About: I’ve been around cats for many years and currently have three cats of my own! Living with multiple cats has taught me that every cat has their own little personality and habits. I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, grooming, and giving medications when needed, including oral medication, inhalers, and topical treatments. I know how important it is to keep their routine consistent, and I’ll treat your cats just like I treat my own! I also pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy levels, and behavior. I believe every cat deserves patient, gentle, and personalized care. I work full-time in Strathroy and live in London, Ontario, so I’m happy to take bookings in both areas! I’m generally available for drop-in visits in the mornings, evenings and on weekends. I’m also open to house sitting depending on the dates and arrangements. I know cats love their routines, so I’ll do my best to stick to their usual feeding schedules and daily habits. I’ll always keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know how your kitties are doing! Your cat’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box maintenance, and any special care needs. I respect your home, keep your cat’s environment clean, and make sure doors and windows are securely closed. I also pay attention to any unusual changes in your cat’s appetite or behavior. I’ll provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Your cat will always be treated with patience, kindness, and love.

About: With over 4 years of hands-on professional experience in a veterinary hospital, volunteer experience with therapeutic riding programs and animal care organizations, and 10+ years of personal pet care experience, I bring a strong foundation in animal health, behaviour, and compassionate handling. My veterinary background has equipped me to recognize changes in an animal's behaviour or well-being, confidently care for pets with different personalities and needs, and prioritize their safety and comfort. Whether your pet loves energetic walks, playtime, or cozy companionship, I tailor my care to their individual personality and routine. I treat every pet like family and strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience, giving you peace of mind while you're away! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy incorporating into my daily routine! On weekdays, I typically offer morning walks before work or school and evening walks afterward, depending on my schedule. Saturdays offer additional flexibility, while Sundays are generally my most available days for walks, drop-in visits, and extra attention. I understand that every pet and family has different needs, so I'm always happy to discuss scheduling and availability to find an arrangement that works for everyone. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care that fits comfortably into your pet's routine! When caring for pets in their own home, my priority is maintaining their familiar routines and creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, medication routines, or simply providing companionship, I carefully follow each owner's instructions and tailor my care to their pet's individual needs. With over 4 years of experience in a veterinary hospital, I'm attentive to changes in behaviour, health, and comfort. I also have training in Pet First Aid and CPR, allowing me to approach pet care with additional confidence and preparedness. I treat every pet and home with the utmost respect, providing attentive care, affection, and regular updates so you can feel confident while you're away. For house sitting and extended care, I'm happy to discuss scheduling and any special accommodations your pet may require!

“Anastasija was great with my kitty cat, Issac. He’s a little shy, so he doesn’t come out for everyone, but when Anastasija came over to meet him, he greeted her immediately. We didn’t even have to lure him with a Churu. A true cat whisperer! Anastasija did an amazing job pet-sitting Issac. Not only did he feel comfortable and safe with her, she provided plenty of playtime and affection. And she made sure everything was nice and clean when I got back from my trip. I’m super grateful to have come across Anastasija, and I would absolutely recommend her.”

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
