience in pet care exclusively in the Upper West Side. Shannon works in the entertainment industry as a professional Actor and Cosplayer, and also works as a House Manager at the longest running Off Broadway theatre in the West Village (Cherry Lane Theatre). If you live in the Upper West Side, Shannon is the ideal caregiver for you!

    Shannon was awesome. We got pictures and an update every single day. She even took cute Christmas photos ("Meowy Catmas") which was a wonderful bonus. I would happily recommend her and Kitty in NY to anyone. Thanks so much for taking care of our cats, especially on somewhat short notice for the holidays.

    Miriam and Andy provide in home boarding in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, NY

    Both Andy and I grew up surrounded by cats. Andy (from Philadelphia) is the youngest of 4 siblings and has lived with cats since he was a baby. I grew up with 3 sisters in Norway and had up to 5 cats at a time. We helped care for and clean up after our cats and have fond memories of all of the cats in our lives. Our earlier apartments haven’t been suitable for pets, but one year my roommate had two, and I realized how nice this city can be when you have cats to come home to. After getting married last May we purchased a beautiful pre-war condo apartment in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. The apartment is clean, spacious, and minimal making it a perfect host apartment for kitties. We always spoke about bringing cats into our lives when we get settled. We might get cats of our own down the road, but right now helping out with temporary stays is perfect for us!
    ​
    I’ve been working freelance as a makeup artist for 11 years and moved to NY in 2012. I met Andy at work where he does production and photo. In our free time we enjoy watching a play or a movie, biking around the city, yoga, and have friends over for dinner. 

    We are excited to get to know the cat owners in our new community :) ​

    Miriam & Andy were very welcoming our cat Juno and sent photos and kept us up to speed almost daily. Thats' a great comfort when you leave your cat for 2 weeks and are far away.

    It was clear that Juno was in good hands and she was very relaxed and felt comfortable with them.

    Miriam and Andrew were very welcoming with Finn and did a great job communicating with us throughout his stay.

    ​Miriam and Andrew were attentive to our cat's needs throughout his weekend stay. They emailed us twice with very well written descriptions of the cat's daily activities, as well as a video and photos of our cat to show that he had adjusted well to their place.

    As to communications regarding drop off and pick up, Miriam and Andrew readily available via email to ensure seamless coordination. They provided an accurate and ample window of time for which they would be present, thereby relieving us of any undue stress in the event of city traffic.

    Finally, our cat was content upon his arrival back home, and slept peacefully throughout the evening. Based on this and the above, we recommend Miriam and Andrew for future caregiving services.

    Hello, I'm Sharisse, a tender- hearted, kind, passionate soul who has a soft spot for animals & children. While I love ALL animals, CATS are my FAVORITE. I've always had cats in my home as a child- and, has HAD one for Eleven years as an adult living in my pet friendly apartment. Sharing my space, my time, and my love was very rewarding. It was a Blessing to have had the pleasure of knowing first-hand the true beauty of an animal's unconditional & unwavering love. And, that's why for me cat boarding is perfect, because I get to experience all over again the joy of a loving animal in my care for a length of time. Any time with a cat is PRICELESS!


    I am also a Licensed Family Day Care Provider. I have been caring for children since 1996- to this present time. And, as I have developed great rapports with children & their families, I hope to do the same with you! I am just a caregiver by nature. Whether I'm caring for children or animals, it is my true calling.

    Sharisse was awesome! She wrote down all the instructions to be sure not to miss anything. Every morning and night, she sent me photos and videos of my cat with some text saying exactly what she had done with him and how he was doing. The videos showed her playing with him, brushing him, or him eating. He looked like he was doing really well and having a lot of fun with her, so I wasn't worried about him at all while I was gone! She told me that she really loves cats, which is evident. She bonded with my cat easily and I completely trusted her with him. She was also very flexible and easy to work with.

    Sharisse was excellent! She went above and beyond to make my cat feel at home. In fact, my cat did not want to come home after staying with her!  She made sure to send regular updates with cute pictures to let me know how my cat was doing
    I feel at ease going away knowing my cat will be well taken care of and spoiled with love and affection. I highly recommend her!

    Hello, my name is Coleen and I’m a native New Yorker that always loved animals. My father was a dog trainer so I grew up with a large number of pets…7 dogs and 6 cats. Even though I grew up with dogs, I grew a special bond to cats due to their intelligence, unique personalities and special healing properties. I love spending time with cats and have over 30 years of experience when it comes to caring for them from the domestic house cat to the extremely talkative Siamese. My apartment is large with enough room for them to roam around and enough windows to sunbathe all day.

    My whole life I wanted cats but could never have any due to a parent’s allergies. Fortunately, New York City is full of cat lovers, and growing up in Manhattan, I was able to make cats a part of my life by cat-sitting for friends. I have seen friends’ cats grow from kittenhood to old age. Besides cat sitting for friends, I’ve been a dog walker and volunteered at animal rescue organizations, including a cat cafe where I socialized kittens for adoption. I’ve gotten to know cats with a variety of personalities, abilities, and ages, and am continuing to learn about cat behavior. I respect each cat’s way of communicating, and let them come to me on their terms.

    I’m a native New Yorker. I studied film at Hunter College and am pursuing a career in animation.

    Beatrice is caring and meticulous. She always visited the cats and updated me on time. In times of little accidents caused by the cats, Beatrice was able to respond adaptively, efficiently and effectively. She also worked with the notes I left her in mind. I am very satisfied with Beatrice's service.

    Beatrice was very nice and clearly a cat lover so I felt very safe leaving my Bean under her care. Her updates were detailed and I could tell that she has experience looking after cats.
