Learn More About Antonie

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

I've been a cat sitter since July 2022, since then I have done over 100 sits with several repeat clients. My experience with cats is about 16 years with the cats that came with my marriage, my wife had 2 cats. My main cat experience is from working at the shelters where I have been volunteering since June 2021 and worked with every type of cat from the friendly ones to the ones I'm more attracted to the shy, fearful and not so friendly cats. At the moment I'm in the process of becoming a certified cat trainer and eventually want to become a certified cat behaviorist.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

THE CATS, getting to know them and getting to know their quirks what do they love, how can I make their time without their family a good time.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 5 cats. Lovey, 17 yr old diluted tortie, F. She's a rescue from BARCS where I adopted her in August of 2021. Smokey and Bandit, 13 year Olds, brother and sister. Smokey is a grey tuxedo and bandit is a brown tabby. Got them as kittensnfrom a house where bandit almost got flushed down the toilet. Garfield, around 11yrs old. Came to us January 18th after being a stray outside our house for almost a year. It was cold and he needed to come in he's opening more and more each day. Floki, our little 1,5 year old mischievous tabby. A bundle of energy we adopted in Dec 2022 after foster fail

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

Make sure during the meet&greet that you click with the sitter. If it doesn't feel right don't hire them.

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

New clients i try to set up a meet & greet whenever its convenient for the cat parent. I go to the meet & greet with my notebook and take notes, that are important things for me to remember. During the meet & greet i also talk about my volunteering and i try to interact with the kitties, if they shy i leave it up to the kitties, if they want we can interact if not that's fine too.

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

i always make sure i lock the door behind me and check that the door locked. If any cabinets are opened i close them. In the end you can be as cautious as you want, but you can never 100% guarantee any of it as you are only there for a small part of the day.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, im available during holidays. I have a rule where if im not available repeat clients can contact me to see if i can fit them in. This way i can control how many visits i have during these busy times, without dissapointing my repeat clients. For example this last christmas i had days with 8 visits, i locked them when i had about 5 visits, so i could control the rest of the sits, without getting overbooked, or having to decline bookings.

What is your favorite cat toy?

The 1 your cat wants to play with. The cat sits aren't about me, they are about the cats, so what i like isn't important, its what the cat likes that is. I often bring toys with me on sits, especially when the cats aren't really forthcoming.

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

I give every cat their space. If they want to come out GREAT !! If not that's okay too. I make sure that food has been eaten, the litterbox has been used. If that's happened then i know the cat is okay. If this ain't the case then it's time to reach out to the cat parents and possibly ask for favorite hiding spots, just to make sure the cats are okay.

Ad always, Antonie was conscientious and kind. He clearly cares about the cats he is caring for and is wonderful about keeping me updated. When he comes for a meet and greet, he asks good questions, making sure that all areas of the cats’ care are addressed. I only gave him 5 stars because giving him more wasn’t an option!

Antonie goes so far above and beyond to keep my kitties happy and well cared for.

With Antonie, I can always feel at ease knowing my two cats are safe and happy. 100% recommend!

We use Antonie regularly. He is great with our cat Howard, who is not the best people person, and a challenge. His patience with Howard, super attentive to his day to day moods and sends photos from every visit. Antonie is quick to respond to requests and questions. Highly recommend him!

Once again we are so happy we had the opportunity to work with Antonie! We had to leave our boy, Mookie, for about 13 days and we were able to do this without any worries as we knew he was in great hands. As always, Antonie went above and beyond sending us updates, pictures, and videos of Mookie each time he saw him. We are so grateful we are able to travel without any worries and highly recommend anyone going out of town to contact Antonie. We look forward to working with Antonie again in the future. ~Micah, McKenzie, and Mr. Mookie Roo

Antonie is a great cat sitter and we highly recommend him! His passion for cats really shines through the work that he does. We have a cat with special medication needs and Antonie was willing to take on the challenge. He is a quick learner, great communicator, and is very accommodating. We trusted him with our cat and have no doubts he will provide exceptional service and care to other cats. He will also take great photos and videos of your cat. We will definitely hire him again for future sitter needs :)

Antonie is terrific with our cat. Howard is not the friendliest with strangers, but Antonie's patience, and experience with cats, has had a great positive effect. He is very attuned to Howard's normal habits, and alters the visit as needed. We receive several photos of Howard after each visit, with updates on his mood, food intake, etc. Antonie is quick to respond, and has been flexible for us when needed. We highly recommend him, and cannot imagine anyone else caring for Howard when we're away!

We were pretty anxious leaving our babies for a week, but we felt immediately at ease after we received our first update from Antonie. He took care of our lil’ ones with lots of affection, respect for their boundaries, and attention to their needs. And he sent videos and pictures daily which provided so much comfort during our time away. We feel comfortable and confident leaving our cats in Antonie’s care to enjoy some weekend trips, in the near future!

Antonie is wonderful! From the moment he visited, he was very professional and friendly. Antonie took notes as we discussed our cats and their needs, to include daily medication administration. He let our cats come to him and was very knowledgeable about cats in general. Antonie kept us well informed with pictures and updates throughout our trip, and made sure to double check on a couple things around our house. We are so happy we found Antonie and look forward to working with him in the future since no other cat sitter has ever taken such good care of our kitties!

After a tough boarding experience, we were looking for a cat sitter and quickly came across Antonie; we immediately felt he would be a fantastic fit. Antonie met us at our place before the trip, and our cat, Mookie, immediately took to him. Antonie shared his passion for cats, discussing his years of expertise, and we were immediately impressed by his extensive range of knowledge and experience. We felt such peace knowing that Mookie would be in the hands of someone so professional, kind, and knowledgeable. We were gone for nearly two weeks, and Antonie went above and beyond to ensure that we knew our boy was cared for with daily updates, pictures, and videos. We were not concerned for one second if Mookie was being cared for, and when we returned, he was perfectly healthy and happy, and we were thrilled. If you are thinking of working with Antonie - GO FOR IT. It is truly one of the best decisions we've ever made, and we wouldn't think of ever leaving Mookie in someone else's care again. We cannot thank Antonie enough. We (especially Mookie) hope to work with him again soon. - McKenzie, Micah, and Mr. Mookie Roo

Antonie was GREAT with our cat Howard, who doesn't like strangers. He sat by Howard, and offered treats and play. Antonie was pleased to make a bit more progress was made by the end of our trip, and we came home to a much less stressed cat than when we usually go away. Atonie communicated quickly, was flexible with pre visit, and key pick up and drop off. At our pre visit, he took many notes, to be informed of what Howard needed, as well as how to check things around the house. He fosters many cats, and also volunteers at a local shelter, so we felt more than comfortable leaving Howard in his care. We definitely plan to use Antonie again, and highly recommend him!

Featured Cat Sitters Near Catonsville, MD

Frequently Asked Questions

Catonsville cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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.
