I'm Amy
Cat Sitting in Westwood, NJ
I have many years of experience caring for cats of all ages - kitten to senior.
I am flexible with my schedule and able to care for your kitty once per day to multiple times a day, and overnight as needed.
Cats with more timid or quirky personalities are awesome too, I am patient and understanding of cat behavior and will do my best to make sure your kitty is happy and comfortable!
Learn More About Amy
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have an almost 14 year old senior cat named Greyling. He is a grey tabby and I love him dearly. I have had him since he was a 5 month old kitten!
Are you usually available during holidays?
Due to my flexible schedule, I can be available on holidays, weekdays, and weekends! I make adjustments to be there whenever I am needed.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I let cats that are particularly timid or anxious come to me when they are ready. If their parent approves of me giving them treats, I will sometimes try giving them a treat to begin building trust and rapport. Once they are comfortable with me, I will interact with them on their terms. I have had cats who were really scared of strangers cuddle with me on the couch after just one visit!

My often aloof furbabies took to Amy immediately! it was our first time leaving them and I was so nervous. But I had absolutely nothing to worry about because Amy took such good care of my two cats. She engaged in continuous communication with us so I could see firsthand how happy my furbabies were and how conscientious Amy was. I can't thank you enough, Amy!

This was my first time using Meowtel. I wasn’t sure how it would work, but I was extremely pleased with the entire process. Amy was amazing! My typically very shy cats took to her quickly. She showed up on time took care of all of the cat duties as requested. I got great pictures and videos while I was away. She is an amazing cat sitter and I would use her again!

Amy was extraordinary! Always keeping us updated on her way to our house and also loved the pictures and videos she sent us while she was at home playing and feeding Ovey. Perfect catsitter. Will definitely be texting Amy again in the near future.

Amy did a great job caring for our two cats and got our more reserved boy to come out of his shell a bit. She's super responsive too!

It is exceedingly obvious how seriously Amy takes her responsibility and how much she truly loves cats. She is reliable, punctual, and extremely interactive with the cats. She is sure to communicate during her visits and responds quickly. We have reserved her services multiple times and she has exceeded expectations every time. I completely recommend her for anyone who is looking to make sure their pets get the best care while away or out of town. Thank you Amy!

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.
Westwood cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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!
