Learn More About Aniqa

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

I have cat sat for friends over long periods of time. That includes either staying at their place of residence for that time or making twice daily trips to care for the cats.

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

Having all important care instructions and emergence numbers with me during every visit is important. I know families will have their preferences on how they would like me to enter the house and lock up each time. I know it’s also important for cat door hygiene to be entering doors they know not to go through or being aware of cats that may like to escape when doors are opened.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available during most holidays, but definetly available during Christmas and the New Year. I am also in town during school holidays as well.

if you ever need a sitter for your cat, I highly recommend Aniqa . My cat Mowgli warmed up to her the very first time meet & greet. Aniqa was very punctual , caring , responsible . Aniqa kept my place nice and clean. One time my cat threw up, Aniqa cleaned up my carpet perfectly . she spent time with my cat, petting, gave him loves like her owns. I am extremely happy with everything Aniqa did for my cat during 3 weeks I was out of the country. Aniqa updated me after every visit with my cat, she sent pictures or video of that day, that’s very thoughtful , also felt good knowing your cat is in good hand. Thank you so much again Aniqa for great service that you provided .

We went away for two weeks and Aniqa kept us updated on our cat the whole time. She played with him lots and gave him lots of love while we were away. She even brushed him one visit which we did not ask her to do! she went above and beyond for our pet. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Alexandria 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 $29.00. 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.
