Learn More About Amy
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I previously booked a cat sitter through Meowtel and loved how responsive, caring, and communicative they were and appreciated the reassurance that my cat had everything she needed while I was away. After that, I knew that I would enjoy meeting new cats (and their owners) and signed up to be a cat sitter on Meowtel in the spring of 2023. Since then, I have had the chance to meet more and more cats and their owners and have thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to help other families feel reassurance that their cats are well taken care of while they're away.
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love meeting new cats and their families and enjoy the process of getting to know each cat during the time I'm with them.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes, I have two cats! Their names are Sabrina (6 years old) and Joy (1 year old).
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
I would recommend for them to review each nearby cat sitter's profile and availability to see which one may be the best fit. They should think about what duration of visits they may want (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether they will need once a day or twice a day visits. If they are unsure what length or frequency of visits may work best for their cat's needs, they can message a potential cat sitter directly and ask that or any other questions before requesting a reservation.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
Typically I will confirm a new cat parent's reservation and then reach out to them and set up a meet and greet appointment. During this appointment, I will meet them and their cat(s), see where their food, water, toys, and litter are and I will ask questions to get a full picture of their care and normal routine. After this, I communicate with clients before their reservation starts if they have any additional information to share or questions they forgot to ask. During the actual reservation, I send an update message and picture during every visit letting them know how their cat is doing!
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes, I normally have full availability during holidays.
What is your favorite cat toy?
I love playing with cats with either a long string or wand that they can chase across the floor!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I like to respect the comfort zone of all cats that I care for and let them determine their distance to me and the pace at which they warm up. All cats are unique and have different personalities and I love getting to know them all, whether outgoing and affectionate, playful, or timid.

Amy was absolutely amazing! She was so good with my cats, one of whom needs insulin shots twice per day. She kept me informed and sent me pictures of every visit. I will definitely be asking for her help again.

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.

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.
West Chester cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $28.00. 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 amazing! we have a full house of 5 cats and a lizard, which can be a bit overwhelming. Amy took great care of each and everyone one of them, sent great updates and pictures daily. We were especially impressed and appreciative that she came over prior to us leaving and took notes about how to best care for our pets. We 100% recommended Amy to anyone and we will absolutely be asking her to pet sit again in the future!

Amy has cat-sit our two cats twice now; once for a 2-week vacation and once for one week. She was terrific both times. She was very responsive on setting things up and in communicating with us. Amy sent pictures and videos of our kitties while we were away which made it clear that she quickly became our kitties best friend! We really appreciate knowing our kitties are in good hands while we are away. We highly recommend Amy and intend to keep her as our cat sitter!
Quinn

Amy did a fantastic job of taking care of our three cats. She made sure to keep the attention hogs happy and also lured out our shy lover for some rubs. We were very comfortable knowing they were well cared for during our extended absence and will happily use her again. I especially enjoyed the photos

She did an amazing job when above and beyond took care of everything I asked. she showed pictures of every single time, even got my one cat to sit on her lap, that I can't even get to, so I truly appreciate her and she's an amazing person if anybody ever needs someone.

Amy did amazing with our three cats during a two week trip. It was a relief to know they were being taken care of by someone trustworthy and who cares. Her communication is prompt, and she always included great pictures / videos of the cats playing. One of our cats is extremely shy and usually hides but warmed up after a few visits. The food, water, and litter areas were kept clean. Not a single complaint, cannot recommend enough!

Amy did such an amazing job with my two 7 month old kittens. it was their first time alone but Amy made it such an easy/great experience. Amy gave great daily updates of the care she provided to my kittens along with photos and videos. She responded to all of my questions about Ralph and Bagel made sure I knew exactly what they were doing and how much of their food they were eating (I was trying a new food at the time). She took care of the litter, cleaned around the litter area and even helped bring in a package that was left outside my door. She did a great job and I felt very comfortable knowing my cats were being well taken care of while I was out of town.

Amy was so great from start to finish. She was quick to respond with booking and setting up the meet and greet. During our meet and greet she was kind and professional and paid close attention to my care instructions. My more social cat took to her right away. During the visits she cared for my cats just as I would. My older cat enjoys human interaction and Amy provided her with attention and playtime. My younger cat is more skittish and tends to hide from anyone he is not fully comfortable with. Amy respected his space while still snapping a quick photo to let me know he was doing okay. My cats and my home were well cared for while I was away. One of my plants had gotten knocked over and Amy cleaned up the mess from the dirt for me (much appreciated). I would reccomend Amy to anyone in need of a cat sitter. I will most definetly be booking with her again in the future!

Amy was the perfect sitter for my cat. I was really nervous about going away for a week since my cat hasn’t been home alone for more than a weekend. Amy was very proficient and professional with timely responses and sending updates (along with adorable pictures of my cat). I would 100% recommend Amy! Thank you!

Amy was absolutely amazing! she came to the house for an intro before my trip to meet my cats. they warmed up to her almost immediately. when I was away on a 5 day trip, Amy sent me daily updates and photos that gave me so much peace of mind to know that my kitties were in great hands! would highly recommend Amy !!

We had already booked Amy for later this month for a longer vacation. But after an arrangement with a neighbor fell through last minute, Amy was able to stop by and saved us from needing to reschedule a weekend away. It was reassuring to know that the cats would be cared for while we were gone, and it was great to receive pictures showing how content they were.

Amy took wonderful care of my newly adopted senior kitty. I’ve worked with Amy for over a year, and when my 17-year-old feline companion passed away, I knew I could trust her again when I adopted my new girl. Amy’s kindness and dedication make her my go-to pet sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate care

Amy is outstanding! We highly recommend her and are so pleased we found her! She is clearly a "cat person" who is kind, confident, and patient with kitties. Amy is also a thoughtful, intelligent, and trustworthy person, which are important and valuable qualities in seeking care for our kitty family. We recently traveled for seven days, and Amy cared for our five cats, which we realize is more than a handful. But she handled it all professionally and competently. We received daily text updates and photos, which was so comforting to know that all was progressing smoothly. Our every interaction with Amy was positive, from our first portal chat right through our service wrap-up. Upon meeting Amy, we could immediately see how comfortable she was with our kitties, exuding much kindness, gentleness, and attention. We will gladly book Amy as needed for all future travel. Much thanks Amy!!

This is the first time leaving my senior feline family member with someone she doesn't know. But that has all changed as she now knows and LOVES Amy! While I was away, Amy sent reports and pictures during each stay. I now have the freedom to travel with peace of mind that my girl will be well cared for! I have already booked 3 more reservations with Amy.
