I'm Amber
Cat Sitting in Huntington Beach, CA
Because of Harli’s remission from cancer (yay!), I have experience with administering different types of medication including: pills, liquids, topicals, and ear drops.
I volunteered for almost 1 year at the West LA NKLA/Best Friends Animal Shelter from 2019-2020. I worked with both adult cats and kittens. I also received trainings where I learned: in-depth knowledge about cat behavior and body language; cat socialization skills; best play techniques for cat... I have been a cat person since I can remember. They are the best and each have the most unique personalities! I have been adopted by 2 cats myself - Rev (aka little monster, Bubbas, Revvy Buggy) and Harli (aka Miss Thing, Sweet Girl, Harli Girl, Love Bug). I guarantee that I will care for and respect your fur babies just in the exact same way I would expect someone to care for mine when I am away.

I volunteered for almost 1 year at the West LA NKLA/Best Friends Animal Shelter from 2019-2020. I worked with both adult cats and kittens. I also received trainings where I learned: in-depth knowledge about cat behavior and body language; cat socialization skills; best play techniques for cat enrichment (did you know there are different ways to use wand toys to get cats engaged?), techniques to reduce stress, promote behavior modification, and improvement in overall quality of life; correct and safe cat handling techniques; how to monitor cats’ health; and how to introduce myself to cats (specifically to the shy/nervous babies). There is no such thing as a "bad" or "evil" cat! Cats that have this perception about them are only anxious or scared, and require the most patience and empathy.
I will maintain all necessary COVID safety protocols as needed per your request.
Outside of cat sitting, I am a psychologist/therapist. This requires me to be very detailed oriented, a great listener, patient and empathetic, highly observant, absolutely reliable, and trustworthy – which I believe are all also very necessary for cat sitting.
I am currently located in Huntington Beach and am able to travel throughout most of OC to watch and care for your kitties. I am definitely available Friday nights-Monday nights. And due to working remotely and being in charge of my schedule, I can usually be available other times throughout the week with notice in advance.
Let's chat and meet to see if I would be the perfect fit for your cat sitting needs!

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.
Huntington Beach cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $35.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
