Learn More About Aneisa

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I was a cat sitter for a year from 2019-2020. I really enjoyed my time as a cat sitter.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I really enjoy getting to meet new cats. If I had it my way, I would have more than just one, but since I know that I can't do that- I am happy to get to know new cat parents and their furry family members

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I cat sat for an orange tabby and she was delightful. She was a major people cat and whenever I walked in she was very vocal and affectionate. She wouldn't stop until I sat down so that she could sit on my lap and make biscuits on my leg! I always enjoyed getting to see her!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have one cat named Winona. She is a American Shorthair. We got her on December 19th 2020. She has added so much to our home and I honestly don't like to think about life before her.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

If you can, try to be as clear about instructions and details as possible that way your furry friend will receive the best care and you will be at ease knowing that they are well taken care of.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I like to set up a meet and greet. It can be virtual or in person. This way I can get a sense of the cat parent and get the directions/instructions verbally first. Then I like to ask any and all questions and request that the directions/ instructions be written down for me that way both me and the cat parent are clear on the expectations set for the duration of the sitter reservation.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I like to keep the home neat so that there isn't any excess clutter for the cat to get into or hide in. I also like to make sure that the food area and litter area are clean. I always think this way- if someone gave me food in a dirty bowl would I want to eat it? Would I want to go to the bathroom in an unclean place? If I know I wouldn't then I don't want a cat to have to deal with that either.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes I am available for most holidays. If plans do arise it would normally be around Christmas but I will update my calendar either way to alert cat parents if I am available or not.

What is your favorite cat toy?

While each cat has their own preference- I have found that toys that mimic flying are a particular favorite so I would say that is my favorite toy

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

Space is going to be our friend in this situation. They probably feel nervous because I am a new person so in this case, I like to provide space and allow them to approach me. If I can, I try to coax them out with treats, but I don't try to make them eat from my hand as I know that can feel intrusive. Once they have given me the sniff of approval I will pet them however, I will still allow them to set the pace.

I would absolutely book with Aneisa again and again! She provided thoughtful, detailed updates after every visit and made sure my cat had everything he needed, from cuddles to playtime. My cat throughly enjoyed her company. Her care and attention gave me complete peace of mind.

Aneisa did a wonderful job. When she came over for the pre-trip visit, she took detailed notes and asked good questions (things I would've forgotten to mention!). Her updates were prompt and thorough and the cats were well taken care of. I'd absolutely hire her again.

This was our first time using a cat sitter and Aneisa was fantastic with our cats while we were away. She charmed them both, even our shy guy. She also went above and beyond providing video updates and cleaning up after them. We will definitely book her again in the future. Thank you, Aneisa!

I'll definitely be booking with Aneisa again! Our kitty, Edith, can be a little shy and sassy at first and definitely takes awhile to warm up. I could tell that Aneisa handled her well and with compassion. She sent video updates and details after each visit that made me feel confident my baby girl was in good hands!

This is our second time having Aneisa watch our 2 cats, and we will continue to ask her! Great update pictures, lots of pets, and special attention to weird preferences our kitties have. The cats also managed to break a plant pot, which she swept up and made sure they didn’t get hurt on.

Anesia was impressive and on-it in every way, from coming over to get instructions and meet our cat, then touching base before we went on our trip. She was great with our little one; he took to her right away. She kept informed with updates and photos, which we enjoyed seeing how happy our cat was with Anesia's company and care.

Aneisa was amazing! My cat, Archie, is very difficult because she was adopted from a shelter and sadly abused so she is not very trusting. But Aneisa was able to check on her, keep her feed and hydrated, and play with Archie when Archie would let her. She sent great videos and updates and cured my anxiety about leaving Archie alone.

Aneisa was great, she sent detailed notes and photos from each visit. Both of our cats are shy but neither ran away from her, Stevie even let her pet her and Shadow, who normally hides, just stayed in place when she was over. Aneisa made them both feel comfortable and knew their boundaries. Aneisa took detailed notes at our meet and greet and attended to everything we discussed and we knew our babies were in good hands so we could relax and enjoy our trip. Thanks Aneisa!

Frequently Asked Questions

Chicago cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in your sitter before you leave.

Cats are territorial animals and don't do well in new environments. The presence of other cats, dogs, and even birds in kennels or animal hotels cause an immense amount of stress for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
