Cat Sitting in Medford, MA

***🐱Hi everyone! I’m currently taking reservation requests for Fridays-Mondays, with limited availability during the week. I always keep my calendar up to date with my current availability!🐱***

I’m Amy and I’m so excited to take care of your kitties! I have loved cats my entire life, started cat sitting in high school (10+ years!) and relish every opportunity I can to spend time with them. I tailor my visits to your cat’s purr-sonality, and understand some cats can’t seem to get enough playtime and attention, while others are wary from the start and I make it my goal gain their trust. I am comfortable giving cats medication...

I’m Amy and I’m so excited to take care of your kitties! I have loved cats my entire life, started cat sitting in high school (10+ years!) and relish every opportunity I can to spend time with them. I tailor my visits to your cat’s purr-sonality, and understand some cats can’t seem to get enough playtime and attention, while others are wary from the start and I make it my goal gain their trust. I am comfortable giving cats medication.

I myself feel guilty leaving my cats when I’m away and will do everything I can to make you and your cats comfortable while you’re away. I am extremely open with communication so any questions or instructions needed, I’m just a text on Meowtel away.

What sets me apart from other sitters is my deep love and understanding of cats. I was always known as the “cat girl” growing up and even to this day, so you can leave home rest assured that you have someone taking care of them who understands their specific quirks! I also love getting to know new cats, and I see each new visit as meeting a new friend!

Most of my clients are located in Somerville, Medford and Malden, but I also frequent the surrounding towns of Arlington, Cambridge, Winchester and others.

Learn More About Amy

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Getting to know new kitties! I think of them as making new friends, each with their own quirks and personalities. I like to find which toys get them moving, or for more shy kitties, the ultimate reward of gaining their trust. I always remember cats I’ve cat sit for, because they are just as varied and loving as humans.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two rescue cats at home, Atticus and Scout. I get incredibly anxious when I have to leave them at home when I travel, so I understand the worry that other cats may have when booking a cat sitter. I want to make them feel as comfortable as possible when the cats are in my care!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I find that if I respect their space, and give them the time they need to feel comfortable in my presence, I will eventually gain their trust. I will never approach a cat who is hiding or displaying fearful body language.

Amazing experience. I can’t believe how fast Amy was with her responses. I needed a cat sitter at the last minute and she came to my place within 24 hours for a meet and greet. She also gave me helpful advice about an issue one of them was having. I always got daily status updates and pictures. When I got home, there was no mess or trace that my cats had been taken care of by anyone else. I’d book her again in a heartbeat.

Amy took great care of our cat, Juno! Juno has lots of energy and requires a lot of affection. Amy sent great summaries of what her and Juno were up to, and she took the initiative to brush her! Juno presented her belly almost right away for belly pets, she could tell Amy was trustworthy! Thanks again, Amy!

I am so grateful we found Amy to care for our shy, nervous Bandit! It was clear right from the meet-and-greet that Amy is an extremely knowledgeable, patient, and compassionate cat lover. She provided detailed, enthusiastic updates and photos after each drop-in visit that alleviated any stress we had about leaving our little guy for four days. Bandit has also never warmed up to someone so quickly - it was amazing to see him blossom with a new person, even after just one visit! In the past, it’s taken him multiple visits to give a sitter leg rubs, and Amy is the first sitter with whom Bandit became so comfortable that he was his fully playful, purring self by the end. Amy will definitely be the first person we contact going forward!

Amy took excellent care of our 2 cats while we were on vacation and I felt much more relaxed knowing she was stopping by the house twice daily. I have a senior cat who has specific dietary needs and she was very conscientious about making sure those were followed. Amy also played with my cats and really got to know them in the span of a week. She must be a cat person because my shy anxious cat was happy to get pets from her - it usually takes that cat months to warm up to people. I also appreciated the informative updates and pics she provided. I really could not have asked for any more and would definitely use Amy again!

Amy took better care of my cat than my friends do 😂. Every visit I got texts from her sharing how he was doing, how the play sessions went, how loud he purred before a meal... She responded just about immediately to every message and followed everything with his care perfectly, to the point where I didn't feel even a bit of unease about leaving him in her care. She was also remarkably sweet. Left a sweet little card on her way out which was so lovely to come home to. Cleaned his food dish which I didn't even ask her to do. For my first time using this service, she blew the lid off any expectations I had. She really went above and beyond. Automatic first choice every time I need someone to watch the little boy, without a doubt.

Bandit had another wonderful visit with Amy! Their bond clearly carried over from the last weekend they spent together, which was so comforting to see (since our little guy can be quite nervous). Amy went above and beyond, and Bandit got lots of affection and playtime in addition to food and company!

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.

Medford cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $32.00. 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 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. 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 free Meet & Greet!
