Learn More About Amber

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love watching how goofy other peoples’ cats are. They’re all so unique and most of them tend to play so silly. It brings me joy to watch them have fun, and to know I’m helping them feel comfortable do that while their owner is away.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am currently available for all holidays. Thanksgiving, Christmas, Labor Day, you name it and I will be there!

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

Give them their space first, if they seem open to it I approach them slowly but surely. Say their name in a soft, sweet and quiet tone. Hand gently reached out to allow them to sniff it, reassuring them along the way that I am a nice human who is just there to love them and take care of them.

Amber is a loving and reliable cat sitter. She may be part cat herself judging by how well she comprehends their personalities and idiosyncrasies. Winnie and Joseph loved her. They just thought they had a cool friend visiting and it made missing their mom less rough.

Amber was amazing! She listened to all of the needs that I have for my cat, as she has a special diet. She took excellent care of Athena, and made sure to send me daily updates. I really appreciate Amber and her attention to detail and the quality of care that my cat received. Highly recommend!!!!

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.

Albuquerque cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
