Reston & Herndon cat sitter

Meet Amanda Hescock

Owner, Primary Sitter, Purrfessional Cat Whisperer

Hi, I'm Amanda. Reston local, cat mom of three, and the founder of Happy Cats Concierge. I started this business because I know exactly how hard it is to leave your cats behind and I wanted to be the reason you can travel guilt- and worry-free.

The anxious ones. The seniors. The ones with a reputation.

I’ve been caring for cats for 16 years, including my own three who range in age from 10 to 17 years old. Over time I’ve developed a particular soft spot for the cats some may find challenging: the anxious ones, the seniors, and the ones with a reputation for being a little difficult. Those cats are honestly my favorites. There’s something really rewarding about earning the trust of a cat who wasn’t sure about me at first.

What every visit looks like

Here's what happens when I arrive

  1. 1

    Find everyone, send a photo

    When I arrive I locate all your cats and send you a confirmation photo so you know immediately that everyone is safe and accounted for.

  2. 2

    Follow your instructions

    I follow your care instructions for feeding, water, and litter without exception.

  3. 3

    Medication, done carefully

    Medications are administered carefully. I have experience with oral, topical, and subcutaneous medications.

  4. 4

    Time with your cats

    I spend the remainder of the visit with your cats at whatever level of interaction they're comfortable with, whether that's active play or quiet company from across the room.

  5. 5

    A full report afterward

    You'll always know how the visit went with a detailed follow up summary report of activities, observations, and lots of great photos of your cats!
