Learn More About Amanda

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love meeting new cats. Whether I’m on vacation in a country where strays roam the streets or visiting a friend’s home who has cats, I’m always excited to meet and figure out new cats. They all have such distinct likes and dislikes and personalities, it feels like an accomplishment to get them to trust and like you. Finding good and trustworthy sitters that my cats warm up to is so important to me, so I really strive to do that in all my sits.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two kitties, Mango and Martini, and they are both 19. Mango is very sweet but shy. Martini has always been more outgoing but is now dead and blind. Still, she likes cuddles and churu sticks and knows where to find them at any time. They are the light of my life so I know how important it is to have sitters you can trust your babies with.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I have always been a fan of laser pointers and jumping sticks. When my cats were younger they could play endlessly with those. Anything that’s stimulating for them and helps them release some energy is good.

Kirsten

I trust no one with my fur baby more than Amanda. She was a constant in my previous cat's entire life. She is a constant in my current cat's life. The second she arrives in my home Polenta is in her lap. My previous cat Jack was similarly obsessed with her. Jack had and died of cancer and Polenta has a recurring bladder crystals/stones issue. She has helped with care and medication any time I could not provide it myself due to work or travel. Beyond trusting her with my babies, I trust her in my home without a doubt. There is no better person to rely on for taking care of your cat(s). She is also a wonderful human being who is honest and communicates clearly and quickly. I would rate Amanda a 10 on a scale of 1 to 5 if I could.

Frequently Asked Questions

Santa Monica cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $35.00. 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.
