I'm Shelly
Cat Sitting in Anna, TX
I absolutely adore cats and would love to help care for your fur baby while you are away. I have many many years of experience loving on kitties. Growing up we had many cats. I had a few that even had kittens. So, I am very comfortable caring for cats. And, for the last 14 years I have been a pet nanny in McKinney, Frisco, Prosper and Celina. Now we live in Anna and I am expanding to include more areas... Hello! My name is Shelly.
I absolutely adore cats and would love to help care for your fur baby while you are away. I have many many years of experience loving on kitties. Growing up we had many cats. I had a few that even had kittens. So, I am very comfortable caring for cats. And, for the last 14 years I have been a pet nanny in McKinney, Frisco, Prosper and Celina. Now we live in Anna and I am expanding to include more areas. I would love to add some fur babies to love on and care for in Anna, Melissa, Van Alstyne and surrounding areas near by as well.
Here’s what you can expect of me. I always come do a complimentary meet and greet with you and your fur baby. This is where I can find out how to best care for them in the way that you would. I will gather all important information on schedule, food, medications, etc. It is very important to me to try to help stick to the routine your fur baby is used to.
I am very flexible and available most everyday. I look forward to caring for your kitties.

We have some very shy cats. Shelly was able to get them to open up and play. she did a great job taking care of them and playing with them. This was the first time that we have been away from them for an extended period and she was able to get them to open up and play.

Shelly took such great care of our four cats while we were away. She sent us daily updates and photos, and it was clear she took the time to really engage with each cat. On top of that, she kindly watered our plants and brought in the mail — such a thoughtful touch. Everything was in perfect shape when we got back, and the cats were clearly well-loved. Highly recommend. We’ll definitely book her again!

Shelly came to my rescue when I had to go out of town for a couple of days. My 3 cats had never been alone overnight before and she handled a couple of visits per day expertly.

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.
Anna cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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 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. 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 free Meet & Greet!

I cannot recommend Shelly highly enough as a pet sitter! From the moment we met, her love for cats was evident. She took the time to understand my babies unique personalities, giving me peace of mind while I was away. Shelly’s communication is fantastic—she sent regular updates and photos, which reassured me that my kitties were happy and well taken care of. Her reliability and flexibility made the entire experience seamless. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares for your pets, Shelly is the perfect choice!
