Learn More About Shanna

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I haven't been sitting professionally for very long, but my cat experience is extensive. I've been working in cat welfare shelters for over 20 years, and have done some studying in Veterinary Assisting. I've dedicated my entire life to the care of cats.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Being able to bring comfort to kitties who need someone to care for them when their people are away, and to give the people their peace of mind.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have one kitty right now. She is a rescue named Sweets. She was a long-term-stay at the shelter because she was very moody and did not care for people. One day she hopped in my lap, she wouldn’t let me touch her. The same until the next day. and the next day…. so I brought her home where she turned into such a cupcake cat.

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

Make sure you're as detailed as possible about the care you need for your cat, and what their favorite things are. I always want to know what there favorite hiding spots are, and where they like to have their hairballs. Even if it seems small, it can mean a lot in terms of support for your kitty.

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

I like to understand both the needs of the cats, and the human! I tailor my approach to each client so the expectations are understood, met, and typically, exceed.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Always! I am always available to work during the holidays and even extended stays. My flexibility is very reliable for care.

What is your favorite cat toy?

Anything marinated in fresh catnip!

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

I meet them where they are, which means I assess them individually when I care for them. This means the little wallflowers will have a chance to blossom, or they can simply be cared for and enjoy their own space with just keeping them company.

Shanna did an excellent job taking care of my cat. She took daily pictures and sent them to me, gave me daily updates too! Clearly she loves cats and does a great job caring for them.

Shanna is the quintessential cat sitters' cat sitter. She is highly knowledgeable about cats, their behavior, needs and ways to relate with them. Shanna loves cats and that appreciation shows in her exceptional care of them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Nampa cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $27.00. 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.
