Learn More About Anna

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

I have been caring for cats for many years, including my own cat Yasha. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, playtime, litter care, and making sure each cat feels calm and safe in their own home.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I truly enjoy spending quiet time with cats and getting to know their unique personalities. Every cat is different - some love to play, some prefer gentle company, and some just enjoy a calm presence nearby. It makes me happy to help cats feel relaxed and cared for while their humans are away.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

My favorite moments are when shy cats slowly start trusting me. At first they watch from a distance, and after a few visits they come closer for pets or sit nearby. It’s always special to see a cat feel comfortable and relaxed

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have a cat named Yasha. He is a big part of my life and my family. Living with Yasha has helped me understand cat behavior, routines, and how important it is for cats to feel safe and comfortable in their own home.

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

Choose someone who takes time to understand your cat’s personality and routine. Every cat is different, and a good sitter respects their space, keeps their routine consistent, and makes sure they feel calm and safe while you’re away

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

I start by learning about the cat’s routine, feeding schedule, favorite toys, and personality. During visits I make sure they are fed, their litter box is clean, and they get attention, playtime, or quiet company depending on what they prefer

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

I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and keep the home secure during every visit. I check doors and windows, make sure the cat is safe and comfortable, and send updates so the owner knows everything is going well

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I try to be available during holidays since that’s when many cat parents travel. I keep my calendar updated so owners can easily see when I’m available.

What is your favorite cat toy?

My cat Yasha’s favorite toy is simple white sheets of paper. He loves them even more than boxes. I also enjoy interactive toys like feather wands that encourage cats to play and stay active

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

I always move slowly and give cats time to feel comfortable. I never force interaction. I speak softly, keep a calm presence, and let the cat approach me when they feel ready. Many shy cats start to trust you when they realize you respect their space and routine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Chicago cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
