Learn More About Amber

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have been cat sitting in some capacity since I was a teenager! I love being around animals, so I started pet sitting more regularly again over the past few years and have a built a base of awesome repeat clients.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a sweet senior toothless tuxedo named Sylvia. She’s an older rescue estimated to be somewhere between 15-25 years old!! :) She's a lap cat who looks forward to mealtimes and sunning herself in the window.

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

I am accustomed to being careful when entering and exiting a home with cats in case they are curious or try to bolt. I will follow directions for safety and security of the home, including securing a key, keeping codes private, and locking up when leaving.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available to cat sit on many holidays. I know it can be challenging to find a good sitter during holidays and I’m happy to help!

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

I know many cats need time to warm up to new people. I’m a quiet and calm person, and I think many cats can sense that. If they seem curious, I'll bend over to say hi, letting them come to me and put out my hand so they can sniff. I'll stay still so they can decide if they want to approach for pets. If they have any kitty treats, I’ll try to entice them with a couple. If they need more space and time, I’ll give that. I've had a mix of super friendly and shy cats in my life, so I know how both styles operate :)

This was my first time using Meowtel and the first time using a cat sitter who was someone I didn’t know but Amber was absolutely amazing! She was very communicative and sent updates and pictures at all her visits and my kitty warmed up to her immediately!

Not only can Amber be a sitter while an owner is away but she has the ability to give your pet extra love if you work long hours. My cat Tony has been restless when I get home but on days Amber comes to visit Tony is more relaxed, calmer, and overall happier. Anyone having a restless animal that needs some TLC or energy worked out should use Amber. She is quick to respond, trusted, and overall loved by my cat Tony.

We loved having Amber take care of our elderly kitty. We knew we could trust her. She was friendly, responsible, communicative and experienced with animals. She administered medications and ministered to the needs of an old, needy, arthritic kitty. We always came home to a happy cat and tidy house. We highly recommend her!

Amber is an attentive, responsible, and caring cat sitter. You'd be lucky to have her dote on your animal(s). She will provide excellent care, let you know how they are doing, and make sure they feel loved in your absence. She is the best of the best and will also take good care of your home while you are away.

Frequently Asked Questions

Durham cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
