Cat skills

Oral medication administration

Safety, trust & environment

I will be happy to come visit your cat(s) in your home. Your cat will continue to feel secure and comfortable in their own space. I'll drop by to serve their meals, refresh their litter box, administer medication if necessary, and offer lots of playing, cuddling, and company! I often carry my own cat's mouse-shaped laser pointer in my purse to keep life exciting!

Information Nicole M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your cat has any special needs or medical or behavioral concerns. There is no such thing as too much detail in your pet's care instructions!

A typical day

I love to give your cat the attention or the space that they need. If they're a cuddler I'll spend most of the visit petting or brushing them. I always like to get in a little playtime too, so please let me know what their favorite toys are!

Sunnyside Cats 🌞😸

Cat care experience

Hi! My name is Nikki, and I'm an artist and lifelong cat-lover 🐈🐈‍⬛️❤️. I have my Master's Degree in Fine Arts and a studio in Long Island City where I paint. I live in Sunnyside. I previously worked for a high-end private cat-sitting company in the Upper East Side (for nearly 5 years!), so I have plenty of experience with all kinds of kitties! My philosophy is that every cat is a perfect cat and a wonderful friend -with some it just takes time.

Nicole is like the Cat Whisperer. I watched immediately connect with my cat. She responds quickly and always on time. My first time leaving my pet with a stranger and what a relief it was.

Nikki is the best cat sitter! She leaves detailed notes on Monkey, my cat. She gives her lots of laser play time and somehow always leaves my kitchen cleaner than before. She is very responsible and communicative. I highly recommend Nikki.
