Shannalee did a great job! It's been a 5 year search and I finally found a Cat Sitter who is a keeper. Every day she sent me many photos and videos of my cats, so I got tenfold the relaxation out of my vacation than I have in the past. I could tell from the photos and videos that my cats were relaxed and not stressed. When I returned home, no one yelled at me for having to go without their favorite food, or without treats or dirty litter (yes, I have 2 extremely talkative cats who scold me for any oversight). What a treat! Instead, they were all lounging on my bed, not a care in the world. A lounging cat is a happy cat; and of course, happy cat, happy life!😉 She also kept the litter area vacuumed so the cats didn't track litter into my bedroom! I cannot recommend highly enough. She is 100% trustworthy, conscientious, thorough and responsive. It felt like mine were the only animals she was caring for and I know that wasn't the case.

Fantastic sitter! I've had my friends before watch my cat and they do OK, but missing the love and attention I wanted to give my little old man. She gave 100% love and attention, followed all direction perfectly, and frankly my cat loved her (confirmed via pet cam). Will be my go-to going forward.

Shannalee is very flexible and communicates well. My cat is very shy and does not like strangers, but somehow Shannalee managed to give him some sweet head scratches. She clearly knows how to keep a nervous cat relaxed.

Shannalee did a great job of caring for my cats! She was patient with them and got them to trust her quicker than almost anyone else they've met. She sent lots of good pictures and a nice summary of the visit!

Shannalee made everything very easy. I always felt like my cat was in loving caring hands and she gave lots of cute pics and updates. Would highly recommend her for watching your cats.

ShannaLee is dependable and compassionate—two of the most crucial traits for a pet sitter to have. Whether her own pets, those of friends, or abandoned/stray animals, her focus is on the health, safety, and comfort of pets.

Shanna is respectful and reliable. I trust her 100% with my two cats! She helped care for my elderly cat after he had recently been diagnosed with diabetes. I was able to take a vacation with her caring for my cats because I knew they were in good hands! Shanna gave him his injections and monitored for symptoms/behaviors. She also takes wonderful pictures of cats and sends them daily :)

Frequently Asked Questions
Minneapolis cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.
Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
