I'm Amy | Cat Sitting in Manhattan Beach, CA
Hi fellow cat lovers! Before I rattle on about myself, let’s talk cats! Specifically, *your* cats and what you can expect with me as your kitty sitter. During my visits, I will thoroughly clean all litter boxes and surrounding areas, wash and refresh all water bowls, give feedings per your instructions (no directions are too detailed!), and give all the pets, snuggles, and play time. I like to make sure your kitty’s experience is as close to normal while you’re away to minimize any stress or fear. I’ll give you a full breakdown of my findings during my visit, including litter habits, food consumption, kitty’s mood, and how the visit went overall. I also love to take lots of photos and videos during my stay so expect to receive several each visit. This helps ensure you get the full scope of my care and videos really help show the true demeanor of your cat (coming from a cat mama of a boy who had SERIOUS RBF). I am also sure to note if anything seems off and will clarify anything out of the norm with you. By trade, I’m a self-employed graphic designer and work from my home in Manhattan Beach. This gives me lots of flexibility to come and take care of your kitties. I’m available for both morning and evening visits or any other times throughout the day. If you book a visit for “anytime,” I will arrange that visit as it best fits in my schedule unless you specify a preferred time frame. Now, a little bit about me. I’ve been a cat lady my entire life. My family always had cats wh...

Amy's Reviews
Ginette
TL;DR Amy was absolutely amazing and treated my kitties like they were her own. I have 2 senior cats - one is an FIP survivor and the other is on blood pressure medication. My FIP survivor has become really weird around strangers ever since he got sick. I have been through so many cat sitters on Meowtel/Rover/Wag (the last one we used on Rover I actually got a full refund from Rover she was so bad). My experience with these apps has been so negative that I have cut trips short and canceled plans because I just couldn't bring myself to deal with another new sitter from these apps. Amy's profile really spoke to me so I decided to try one more time from Meowtel and she absolutely blew me away! She really restored my faith in humanity. Her updates were through, she followed all my instructions to the letter, and it was clear from her updates that my cats fell in love with her. She managed to pill my shy girl cat and she was sensitive to my FIP survivor's anxiety. She played with them and even found new ways to play with toys they have that they haven't ever shown any interest in. Bottom line - Amy is a really special human being and I highly recommend her! My faith in humanity has been restored!

Amy is a wonderful sitter! She was great with our cats, giving them all of the love and attention they wanted. She is an excellent communicator and very detail oriented. She made quick friends with all 3 of our cats (even the shy one!). We'll definitely be reaching out to her for future trips.

Amy did a fantastic job with Birdie! she sent thorough updates and lots of photos and I could tell that birdie was happy! will definitely use Amy again in the future.
Tess
Amy could not have been a better sitter, and I cannot recommend her highly enough!! my cat is literally my child, and Amy completely understood that and went above and beyond in every way. She was extremely responsive and on top of everything. My kitty warmed up to her immediately, and I loved to see how comfortable he was playing with her and accepting pets and grooming. She did an incredible job, providing enrichment and playtime for him, as well as following specific feeding instructions. If you are looking for someone to treat your fur baby like their own, look no further than Amy. Also, she took the most incredible pictures and videos of my boy! Receiving her updates made me feel so happy and at ease, knowing that my boy was in good hands. Thank you, Amy!!
Peggy
This was my first time using cat sitter. Amy made the whole experience awesome! My kitties love Amy and they warned with Amy very quickly. Amy followed all instructions and was very well communicated throughout the days. I would definitely use Amy again!

Frequently Asked Questions
Manhattan Beach cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $38.00. 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. Meowtel sitters 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 we'll match you with the best options which are close by.
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 will include 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. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
