I'm Amy
Cat Sitting in Charlotte, NC
I have fostered kittens with several organizations. I love helping kittens socialize and learn that humans are okay! I have experience working with shy and even feral kitties. I consider it my personal challenge to befriend shy cats that I meet. I've given baths, combed for fleas, and helped them find forever homes.
I know that, when I am looking for a petsitter, I prefer someone who really understands cats, rather than a dogsitter who "also looks after cats... I absolutely LOVE cats! I have 6 of my own and I have owned cats since 2005. I love how weird and silly they are! I understand that they are all different and adjust to new people and places on their own time. I've given pills, eye drops, liquid meds, and even subq fluids when my senior kitty had kidney problems.

I know that, when I am looking for a petsitter, I prefer someone who really understands cats, rather than a dogsitter who "also looks after cats." They are not the same. While I enjoy dogs, I am truly a cat person and completely understand how important it is to leave your precious babies with someone you can trust. I treat all of my clients’ cats like my own!
In my spare time, I enjoy bird-watching, gardening, playing The Sims, jigsaw puzzles, and playing with my own cats, of course! I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and am more than happy to wear a mask and respect the rules of your home when I visit.
I am located in East Charlotte, NC and am happy to travel to nearby areas.
September 2025 update: after a hiatus to have a baby, I’m ready to jump back in starting in October! I can’t tell you all how much I’ve missed my clients, both feline and human! I am a stay at home mom to my baby and my kitties, so my availability is very limited right now. I’m currently offering availability Saturday-Monday. If you need someone on another day of the week, let me know and we may be able to work something out.
Learn More About Amy
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I’ve been cat sitting with Meowtel since the summer of 2022 and I love it! I love meeting new kitty friends!
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love getting to meet everyone’s cats! It’s so fun to hang out with them. It might sound funny but I also enjoy getting to go to different areas of Charlotte!
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Oh yes! I have six: Winston, Josie, Sugar, Griffin, Furiosa, and Claudette! I’m not sure how I ended up with so many but we have a good time!
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
Choose someone who has a professional demeanor but also someone who clearly understands and loves cats! All kitties are different and it’s important to be able to respond appropriately to different situations.
Are you usually available during holidays?
I try to be! I know holidays are a busy time for reservations and I am sometimes in town. I’ll be happy to look after your cats if I am around!
What is your favorite cat toy?
Definitely a wand toy! I’ve yet to meet a kitty that wasn’t interested in playing with these types of toys
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
It’s important to respect their boundaries, but I also want them to know I am available for interaction if they want it. Every cat is different but I’ll often sit near the kitty and use my very special kitty voice (I call it “sweet talk”) and talk to them. Depending on the comfort level of the cat, I may also offer my hand for them to sniff. Not all cats will want to interact, and that’s ok. I will still talk to them the entire time I’m there so they will at least have a bit of company.

Amy was phenomenal and we hope we can have her sit for our very shy kitty, Luna, in the future. while Luna normally won't come out for anyone but us, Amy sat and talked to her through each apportionment while she hid so by the third day she was peaking out and then playing a little. Miracle worker. All instrufollpwed perfect, great detailed updates, responsive. Couldn't ask for more.

This is my second time using Amy and I have nothing but positive things to say about her. She always sends detailed (and often funny) updates and photos making me feel less guilty for leaving. My cat is a weird one with odd bathroom habits (she pees in the toilet). And last time I left she decided to poop in the shower out of spite. I was mortified. Amy took it with stride and kindly cleaned up the mess. This time she decided to knock her food bowl over and sent kibble in every direction. Again, Amy made light of it and handled it wonderfully. I'm pretty sure my house is cleaner than when I left. LOL. I highly recommend her to any pet owner.

Amy was a joy to work with, and immediately bonded with our otherwise-shy cat during our intro meeting. She provided great and timely updates with lots of photos and videos. She was proactive in sharing issues of potential concern (like how he didn't poop for a day or two) which really put us at ease. Would love to work with her again!

I have never had a sitter that I would hire a second time until getting meowtail and finding Amy. I can tell when Oliver didn’t get any energy out while I was gone or if he’s stressed. That was not the case here. So thankful to finally find Amy.

Amy was fabulous! One of my two kitties was feeling a little sick the first half of the reservation and wouldn't take her medicine but Amy helped her feel better, took great care of both cats, and they loved her! She sent so many pics each day and was very professional and personable. Already looking to book her time for future visits!

Amy was the best! Another great sitter! She loved the girls and even asked if it would be okay to stay a few extra minutes her first day to bond with them because they were being shy. She was absolutely lovely, tons of photos/ videos and updates and went on a closet search for a kitty in hiding :)

Frequently Asked Questions
Reservations officially begin at 12:00 AM in the sitter's time zone on the start date. Cat Parents may cancel within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund, as long as the reservation has not yet started. After the first 24 hours, the following cancellation rules apply:
- More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.
- 24–48 hours before the reservation start date: 50% refund. The sitter will earn 50% of their planned earnings.
- Within 24 hours of the reservation start date (or after it has begun): No refund. The sitter will earn 100% of their planned earnings.
All refunds are initially applied to the Cat Parent's Meowtel Account Balance for use toward a future reservation or tip. Funds may be returned to the original payment method at any time.
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.
Charlotte cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!

Amy was fantastic! She took really great care of our 3 boys plus some local "community cats." She was able to lure very shy Sunny out to play and spent time with all of them every day. She sent lots of photos and kept me up to date. I highly recommend her!
Ann
August 6, 2022
This was our first experience with Meowtel and our sitter, Amy, was golden! Amy kept us informed daily of her visits and sent photos of our two cats, including 'play time' with Max our tabby. Plainly he was enjoying her visit. Our other cat, Zoe, is a very reclusive rescue but even Zoe came out to say hi to Amy... THAT is an accomplishment!! Amy was very friendly and is plainly a 'cat person'. We liked her a lot and plan to use her again on our next time away. Very professional and very caring. Good job, Amy!
Holly
July 18, 2022
Amy was wonderful. Our biggest challenge is that our kitty is so shy, that even though many can feed him, few can succeed in giving him some necessary love while we are away, but Amy did. She was able to earn his trust right away, and give him some daily rubs. Plus she gave us great updates and photos so we didn't worry too much. Highly recommend.
Holly
November 29, 2023
I am always so grateful for Amy. My kitty is old and has always been skittish and I always feel nervous when I have to leave town because I’m afraid that even if he gets fed, he’ll be so lonely. But to my surprise, he immediately fell for Amy, and when she visits he immediately goes to her and gets the love and cuddles he needs. I feel so much better now knowing he’s in good hands while I’m gone.
Response from Amy
Thanks, Holly! Sidney is such a sweet boy, I love hanging out with him 😻

Amy is the best cat sitter I could have ever hoped for!! We had a hiccup (completely my fault) and she went above and beyond waiting while I got it sorted out so she could see the kitties. Hands down will always book her.
