Hey there! I'm Morgan, a lifelong cat fan who's always had a kitty or two (or three!) purring around the house. Last year, I had to say goodbye to my fur-buddy of 13 years. I'm not quite ready to dive into cat ownership again, but I'm missing some feline friendship. That's where cat-sitting comes in! I love popping in to see cats who already have awesome homes and giving them some extra love and care. I've got a knack for the not-so-fun stuff too, like giving pills and fluids, and promise to make it as stress-free as possible – for both of you! Can't wait to meet your cat pals and share some cuddles and playtime.

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! Nice to meet you! I'm a Brooklyn native and lover of all animals. I've lived with animals my whole life--dogs, cats, reptiles--I've also served as a foster and I often help friends with their pets. I'm reliable, consistent, trustworthy, communicative, think quickly and work adaptively. I love getting to know a new cat, learning about their personality and having the opportunity to bond with them. I'm not able to take on being a pet-parent at this time, so being a cat-boarder is so meaningful for me as an opportunity to connect with lovely creatures and support their family! I live alone in a one-bedroom apartment that has a lot of space for your cats to play or lounge in. I'm looking forward to working with you and getting to know your cats! If you are located in the northern part of Manhattan and need to leave the city for a few weeks, Jenni could be available and welcome your cat/s. You would receive periodic updates. Contact us and send more details about the service you need, we'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Even upon first introductions, we felt comfortable and could trust in her experience with caring for cats and providing a comfortable and stimulating home environment. We very much appreciated Jenni's regular updates with photos/videos, as well as her proactive communication in flagging potential issues (which were not issues at all, but we were thankful for her thoughtfulness). We would love to work with Jenni again in the future and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others! Stephanie - by survey 07/18/2023 * * * * * Jenni was incredible.

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.

He is really wonderful. I would love to have him every time we go out of time! Sally - follow up survey 12/26/2023 * * * * * Oscar was FABULOUS. He was kind, attentive, and responsive.

Jessie - follow up survey 01/10/2022 * * * * * Oscar went above & beyond a regular cat sitter - he sent beautiful photos and updates about how my cat was doing everyday while I was away. I didn't want to bother him by bombarding him with questions everyday, and yet he was happily giving me updates whether or not I asked. He showed genuine care and affection towards my cat and I couldn't have asked or entrusted anyone better while I was away. I would ask Oscar to catsit for me again in a heartbeat. Jake - follow up survey 12/27/2021 * * * * * Oscar was amazing. He took great care of our cat (both in terms of feeding her and playing with her) and took beautiful photos of her too.

Every photo he sends has perfect lighting and captures my cats in a great pose. Artwork really.

Casey - follow up survey * * * * * Booking the service, the initial "meet-and-greet", to the daily updates. We never had to worry if our cat was happy and well-taken for. Oscar's attention to detail and sweet updates made being away from our fur baby that much easier! Jeremy Y. - review * * * * * Oscar took care of my cat for a little less than a week. I have zero complaints...everything went smoothly and Oscar followed all of my written instructions (which weren't too intricate - fortunately, I don't have a high maintenance cat). He also took amazing photos of Asher in action during their daily playtime! I would definitely use them again and highly recommend others to as well! Aaron S.- review * * * * * Kitty in NY and our cat sitter Oscar are life-savers! Oscar cared for our cat as if it was his own, petting, playing, feeding and loving her every single day that we were out of town on vacation. What's more, he sent amazing pictures and status updates of our kitty each day! Can't recommend him and the company highly enough - thank you Oscar and kitty in NY!!! Inara N.- review * * * * * 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 ! YiLing - follow up survey * * * * * 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! Rosemarie - follow up survey * * * * * Oscar was beyond amazing. Extremely caring, responsible and knowledgeable. Also left the space spotless! I also got sms with pictures twice a day! Naz - follow up survey * * * * * 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! Christi - follow up survey * * * * * Seems like Oscar took great care of Sager. Sent me very personalized daily updated which really set my mind at ease. Kimberly and Timothy - follow up survey * * * * * 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. Hannah - follow up survey * * * * * Oscar was so nice and great at giving me updates all weekend! Jeff - follow up survey * * * * * Oscar sent us updates with pictures of our cat everyday around the same time. I was never worried about my cats the whole trip.

I even accidentally locked her out, and she informed me immediately and worked with me to get access to my apartment so that she could take care of Oliver (oops!). I told Marie that she didn't need to scoop the litter daily really, but Marie did because she clearly cared about how Oliver was doing! She sent me very cute videos and clearly took care of my old guy. And she even brought up the dry cleaning the doorman handed her (!! definitely not intended). Couldn't recommend Marie more, she's fantastic :) 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 consider myself a Cat Mom. When I was five I gave up on dolls when my parents gave me my first cat and I named her Marbles. I had her until the year I graduated high school. While Marbles will always hold a special place in my heart, I learned that I could love other cats. When I married John, I learned that he loved cats too. We had Fellini for over twelve years. When Fellini passed we were devastated. The only comfort for us came when we adopted two rescues Leo and Lucy. They filled our apartment with joy. Last year, Lucia passed at age 15 and Leo at age 18. They were our kids. We loved watching TV with them by our side, giving Leo his morning brush and playing with them way past our bed-time. While we know we can never replace them, we welcome house cats that need love when their family is away. We understand that each cat is unique and we follow all directions given by the cat’s family. It was always hard for John and I to leave our cats for a trip. We hope we can make people feel at ease knowing their cats will be loved and taken care of. Theresa - I have been in education for over 30 years, first as a classroom teacher and later as an Assistant Principal in a New York City public school.

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! Hi, I'm Erin, & I'm a huge cat fan! I've been lucky enough to spend more than 4 decades loving & being loved by cats in my home -- so much so that my family has joked for years that we run an old cats' home. Because with us, life is so good, they just want to live forever...14 is "young" in my book! My husband & I live in North Brooklyn with Tuna (The Big Tuna) & Mayo (The Lady McMayonnaise), who we adopted in 2015 & 2016, respectively. We don't consider ourselves cat "owners," but cat "concierges," because really? They own us. We're here to put food in bowls, make the laser dot dance, & provide the comfiest of laps for naps & chin scratchies. I speak fluent scaredy cat, especially since Mayo was rescued from the rough streets of Brooklyn, & I can easily de-escalate aggression, as Tuna's native language was hissing. I'm highly skilled at lasers, cat dancers, & fishing lines, & I'm basically certified at disseminating treats. And 2 of my great life-with-cats accomplishments are teaching a former cat boss to use the toilet, and teaching Tuna how to "speak" to us, by pressing buttons. Because if you're willing to listen, every cat will tell you what they want. That's why I approach every cat I meet with patience, empathy...& song. When you leave the city for a few days, cat sitting visits is the best solution. The caregiver will come to your apartment and make sure your kitty has fresh food and water, clean bowls and litter and spend time with her/him. You will receive an update after every visit. Contact us and send more details about your cat/s and the service you need, we'll be glad to help you find the best solution for your beloved feline/s.
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! A native of Romania, I lived in Belgium for a number of years before coming to the US. I now very much enjoy life in New York City, and this is home. As a licensed Real Estate professional I often work from home, and have a flexible schedule. My one bedroom apartment, located in East Harlem (111th Street), has the space and ambience for your kitty to play. Since I have a backyard with trees your kitty can enjoy watching the birds and squirrels from the window. Presley was 7 year old when he adopted me. He was chuck-full of personality. When I sat in a chair he’d jump in my lap. He constantly followed me around the house, slept in bed with me, and showed his discontent when I was going out. A very playful fellow he loved having his belly rubbed. He lived to be 14 years old and I miss him to this day. My friend has a new kitty, just 6 months old. She gets very excited when I visit, jumps around and plays with everything that moves, chews on my fingers…ah, so adorable. Laura provides cat sitting visits in the Upper East Side and East Harlem.

____________________________________________________ REVIEWS Meng - by survey 12/12/2023 * * * * * Great communication prior to setting up the visits. Laura was very attentive to our cat and took great care of her. Wassila - by survey 09/03/2022 * * * * * Laura LOVES cats and took really good care of our cat Obi. She didn't simply feed him, change his water and cleaned his litter. We were away for 2 weeks and Laura sent us daily updates with pics and videos of Obi playing with her, or doing the cat's thing; hanging out oblivious to human presence:) He obviously was in good hands. Laura understood Obi's routine immediately and went along with it . First eat, then play, then hang out, then little trip to the kitchen to check if by any miracle there was more food:) I highly recommend Laura. She will take good care of your furry friend.
