Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced & Fun Cat Sitter
At this time, I'm focusing exclusively on cat sitting. As a cat owner, I know how challenging it can be to find knowledgeable and reliable care for our feline companions. Growing up I took care of our family pets including large snakes, dogs of all sizes, and several breeds of cats. I am the go-to sitter among my friend group in my home state and, as a new resident of California, I would love to start caring for pets again. I have 3 Persian rescue cats (2 seniors) with advanced medical needs who require daily medicine, special meals, and grooming; therefore, I'm very comfortable helping with the specialized needs of individual pets. I am experienced with the care required for flat faced and long haired cats.

Safety, trust & environment
Since my senior cats are a bit grumpy, I'm offering drop-in and housesitting services only. However, I come to each client's house prepared to care for their cat as if it were my own. In order to prevent a cat's escape, I always carry a large purse, or backpack, to place in front of the door each time I enter the home. I make sure to respect the property by removing my shoes, locking all doors/windows for safety, and remaining alert for any unexpected issues (chirping smoke alarms, unplugged fountains/feeders, etc). I keep an open line of communication via messages and photos, so if the cat is behaving strangely or appears sick/injured I will notify you asap. Please remember to keep veterinarian info up to date in Rover in case of an emergency.
Ratings and reviews
Amanda house sat with our two cats 3 times now. The last visit we had a new kitty that is a bit skittish at first, but she seemed to warm up quickly to Amanda. Both cats really like her and she takes great care of them. She is also very considerate of the house and everything is very tidy when we return home.
Amanda always works super hard to accommodate us into her schedule, and takes great care of my cat. She goes the extra distance to make sure everything is in order and therefore, I never look anywhere else for a sitter!
Amanda was an amazing pet and house sitter. We were away on our cruise honeymoon, so having someone reliable was a must. Amanda sent pictures every day, communicated clearly, and went above and beyond. In addition to all that, she really is wonderful with cats! We will be booking with her again. Thank you, Amanda!
Second time booking with Amanda, who is very sweet to my cat and is very easy to communicate. Thank you for taking care of my cat during holiday season!
I’ve been using Amanda as a cat sitter for years! We always trust our cats will be in good hands with her. This latest visit, we were alerted of a water leak and Amanda helped us stop the problem and made sure there wasn’t any damage. Very thankful she was there to take care of things while we were away!
Amanda is always reliable, sends great pictures, and the cats love her. She’s our go-to sitter!

Schedule
I am currently a full time remote student so I can make my own schedule. This allows me to give your cat all the attention and love they deserve.
