Learn More About Anthony

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy connection in general. From meeting the cat parents ( effectively community members I haven't met yet and will now know ) to the kitties themselves. I know as a pet parent there is a lot of anxiety when leaving your fur-child at home and far from you. So I also find it rewarding if I can provide that reassurance that everything will be taken care of and you can simply relax and enjoy your trip. Its being able to provide that peace of mind that in turn feels good to me.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a 2 year old Lynx Point Tabby named “Po.” He was one of my fosters, and we became incredibly bonded… so I “foster failed” but I like to say I “foster succeeded” because he’s my bestie. I do have a current foster duo named "Tuna" & "Tootsie", they are a few months old, brother sister pair. Currently working on socializing them- Tuna is loving indoor life, Tootsie has a few things to say about it...

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

Feel free to ask questions. Personally I like to have the opportunity to answer and share knowledge, but also want to make sure that we are on the same page. If there are any behavioral or medical needs, be sure to state them clearly in the initial contact. That knowledge is useful to share so that you can ensure the sitter you choose is equipped and experienced to meet the need--- delaying that information might lead to an uncomfortable situation.

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

If you are interested in booking, feel free to submit a reservation request, you can always cancel or adjust as needed. That allows me to see the location, cat(s), times, durations, dates, etc. so I can compare to my current calendar and ensure the travel times, visit needs, and my abilities match. You are also welcome to contact with questions without a formal request- I will message back asap! Next: -Free meet and greet at your home, where I meet the cats, we chat, and decide its a good fit! - You leave on trip. I feed cats, check water, litter, play, pet (if they want haha), and send lots of updates. - You return. Cats are happy. 5 Star Review (Please!) and we rebook next time (Thank you!)

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

As someone who currently has fosters as well as a full time cat in my home--- I am keen on keeping an eye out for potential hazards and mitigating them. I will be sure to ask questions, and have a clear understanding of your goals while you are away.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am typically in the area and available around the holidays, as my family is a bit far! If I do travel to visit them, I would block that off in advance.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I found this small ladybug toy that is battery powered... when you turn it on the motor vibrates causing the bug to scurry across the floor on the tips of its legs. I find it fascinating, and the cats will sit and watch it for a good while.

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

Patience and reassurance. I believe in many ways the cat can see or sense your mood. So if I meet the cat with anxiety, I’ll likely get that back. I remain rather lighthearted and just try to reassure the cat that I’m here to help them and I won’t bother them or engage unless they want to

I went on a week long vacation out of state, and none of my friends or family live close to where I’m currently living, so I was apprehensive about finding somebody to care for my cat Reggie while I was gone. Upon being recommended Meowtel by one of my girlfriend’s friends, I looked around for cat sitters and saw that Anthony had consistently great reviews, so I gave it a shot. I can say without a doubt that Anthony went above and beyond and immediately alleviated any fears I had! Not only was he extremely quick to respond to DM’s, but he sent daily updates with several photos and videos showing him feeding, providing water for, cuddling with, and playing with Reggie, which warmed my heart every time. Not only did he do everything I hoped for, but he also EXCEEDED my expectations when a historic winter storm hit and complicated his ability to come and check on Reggie. Anthony went out of his way to set up an automatic feeder and an additional water bowl for Reggie to ensure he would still have his essentials even when he was unable to visit. I couldn’t be happier with Anthony’s services and he will undeniably be my first choice if I find myself needing a cat sitter again soon!

Response from Anthony on Feb 4, 2026 "Thank you for the kind words Kody! I appreciated the communication throughout - and Reggie is truly the nicest little guy! Looking forward to the next time I get to check in on him!"

I had a great experience with Anthony!! He was super flexible and very attentive to my kittens. Right before I left town, my kitten was prescribed a medication and he was more than happy to jump in and administer. He was super communicative and I felt really good about leaving my cats in his care!!

Anthony did amazing with my two boys and ended up making new friends! I have two very opposite personality boys and Anthony took care of them extremely well, it's almost like I never left. As a fellow sitter my standards are high, and I can say with absolute confidence that Anthony checks all the boxes for kitty care.

Anthony is an incredibly loving and diligent caretaker. He loves and absolutely adores cats; if he could safely keep 10+ cats in his home, he would. He takes the silliest and sweetest photos and makes you feel like you're right there with the kitties. He cares for any cat like they are his own so you know that your furry family member will be getting the best care possible. On top of all that, Anthony is incredibly intuitive, resourceful, responsible, and reliable. Anyone would be lucky to have him as a cat sitter!

Anthony will always show up on time to make sure your pet is alive and well. He’ll always give your cat love and attention before leaving. He’ll feed them fresh food and water, he will absolutely play with them to get some energy out. Anthony has always been passionate about caring for animals, cats especially! Your pet would be in great hands!

Anthony is a truly wonderful and patient cat father. He can bring the most shy cat out of their shell, is one of the few people I would trust in my home unattended, and is someone I feel I can rely on in an emergency if need be. I would entrust the care of my two cat daughters to him in a heartbeat.

Frequently Asked Questions

Pittsburgh 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 $25.00. 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.
