Hi, I’m Shawnda, your reliable veterinary technician. I have over 19 years of professional experience working with cats and dogs and even more with my own fur babies.

Shawnda's Reviews
Heather
Shawnda was very sweet and patient with my shy elderly cat. Communication was great, I will book again!
Emily
Shawnda was amazing and took such great of my little guy! She gave daily updates and made sure everything was clean and tidy between his toys and food. She made getting away stress free and easy!
Faith
Shawnda was amazing. She is very responsive and sends pictures and detailed updates every visit. She is also a vet tech and it put me at ease knowing a true professional was coming in every day to check on our cat, who is prone to developing ulcers on her eye. This came in handy when our cat did develop a small ulcer—Shawnda brought her into her clinic and then worked with us to adjust her visits so she could administer antibiotics twice a day. By the time we got back from our trip, our cat’s eye was looking significantly better. Shawnda also offered to water some plants for us, which we absolutely did not expect but appreciated! I seriously cannot recommend Shawnda enough!! Your kitty(ies) will be in great hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
Garland cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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.
