They were very loving towards my cat, sent great pictures and detailed updates. Took very good care of my cat-son while I was away for both times I’ve used the service.

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!

​​In 2004, I officially became a "cat person" when my wife (Monique) and I got together.  Along with Monique, two sweet cats named Felix and Milo came into my life.  I remember sitting on Monique's couch early in our dating, and Milo jumped up on my lap.  That one sweet act hooked me!  Felix and Milo were the best of buddies and gave us so much joy for years until they both passed in 2013.  They were the same age.  Within a year, we had adopted two new boys - Hershey and Nugget.  Hershey is a beautiful Bombay black cat, and Nugget is a handsome brown tabby.  At only four years old each, we are treated every day to the energy and entertainment that young cats bring.  Just yesterday, there was a squirrel on our terrace, and Hershey and Nugget were transfixed on the squirrel and talking up a storm, as if the squirrel was hearing every word they said!

My many years of caring for Felix, Milo, Hershey and Nugget have taught me exactly what cats need.  Not only food, water and litter needs, but love, affection and play needs.  I will bring this knowledge and care with great pride to looking after your cat(s).  When not cat-sitting, I am a professional musician (a trombone player) who primarily plays Broadway shows, including Ain't Too Proud, The Cher Show, and King Kong, among others, as well as the Radio City Christmas Spectacular.  I am also a very avid Mets fan.

I’m a true cat lover. When I grew up, my family always had cats in the house. At one point, we had a male and two females and both had litters at the same time, so for a while there were 12 cats in the house! One of those kittens joined the family and lived to be over 20 years old! 

I am a painter, puppet maker, and union film and stage performer. I’m also a licensed NYC tour guide. I worked on boats giving whale watch tours off the coast of New England for five years as the onboard narrator/naturalist. Lately I have been doing film writing, so I am frequently at home. I have lived in the same apartment in the East Village for nearly 40 years. My old cat passed a few years ago, and I began taking care of cats with Kitty in NY. I have a regular cat boarder who stays with me every month, and a few regular cats that I visit. I am caring and responsible, and will enjoy spending time with, and getting to know your cat. After each visit, I always send a text or email with photos and a full report. You can be confident that your cat will get full attention and care!

If you live in the East Village, Elliot will be delighted to take care of your cat.  Kitty in NY will help you find the best caregiver for in home boarding or cat sitting services.  Contact us and send more details about your cat and we will be happy to help you.

​When I was four, a stray cat (which my brother was secretly feeding) ran into my house and birthed three kittens. We weren’t a pet family at that time and my parents only had childhood experiences of raising dogs. 

We became pet/cat people overnight. 

Of that litter, one survived for 20 beautiful years. Chichi and I grew up together. Because of her, I’ve always been able to connect with cats — even ‘tough’ cats or strays. She wasn’t the only cat I raised; we came to own two other cats in her lifetime. The three cats couldn’t be more different, and yet, my relationship with each was special. Eventually, they all passed and I wasn’t sure I’d jump back into owning a cat because I was afraid I’d never find cats as great. I was so wrong.

Four years ago I adopted a 6 y.o. tuxedo cat with arthritis. He came from a hoarder home and was extremely skittish with people. I have never had to work so hard to ‘normalize’ a cat, but Figgy and I have made strides. Due to his arthritis, Fig is on a strict diet and is medicated daily. I intimately understand the importance of adhering to diets/medication routines because his comfort depends on it.  ​

I’m very good at meeting cats where they are. Figaro has taught me that some cats really operate at their own pace and can’t always be bribed. I’m comfortable with keeping my distance from a cat who wants that and also giving a kitty all of the loving it demands of me. I work as a graphic designer in FiDi and live in Harlem. Happy to visit with any kitties along the 2/3 line :)

3 years ago, on a rainy August evening in Miami, as I was walking up to my apartment, I suddenly encountered the love of my life. Off to the side of the path, there was a little gray and brown striped cat, wet and shivering. I stopped right where I stood, heart in my throat, and she ran right up to me. She weaved between my legs a bit before plopping herself right on my sneakered feet. I squealed (as quietly as I could) with delight: just 2 nights before, I had proclaimed to my roommate that we would be getting a cat. We had already began to rearrange our furniture, effectively baby- (or kitty-)proofing the space; we bought oodles of wet food, a comfy bed, a carrier, and tons of toys. We had no idea that 2 days later, we would be welcoming this small furry ball of energy, who came to be called Tootsie, into our home. I am so glad she did! 

My name is Gari and I am a woman of many talents. I am originally from NYC. I'm a Prep for Prep, Sacred Heart ('12), Wesleyan ('16), and AmeriCorps/City Year ('17, '18) alumna. I've lived in Miami (and briefly in Maryland) for the past 2 years. I came back to the Big Apple at the end of 2018 (for those keeping track: since moving back to NYC, Tootsie is currently living with my cousin and I visit her every other weekend). In addition to loving up on and caring for cats, a large portion of my time goes towards building my healing & coaching business, where I work to create spaces for folx to explore & better understand themselves, their feelings, and their purpose. When I'm not doing that, you can catch me cleaning/KonMari-ing people's homes, reading something about consciousness, drawing in my notebook, or working on any one of my numerous passion projects!

Karina is a dancer and life long cat lover. She lives in a studio apartment located on W. 71st. She has always been surrounded by pets and will love taking care of yours now that she doesn't have any cats of her own.

I love the arts and am involved in the dance world. I enjoy the theatre, love going to performances and love music. I live on the UWS.  I grew up with a parent who wasn't allowed to have pets growing up which meant, I was a great benefactor of a situation in which I grew up with a lot of pets. Many rescues....I remember as a child spending a lot of time taking care of a wide variety of animals. horses, dogs, cats, a few fish, a goat, a family of hamsters, finches and parakeets. I learned so much about people as well as them.  I have a lot of love to give and I'm great with pets...I love taking care of cats now.

Ann came by for an in person meet and walk through of our apartment before we left to pick up the keys and meet the cats. She was both professional and friendly and made us feel comfortable immediately. While we were away, Ann came by and played with the cats, fed them, cleaned their litter, and made them feel loved, twice a day! She even sent us pictures every time.

Tabish is a world traveler who has lived abroad and now resides in a charming one bedroom townhouse on the upper west side of Manhattan. 

Growing up in Kenya, I was surrounded by wildlife. One of my earliest memories as
a child of 4 or 5 years of age is watching a lion cub, the cutest thing I’d ever seen. I
wanted to take it home, but my dad said I could have a kitten instead that was just as
cute and from the same family. The rest, as they say is my cat history.
I have worked in the humanitarian sector in Europe, Africa, and Asia, using my
fluency in English, Swahili, Punjabi and Urdu.

My other passion had always been for fashion. I studied towards a M.A at Central St Martins, London, which opened up opportunities to work with artisans in Kenya, Gambia and Nepal to create artisanal jewelry and textile collections. It also enhanced my inherent talent for fashion styling. My motto is, Wear Color Every Day.

Tabish provides both services: in-home boarding and cat sitting visits. If you decide to board your cat, your kitty will have plenty of room to roam and play in this book filled and antique furnished home. Tabish works from home, adores cats, and has cared for many. Tabish will enjoy visiting your cat/s in your apartment and will send an update after every visit.  She cherishes their affectionate nature and is looking forward to getting to know your darling!​

​​When it comes the feline species, I am a natural!  I love cats and have a relaxed, and perhaps intuitive, relationship with them.  I've adopted many cats over the years, the most difficult of which was inherited when I moved into a friend's vacated apartment.  The cat wouldn't come near me nor anyone, as it had been abused. It stayed in the backyard and I had to put its food on the stoop outside.  Any attempt to pet or go near it meant hissing and scratching. I slowly nurtured it and within 3 months, this cat was sleeping peacefully on my bed!  Since getting my first apartment in college, I have had cats, so I have literally a lifetime of owning or caring for cats - life is just better with them in it.  I have plenty of experience caring for other people's cats - both in my and their home. I never feel a cat is a stranger, and I am confident when they meet me they know they are in the company of a kindred spirit.

​Maureen is a freelancer who lives and works in Manhattan, spending most of her time on the lower and upper west side. Maureen's been a cat lover all her life, so when her own cat passed after a happy and long existence, she decided to become a caregiver for others and began boarding cats with Kitty in New York. Maureen loved the experience of welcoming her new friends to her home and taking photos to share with their parents. Maureen ended up adopting her own cat (a gorgeous Silver Egyptian Mau called Luna) so she started to visit our client's cats in their apartments. If you ask for Maureen, your cat/s will be in very good hands.

If you need a cat sitting service for your cat/s and happen to live on the West side of Manhattan please contact us and mention Maureen. She will be glad to meet you and your cat.

Maureen is always friendly, easy to communicate with and easy to arrange the sitting with. We always come home to 2 happy cats.

Maureen was so thoughtful and thorough.  I got lots of pictures and updates about how the cats were doing, which I loves, and she seemed to adore them, which was great to hear!

Maureen was wonderful. She was extremely communicative and sent photos with every visit. It was clear from the pictures that our cat Penny was getting plenty of love and attention.

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 daily updates and pictures and she did am 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 responses 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!

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.

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, and kept me up to speed with photos and updates. It really put me at ease that my little guy was in good hands.

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!  It was great to know that he was comfortable and well taken care of while we were away.  I will definitely be requesting Maureen in the future!

Maureen was awesome - could tell right away that she's the type of person who forms a good rapport with animals, so made me feel very comfortable leaving my cat behind. Throughout my time away, Maureen sent lots of pics each day, so I knew my cat was having a good time too

He is very reliable and easygoing and went above and beyond when we had some travel issues and needed to be let in to our apartment. Plus, he always sends pictures!

Kitty in NY helps you find cat sitting and in-home boarding services. In-home boarding is a great option for mid/long term. You bring your cat to the caregiver's apartment where he/she will be the only pet. You will receive periodic updates during the boarding.

Danielle: In my life I have owned 3 cats (2 at a time). One of my cats was diabetic, so I have experience with giving insulin shots and caring for cats with special medical needs. I live with my boyfriend, who has also owned cats in the past.
​I am a doctor podiatrist, I have experience with giving injections, pills and IVs in humans, and injections in cats.

​Marshall: I am a financial editor living in Boerum Hill, working in the FiDi. I live with my wonderful girlfriend, Danielle, who introduced me to the Kitty in NY service when she asked if I wanted to board cats in our apartment. Being a cat lover I immediately agreed, and we’ve hosted many excellent kitty guests since. Expanding into the caregiving role simply increases the opportunities I have to make more feline friends. I grew up in rural upstate NY and had many different pets growing up: dogs, cats, chickens, horses and once a very irritable goat. Cats have always been my favorite, as they are by far the most interesting (sometimes maddening). I am experienced in handling the diverse personalities of cats and can recognize when your cat wants to play and when they just want me to leave them alone. I enjoy sending fun updates to my client’s owners and will, if allowed, inundate you with pics of your pets being thoroughly spoiled while you’re away.

If you live in northern Brooklyn or in the FiDi, Danielle and Marshall could be available to visit your cat/s in your apartment until you return. Our cat sitting service makes it easy to leave the city for a few days. You will receive updates after each visit. Contact us and send more details about your cats and the service you need.

Lots of pictures and updates after each visit via whatsapp which was highly appreciated.
There was a slight misunderstanding about the final visit date but our caregiver was prompt to reimburse us.

Marshall was fantastic. He met with me before I left to meet my cat and hear about his needs. He sent me great updates and pictures while I was away. He listened to my concerns and made sure to address them in his updates. I felt very comfortable knowing he was looking after my cat. I would definitely use him and this service again.

Marshall was absolutely wonderful!! I can't say enough good things about him. He checked in every day with photographs and a brief assessment of his interactions with my cats. They were extremely comfortable with him (even the one who doesn't like strangers!). Marshall definitely made my holiday travels less stressful since I new my cats were in such great hands. THANK YOU AGAIN!

The caregiver was prompt at responding to my messages and setting up a time to meet and get keys, which was helpful since it was last-minute. She sent lots of photos every day she was there with my cat, with details about how he was doing. I really appreciated her kindness and communicativeness. And I think my cat really liked her!

Carmen was great with my kitties and went the extra mile when their feeders got jammed. I definitely would recommend her to a friend!

She took her job very seriously and seemed to enjoy it. My cat was happy and content and well-fed upon my return. The daily pictures were wonderful to see. It eased my mind when I was able to see my cat seemingly lovingly interacting with Carmen. I told her my cat is going to miss her more than she missed me!

I needed to board my cat last minute over the holidays and Carmen and her family were so accomodating and flexible withy schedule. She was very communicative and took such good care of my cat! 

Sulochana

Carmen was amazing with our shy boy, Pookie. During the meet and greet, Carmen immediately brought Pookie out of his shell, and (as was proven by video evidence from one of her daily text communications with us) she was even able to get in some petting while we were gone. (I think that was a FIRST in the six years we've had him--most of our cat-sitters don't even *see* Pookie when they come over!) In short, Carmen's gentle and patient manner as well as her obvious love of animals makes her a true cat whisperer. We can't recommend her highly enough!

My cat sitter fell through last minute for the holidays and I am so happy to have met Carmen and her family. They were so accommodating and friendly from the moment I spoke to them on the phone and I was relieved to have met a family with so much love and knowledge for cats. They were also very flexible with my schedule for drop off and pick up. My cat Apollo was a little scared and anxious on the ride up to her apartment since it was his first time being outside of our home but Carmen made sure he was comfortable and he settled right in. She communicated with me everyday while I was away and sent me pictures and videos, I could tell my cat was happy to be there. I would recommend Carmen to any cat owner, she is my #1 go-to!

I love KITTY IN NY! Carmen and her family were absolutely wonderful to our cat, Jay! I cannot recommend her services enough! In the beginning, I was completly apprehensive to leave my cat with a family that I didn't know, but after we arranged a meet and greet, I immediately knew that our cat would be in great hands. They are such a sweet and caring family who have tons of experience with cats. Jay immediately felt at ease when he entered their house, and made himself at home on their couch. The day of our vacation, I got a bit emotional, but they reassured me he would be in good hands. And sure enough -- he was! They sent me pictures and videos of him happy and sleeping in their bed. He was receiving plenty of affection and cuddles and appeared very happy and well taken care of. The best part of our vacation was after a long day of activities, we would come back to our hotel and turn on our wifi to receieve tons of videos and pics of him enjoying his stay! I would highly recommend Carmen and her family for your cat's stay. Thanks so much!

We love Carmen and her family! They're extremely thorough in understanding our cat's needs, and friendly as well. We feel so at ease knowing our cat is in their care, and they send us photo updates quite often while he's with them. Their kids are such a treat for our young cat to play with, and we know he's always a little bummed to come back home. We'd recommend Carmen to everyone!

Carmen was a wonderful caregiver. As soon as I met her, I knew my cat would be in good hands while I was out of town. Carmen is responsible and caring. I will definitely ask her to take care of my cat again.

Carmen and her lovely family took excellent care of our very active/playful cat. We received daily updates with pictures and videos, and arranging drop off and pick up was flexible and straightforward. Would definitely use her services again!
