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 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 :)

Erika was fantastic. She kept me constant updated with photos and videos, and watched over all Jozi;’s needs while I was away. I was very satisfied and will use her again. I highly recommend.

Erica did a wonderful job. She kept me constantly updated with photos and videos. She kept an eye on Jozi’s food, water and litter and even brought in my packages that were at my door. I am very satisfied.

Erika is amazing! She sent me photos/ videos everyday. She was communicative and I could tell the kitties were well loved while we were gone. It puts my mind at ease to know if we need to go out of town for any reason our kitties will be well taken care of if not by Erika by someone else from this amazing service! Thank you!!

Erika might have been the best cat sitter we've had yet. I mean I've been happy with all of them, but she really played with the cats lots and they looked so happy in the pictures she sent us.

Erika was fantastic! She was attentive, communicative and really seemed to like our weird cats. She asked great questions and went above and beyond to make sure the cats were okay. Would definitely request her again for our next trip!

Erika was wonderful with my cat. She sent pictures and videos and it took her no time to make friends with Rosie who can be fairly standoffish. I hope she will be available next time I need a cat caretaker.
