I'm Shelby | Cat Sitting in Methuen, MA
Hey there, I'm Shelby! Welcome to the Snuggle Cat Sanctuary, where kitty cuddles are abundant 😻 I have always been a cat-lover since I was a little girl asking Santa for my first black and white kitty that I named "Oreo". I currently have one cat named “Opal” and I love her to bits. She is a very spoiled, particular princess type cat – and I promise to pamper your cats with the same love and commitment as I do for my own fur baby! I am great with animals and have over 25 years of experience owning and caring for cats, dogs, horses, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish and other various pets and farm animals. I have been pet sitting for my family, friends, and neighbors for many years. Cats hold a very special place in my heart - I have been a long time volunteer at my local animal shelter, and I have also worked with trap, neuter, release programs to help feral cats. I have experience hand-raising kittens, caring for sick and elderly cats, as well as cats with FHV. I am comfortable administering o...

Shelby's Reviews
Regina
Shelby did a great job! She came to meet both us and the kitties first, armed with a clipboard to take notes. She sent great pictures and made us feel better about leaving our babies in her care. We would highly recommend her services.
Matthew
The reservation and Shelby was an excellent Cat Sitter. I was very happy and pleased with her dedication for taking care of my three cats.
Morgan
Shelby is the cat whisperer!!! All 6 of our kitties loved her and she brought the shyest ones out of their shell. She pays attention to detail. Shelby not only did an amazing job for our babies, but also brought in the mail & deliveries, washed kitty dishes, replenished water & kibble and wet food. Cleaned kitty boxes daily. She even waters plants! We have found our forever care giver of our cats and house sitter. Thank you Shelby for your amazing services. You are a dream come true for our family. Love, The Murray’s

Frequently Asked Questions
Methuen cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $32.00. 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.
