Learn More About Shaun
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I am the proud momma of 6 cats! Leeloo and Klaus are littermates that I adopted together on their 4 month birthday! Shortly after that, Beanie joined our family, because his family was moving far away and couldn't take him along. He loves having a brother and sister! Minnie is the oldest member of the family, at 11 years old, she was living in a home where domestic violence was a daily occurrence. When the family split up, Minnie wasn't allowed in the new temporary home. I brought her home to foster and help her de-stress. 2 years later, she's still here, thriving, cuddly and enjoying a peaceful Senior lifestyle! ❤️ This past May, I've adopted a 5 week old and 12 year old!
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
Following instructions and directions given by pet purr-ents is imperative for providing the highest level of safety and security for their home and fur babies. Common requests include supervised playtime with specific toys ie: feathers, wands, string or electric toys. Pets with food allergies, physical limitations and behavioral issues are also common. Checking entrances, doors, windows and other access points are double checked during home visits. All requests are followed in order and reported in after-care summaries submitted to the owners. Every home and pet require different needs, so attentive care and respect are of the utmost importance to me, in order to deliver the most stress-free and comfortable experience for you!
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes! I am available during holidays! I work holidays at the Cat Hotel, so I always stay local during these times. I am flexible with scheduling visits, so please give as much notice as possible. Thanks!

Shaun is the best!! I think our cat Raymond was a bit disappointed when we walked through the door instead of Shaun when we got back from our time away. He must have really enjoyed his time with Shaun. We are very appreciative of the wonderful care our boy received. We highly recommend Shaun to anyone who needs a conscientious and kind human to care for their feline family member.

I always trust my cats with Shaun! When looking for a cat sitter I always want to be sure I plan for things that could go wrong. Of course we never want anything to go that way but having someone protecting our babies that is gentle, kind and knowledgeable is key. Shaun has experience with giving meds, geriatric cats, and is confident and level headed in emergencies. She was available and ready when I needed someone the most with my precious black cat. She has always provided a gentle hand and engaged my boys to keep them stress free when we were away. When my last cat struggled with incontinence she didn't shy away from the mess, and she never treated my boy any different. I would always request Shaun first for my cats before any other option because I know while I am away I can enjoy myself and focus on having fun because my fur kids are being cared for just as I would!

Frequently Asked Questions

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.
If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.
Maple Shade cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.
Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a 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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet!
