I'm Amy | Cat Sitting in Baltimore, MD

Hi, I'm Amy in Canton, Baltimore. I currently have four cats Sif, 11, Newt, 8, Zeke, 8 and Max, 2. I'll be 50 in November, have a car and work remotely. LGBTQIA+ By day, I am the senior cybersecurity writer for a major tech company. By night, I'd love to be your cat sitter (really anytime is fine). No cat is too challenging. I've had some unique cats over the years, and I'm ready for anything. Is your cat a diva? I am their humble servant. My dearly departed Gollum would only drink out of a certain teacup (Churchill Blue Willow pattern) toward the end of his life. Filtered or spring water only, tap water is for peasants! I'm happy to cater to their quirks. Is your cat high energy? On it. I'm pretty sure when I went to BARCs to adopt my void boy Max (Maximus Magnus Felis), they actually gave me a Tasmanian Devil. Now that he's two he actually sleeps which is amazing. I'm ready to dangle the wand or roll the ball until your cat is tuckered out. Is your cat “a problem”? Not for me. My late chonky queen Ruby was a feral tortie stray that I lured into my house with a trail of Temptations. She was extremely ill-tempered and a veteran street fighter. She slept on my bed, but if anyone else tried to pet her they'd lose that hand. I will respect your cat’s space and autonomy. Is your cat "unique"? No worries. My Maine Coon mix Sif has dwarfism and major physical/sensory/intellectual challenges. Her only form of communication is toothlessly biting my ankles and furiously meeping like Beaker from The Muppets. She loses track of her food while she is eating it. I will meet your unique on their level to ensure that they are healthy and happy. Is your cat elderly or special needs? I can handle it. Matty, our beautiful blind void boy who passed at 15, required a precise kidney care diet and twice daily pilling. I'm an old hand with cats who have special dietary and/or medical needs. I will follow care instructions to the letter a...

Learn More About Amy

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 4 cats. Sif, 11, Newt, 8, Zeke, 8, and Max, 2.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I'll take notes about the cats, their needs and the house and confirm all instructions in writing for the first visit, then update as needed.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I follow the owner's instructions meticulously. I'm cautious about opening doors to the outside or rooms that aren't safe for cats like a garage. I try to come by in the same time window throughout the engagement. I am careful to spot and eliminate hazards. I make sure points of entry are locked, alarms are set, packages/mail is taken in, nothing has leaked, etc. I'm observant and I use common sense.

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. 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.
