Pet care experience

Your work-from-home cat lover!

I’ve taken care of cats and had my own for over half my life, and based on the number of cat-related memes people send me, I can probably be classified as a crazy cat lady. I have experience with everything from domestic short and long hair cats, to special need breeds like Ragdoll and hairless Sphinx/Devon Rexes, to large and active breeds like Bengals and Maine Coons. Special skills include: giving medication to cats via shots or orally, cleaning the ears of naked kitties, getting timid cats out of hiding and onto my lap, and taking amazing photos for you to enjoy while you're gone (my day job is wedding photographer!)

Safety, trust & environment

My lovely senior cat, Katniss, gets all of my love and affection at home. She is spoiled beyond belief, and her senior needs mean I have experience with administering special diets and keeping a home in immaculate shape and accommodating to her aging body. I do a lot of editing photos and reading on the couch, so I make a perfect cuddle buddy for cats that need a lot of attention.

Amanda went way beyond providing fantastic care for our two cats. She adapted and kept us notified when our power went out and made sure the cats were safe and comfortable. Amanda is a fantastic person and sitter who cannot recommend enough!!!🥰

Leilah received wonderful care while we were away. We greatly appreciated the thoughtful updates and photos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in attentive hands! We wouldn’t hesitate to book again! 😊

Amanda is always the first person I go to when it comes to watching my cat! She is attentive, caring, and communicative and always goes above and beyond. Plus my kitty looooves her!

Amanda is a fabulous pet sitter who treats my pets like her own. I trust her with all of my fur babies! I have used her for years and she is my first choice for pet and house sitting.

Amanda has such a special touch with cats and an intuition for caretaking. Her own kitty, Katniss, is 13 years old but you’d never guess based on how playful and healthy she is! And the best part: Amanda is a professional photographer who will be able to capture the most beautiful photo check-ins of your furry friend while you’re away.

Schedule

I currently work from home for up to 8 hours a day with an extremely flexible schedule. I’m a great sitter for cats that need a lot of attention because I can truly be there all day long. Since my jobs is sedentary, I'm a great companion for cats that want to cuddle all day. During wedding season (May-Oct), I have less flexibility on Saturdays because I'm at a wedding for the bulk of the day, but I can always return to your home to spend the night with your cat(s).

Cats
Amanda can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I have experience with special and exotic breeds (Bengal, Devon Rex, Sphynx, and Ragdoll), as well as experience with diabetes injections, specialized diets, and high-energy cats. I'm able and willing to give baths and clean the ears of hairless cats as part of their regular care. Please give me a heads up if you need special care for your pets!
