Meow you doin'? We're FELINE fine!
Pet care experience
Thanks so much for considering us as your trusted cat sitter! My goal is to give our whiskered friends a pleasant experience and most importantly, give you peace of mind while you're away. First time using Rover? Use the code AMBERF87312 for a first timer discount! We are Amber and David! We offer personalized one on one care to our furry clients, so that they feel loved and cared for in their own home. We carry our own pet sitters insurance and are dog & and cat cpr and first aid certified by American Red Cross. I have over 20+ years of pet care experience, including small pets and exotics, 8yrs of professional experience working in Chicago and 9yrs here in San Antonio. Why do we do cat visits only? I have been called a "cat whisperer" for as long as I can remember! Cats are very particular about who comes into their home. My goal is to make your cat feel safe and comfortable and earn their trust. I take my time to approach everyone on a personalized level, as no cat is the same as the next. We do not board cats in our home at this time. We find that it can be very stressful to cats and detrimental to their health when they are removed from the home that they know. When submitting a request, please note any specific time requests, medications, and health concerns. I am able to administer medications, to cats that are willing of course. In some cases where Kitty becomes uncooperative and it is no longer safe for us to administer, an additional fee will be assessed to include pet taxi for a vet visit for assistance. Please note, for insurance purposes and Rovers guarantee, each pet will need their own profile. They will need to be listed individually, along with any notes regarding medications, health conditions, and specific care. Please take a moment to update Veterinary information as well.
Reviews
Rebooked Amber to drop in with my cat. She is very attentive and responsive and completely trustworthy. Will continue to rebook!
Amber sent great daily updates and pictures of my cat and I felt such relief knowing my cat was getting daily check-ins and play time! She’s is extremely dependable and very easy to get in touch with. Already booked her again!
I could tell from our initial meeting that Amber would be thorough and attentive, but after having her drop in for my cat, Pepper, she still managed to exceed my expectations. I could feel that she genuinely cared about him. She was very generous photo and video updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to her again.
Amber is a reliable, communicative sitter who will take the time to give your kitties love and attention! I felt at ease knowing I had her taking care of my boys.

Safety, trust & environment
Your baby's safety comes first, so we take as many precautions as possible to ensure they are happy and safe at all times. We make sure to send daily updates so that you know what they've been up to and how much fun they have been having. We are currently not taking on dog sitting/boarding requests.
Information Amber & David F. would like to know about your pet
Is your kitty friendly and welcoming to newcomers in your home? If they are standoffish and become aggressive, are you okay with me bringing a shield of some sort to protect my legs? This may include a storage bin lid, umbrella, or hamper type. I can get creative in a pinch haha! Are there certain rooms that kitty is off limits to, or does Kitty have a run of the house? Are they an escape artist?
A typical day
Toy wands and cat dancers, stuffed mice and feathers, you name it I have it! We will play as long as Kitty is willing, but sometimes cats like their nap time more and can be weary of new visitors. In that instance, I will stay and talk to them or hang out and just be present so that they can get used to me without feeling pressured, but still have some company so they aren't lonely.

Availability
I do this full time and my husband works from home. David will only serve as a backup, should there ever be an emergency. We do have Elementary aged kids in school, so please consider school drop off and pick up times may vary my availability during this time, and note flexibility will be needed when requesting specific times for house visits.
