I'm Anastasia
Cat Sitting in Woodside, NY
I’ve helped roommates socialize newly adopted cats who needed time to adjust, but I’m also great with cats who need lots of attention and love. I love to send pictures and updates, and I’m happy to work with any requests or concerns!
Learn More About Anastasia
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I ask them how their cat typically is with strangers and make sure I follow any advice they have about how to best care for their kitty. I make sure I know all of the important information surrounding medicine, food, and emergency vet care. I also ask how often they would like updates and pictures and follow that so they feel comfortable and know I’m taking great care of their cat.
What is your favorite cat toy?
I love anything attached to a string! It’s the most active toy for the cat, and I love that you can also play with their hunting instincts by keeping it still for a few moments before making it go crazy again!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I sit on the floor and give them the time and space to approach me. I keep my voice quiet and level to ensure they feel comfortable approaching me. I also utilize any tips left by the owner and combine favorite treats and toys to coax them out.

Anastasia was very attuned to my cat and responded according including play and adjustments to her food. Her reports were specific about Tansy and what had done on each specific day. Food bowls, kitty litter and toys were left very tidy.

Anastasia was amazing! She gave detailed updates, photos, and videos and was clearly dedicated to making sure Disco was as happy as could be while I was gone! She clearly cares and is very knowledgeable about cats, and that care showed throughout Disco’s time with her. Disco fell in love right away and I was so impressed by how above and beyond Anastasia went!

Anastasia did a great job with our senior cat. Anastasia asked lots of great questions and advance to make sure she had all the needed information, including questions that I hadn't fought to ask myself. she was diligent with her notes and follow-ups, and made sure the cats area was clean and tidy. I can tell our cat liked her from the video she sent. I'll absolutely book her again.

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.
Woodside cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. 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!
