Learn More About Amy

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

I've been cat sitting for 3 years now, ever since I discovered the Meowtel platform.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

For me, I get to interact with kitties and destress myself from my day-to-day. For the kitties, they get a servant to open their yummy treats container, canned food and food/water replenishment (and bathrooms cleaned)! For the kitty's human, they get someone to give them updates of how their kitties are doing while they're away and ensure all is well. Everyone wins!!!

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I frequently get introverted kitties and I love the feedback from their humans who are surprised that their kitties are friendly with me! How did I do it? It's a secret!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently only have Aries, my one and only. He's 16 at time of writing and I've had him since he was 6!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Find someone who sounds super excited to be there for your cat (like me). You've found a good sitter if they're "resetting" the litter box and someone who will wash the dishes each visit.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

Due to schedule restraints, I need to know where you are first. I want to be there for your kitty, but if I can't physically make it... ): Next, I'd love to get to know what your kitty is used to via video call or face-to-face meet & greet. I have a list of questions you need me to do, and I'll confirm the list with you. During my first visit, I tell you my ETA of arrival, and take photos as I do the things your kitty is used to.

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

There isn't much for me to do here, but I'd make sure doors are locked before I enter and exit. I always pull on the doorknob to make sure the door is locked before I completely leave. You might see me do that if you have a Ring doorbell or something like that LOL.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I'm available during all holidays. I'm available during all holidays. I'm available during all holidays. (Why is there a character requirement minimum)

What is your favorite cat toy?

The toy on a string and a rod. Maximum range, maximum chase and maximum fun.

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

They're usually wary and watching: so I do things quietly and try not to make a lot of noise. When I'm done with anything I need to do, I just sit on the floor near by to show that I come in peace. The key is to not force any interaction and let the cat manage the interaction.

This was our first time using Meowtel and Amy is awesome! She took great care of our elderly cat, sent daily pictures and updates and even gave her insulin shots. 10/10 would use again.

Amy was so wonderful with my shy cats! One of my cats was already giving her leg rubs on the second visit! I got nice photos and updates and I didn’t have to worry about them at all during my trip. I will definitely be asking Amy for more visits in the future!

Amy was great! She kept us informed on how things were going. Even though our little kitty’s hid most of the time she found them to take photos to give us peace of mind. Plan to use her in the near future.

Frequently Asked Questions

Houston cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. 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. Meowtel sitters 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 we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 will include 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. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
