Pet care experience

Cat lover here

Dog sitters are easy to come by... Cat sitters? Not so much. Quality cat sitters who truly love your animals as their own, and understand cats are different t than dogs? Even more rare. I'm the person who will pet a cat that comes up to her, anywhere anytime. The lady on the block who has treats by her front door for the neighborhood stray who frequently stops by. I have cats of my own... Orange boys who are like my kids, one of whom i rescued from the streets and another who underwent a subtotal colectomy three years ago and survived because of awesome vet care and my attention to detail for post-op care. I've had cats growing up, and even went through immunotherapy to have them as an adult. I understand the need for routine litterbox cleaning, fresh water, and the nuances of cat care. I give you the same Rover experience I would want as a client myself. Lots of photos and videos and stories of the cat activities from their POV. True cat lover here!

Safety, trust & environment

I will drop in as you require, based on the schedule we agree upon. I will scoop litter daily, unless you have an automatic litterbox. Even then, I always like to make sure all kitties are pottying regular (thats a holdover from my Sheldon's gut issues). If your cats like to be brushed, or brushing is necessary, just leave out the brush or comb and I'm happy to include with pets and scritches. Playtime is included for those who are out and about if they're interested. For those cats who aren't as social, i just check on them visually in their hiding spots but leave them be. Cats are a whole vibe! I am also happy to take in mail or packages if required.

Amanda was friendly, responsible, and such a cat lover! She took very good care of our cat, providing daily care. It was reassuring to know we had someone we could count on when we were away.

Amanda was willing to come check on our cat last minute. She is very communicative and quick to respond. I feel like she's a true cat person, so I was comfortable with her caring for ours! Will not hesitate to book with her in the future.

I was so nervous leaving my 3 kittens by themselves for the first time, but Amanda took amazing care of them. She did a fantastic job entertaining them and learning their little quirks, and even the shier one warmed to her super quick! I also absolutely love the very thorough cards she sent each day, with lots of pictures too!

Amanda is fantastic! Super reliable and goes above and beyond. She was even willing to learn how to give my diabetic kitty his insulin, so I know my cat is in good hands when I book with her. Would highly recommend her if youre looking for a cat sitter to trust with your babies :)

Amanda was awesome taking care of our four cats!! She followed their care instructions to a tee!! She also spent time playing with the kitties and gave them lots of pets and chin scratches!! I really enjoyed the photos and videos she sent me. Amanda is a very sweet and caring person, and it showed with how well she took care of our fur babies!! I will definitely use Amanda to take care of cats again!!

Schedule

I work from home, and can make my own schedule so anything in my service area of Independence is easily managed. Will consider additional areas if necessary.

Cats
Amanda can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I'd like to know if they are gregarious, or if they tend to hide when company is over and where the favorite spots are. Are they declawed, prone to biting or scratching outside of normal play, any unusual pottybox habits to watch for (ex: my subtotal colectomy cat has loose stool... Which is normal b/c he doesnt have a colon... But could alarm someone who didnt know)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass an identity verification. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
