Pet care experience

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. True cat lover here!

Amanda took fabulous care of Gizmo! She provided detailed updates and lots of photos, which was so fun, and gave him plenty of play time and snuggles. ☺️ Gizmo says he’d be happy to have Amanda catsit again!

Amanda is such a phenomenal cat-sitter and so conscientious and thoughtful of all of our needs (us being two cats and two humans). We had a wonderful, seamless experience and will absolutely book again!

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.

Information Amanda G. would like to know about your pet

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)

A typical day

Wow this app is dog-centric haha. I typically play with my cats with laser pointers or feather toys, and one of my boys loves their catnip bananas!

Availability

I work from home, and can make my own schedule so anything in the downtown loop is easily managed. I visit my boyfriend in Independence on the weekends but also come downtown daily to my place to take care of my own cats.
