Learn More About Shauna

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy spending individual time with cats and observing their different behaviors. Cats can be sweet and energetic while also anxious and timid. Every cat I help is different in their own way which is what makes cat sitting very enjoyable for me.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

My favorite cat sitting reservation was a few years back, I was helping a client with a few of their cats and I had the best time and experience. These 3 cats were so playful, energetic and just so loving. Cats that are very comfortable and affectionate make the experience even more rewarding and remind me why how special each cat is with their unique personalities.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a sweet cat of my own. His name Eddie, he’s 4 years old and he is the most fun and energetic cat I’ve ever had which is what I really love about him.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Trying to find a cat sitter can be difficult, but the best advice I can offer is looking for someone who communicates well, seems trustworthy and friendly, and has the right attitude and patience to care for your cat, and shows you how much they respect and care about your time and energy. Ultimately someone that you know and feel is the right individual to care for your loving cats and will make the most out of every experience.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

Once the cat parent reaches out to book a reservation I schedule a meet and greet with the cat parent. If the meet and greet goes well I discuss the care and the feeding times for the cat(s) with the cat parent. If it’s a good fit for both of us , the reservation is booked. Through the dates of the visit I communicate with the cat parent by sending a message with photos or video of the cat(s).

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I always make sure that the environment, windows, and doors are closed and secure, as well as ensuring the cat is protected and loved. While taking every safety precautions to ensure the safety of your home and cats.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I’m usually available on holidays for old and new clients that need extra care and support for their lovely cats.

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite cat toys range from a laser light toy, squeaky ball toy, a tunnel toy as well as a teaser, and a peacock feather.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I have learned a few specific methods that work immediately or over time, on how to handle anxious or timid animals from working at a animal shelter in high school. It mainly depends on the personality and size of the cat. Once I know how to calm down the cat, I keep up the process until I fully know that the cat feels calm and comfortable within the presence of myself or the environment that they are in.

Shauna has a special touch with cats! My cat is generally not comfortable with anyone other than me. Shauna was able to help her relax and even play with her. Amazing!

Shauna was able to get my cat comfortable enough to come out and play with her. Everything was clean and instructions followed. The photo and texts put my mind at ease.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sacramento cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in your sitter before you leave.

Cats are territorial animals and don't do well in new environments. The presence of other cats, dogs, and even birds in kennels or animal hotels cause an immense amount of stress for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
