Learn More About Svitlana
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I started with occasionally helping my friends as well as fostering for a cat rescue and decided I’d like to help more people with that. Fostering for 5 years, pet sitting for a few months.
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
Connecting with a cat, I love how all of them have different personalities and habits. And of course, how cute they are!
Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?
My most recent one was for over a month. The cat, Sam, was very territorial and ignored me when we did meet and greet. But the first day I came in he was on my lap within first 5 minutes! I’ve never met a cat who was so aggressively affectionate! His parents were shocked he acted that way when I sent them videos. They said he never lived anyone so much! Guess what, when I came to visit the day after they came back, this cat acted like he never met me in his life:)
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes, their names are Masia, Marsik and Mr. Muffin. My most favorite thing to do is spoiling them! I’m so happy they are in my life!

Svitlana did an excellent job with my 16 year old, very shy kitty. Svitlana is the first, and only cat sitter I’ve ever had who was able to coax her out of hiding. After a few days they became best buddies. I’m so relieved to know when I go away, my Ruby is getting much needed attention.

Svitlana did a great job administering medication to my cat and following care instructions for my senior cat. She also gave me updates in the evening and morning on how my cat is doing.

Lana was great holiday help when we reached out with about a week’s notice. She was trustworthy, reliable, and obviously a “cat person!” Even after a miscommunication of our kitty’s schedule, she was able to be flexible with her own to make sure our older gal received the same care and attention she would get from any of our other trusted sitters - all despite it being New Year’s. We would happily contact her again the next time we’re in a pinch!

Svitlana was amazing! Niko developed a new medical problem just before we left, and Svitlana was flexible and capable such that the new medicines Niko was prescribed were delivered flawlessly. It gave me such piece of mind while I was away knowing that my fur baby was being so well taken care of after these new medical developments. Niko fell in love with Svitlana too, we will definitely be seeing her again!

Svitlana did a wonderful job of caring for my cat, Shadow. My cat liked her immediately. She was also kind enough to send me picture and/or video updates for each of the days she visited him. I will surely request Svitlana again for any future needs.

Having Svitlana care for my senior cat makes traveling so much easier. Svitlana is trying hard to befriend my very skittish cat. So far no cat sitter has even seen her. I admire Svitlana for giving it her all and making progress!

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.
If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.
Wixom cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.
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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet!

Lana was an amazing sitter for our two cats! She did a great job feeding them and caring for them. She took time each day to play with each of them and send us photos or videos. The cats really loved her and enjoyed their time with her. Lana’s communication was excellent and very timely. We look forward to working with Lana again for our future trips! we highly recommend Lana, she truly is a cat whisperer!

Svitlana did a great job. Though my senior cat is very shy and good at hiding, I felt confident that she was being cared for. I’m glad I found Meowtel and will be reaching out to Svitlana again soon.

Lana was so kind and caring, and my grumpy old lady kitty even warmed up a little which is unheard of with her! I’ve made Lana my regular sitter and know my baby will always be safe with such a loving, responsible sitter!

Svitlana took care of my cat nicely with her good experience and skill, even though my explanation was not detail enough, due to the short notice reservation. I was very happy and lucky that Svitlana was available this holiday week.

Svitlana is truly the best cat-sitter we’ve ever had! Her genuine love for animals and exceptional caregiving skills immediately set her apart. She was the first sitter our cat ever responded to positively, which says a lot — he’s usually very particular with strangers. We love to travel and always need someone trustworthy to care for our cat. On our most recent six-week vacation, we were lucky to find Svitlana. Knowing she had three well-cared-for cats of her own gave us extra confidence. We trusted her not just with our cat, but also with our home — and she delivered beyond expectations. Svitlana visited twice daily, including weekends and holidays, and regularly sent us photos and videos that clearly showed our cat was healthy, happy, and relaxed. To our surprise, he even played with her — something he’s never done with other sitters! She also went above and beyond: Gave medication with food exactly as we instructed Cleaned up any messes our cat made Made four visits in a single day when our building required doors to remain open for painting — ensuring our cat’s safety Most importantly, Svitlana provided our cat with the emotional support he needed during our long absence. She engaged with him during every visit, and by the end, he was completely in love with her. We can’t recommend Svitlana highly enough. If you’re looking for a responsible, compassionate, and reliable pet-sitter — she’s the one!

Svitlana is truly an animal whisperer—my pets are absolutely glued to her energy. She has a calm, grounding presence that animals seem naturally drawn to. Beyond that, she’s responsible, attentive, and genuinely cares about the well-being of every animal she meets. I can’t recommend her enough!
