I'm Suzy | Cat Sitting in Houston, TX

Hello all! I'm a lifelong cat-mom and always have room in my heart for more favorite furiends. A little about me: I left my 9-5 job during the pandemic which meant lots of extra lap time for my own furbaby, Nall (and the two kittens we recently adopted!) -- and now for yours as well! I've had 11 cats throughout my life, so I've lived with many unique cat personalities. Each one has taught me so much about life and love. I understand how to engage based on what your kitty needs. As much as I would love to cuddle every single cat I meet, that doesn't mean that's what *they* would love! You can trust that I'll let your baby lead the way as we begin our furiendship. Over the years I've come to realize there are people who like cats...and there are cat people. It might sound like the same thing, but my experi...

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I've been pet sitting for friends and family since I was a teenager (~25 years now) and joined Meowtel in 2023 after having a lot of really bad cat sitters myself. I love that Meowtel is only for cats and I love being able to make sure cat parents don't have some of the same cat sitting experiences I went through.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My husband and I currently have three! Nall is our 8.5 year old big boy and in the fall of 2023 we adopted two kittens -- Allora (6 months, girl) and Revan (5 months, boy). It's so much fun having teenage kittens but I had forgotten how stinky babies are! Nall loves them and is very patient with them playing with his tail, but now that they're teething he'll let them know when they bite it too hard.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Find someone you trust and who offers you and your cats what you each need. You're not just leaving the feed and caring of your kitties to the sitter -- you're leaving your house with them, and entrusting them with anything that might go astray. Is this sitter someone who will communicate with you and who you trust to make the right decisions if they're at an emergency vet? Will they be both patient with your anxious cat and playful with your wildcat? Not every sitter will be a good fit for every cat home, and that's ok.

Suzy was fantastic again! She gave our cat her medications and made sure we were updated frequently so that we didn't worry.

This is my second time using Suzy. Squeaky loves her. She sends really nice photos and is very clear about what is up with Squeaks. I will continue to use her as long as she continues to be available.

Suzy was amazing as always, making sure to clarify and understand what I and my cats prefer during the visit, providing detailed and prompt updates, and going beyond simple care tasks to consistently give my cats the attention and playtime that make us want to keep asking her back! I never worry when I travel because Suzy is always taking excellent care of my cats!

Suzy is a godsend for me and my cat! Suzy was responsive during the initial meet and greet period, she went above and beyond, I thought, even during the meet and greet. And while every cat is different, it truly seems like Suzy is a cat whisperer that fundamentally understands cats and cat behavior. My cat immediately felt at ease around her and received all the love, care, and attention I’d wish for him to have even during the first meeting. I know Suzy has cats of her own, otherwise I would be asking her to travel with us during the trips that we do bring the cat, so that he would always have Suzy with him. Suzy was respectful of the agreed-upon meeting times, respectful of the house, and, of course, respectful to the cat. Suzy is neat and tidy, sends detailed descriptions of what is happening during the visits, and her pictures and videos go above and beyond. Knowing Suzy is here for Henry the cat in Houston makes arranging any future travel plans, much easier and stress-free.

Suzy was amazing with my cat. She discovered things that I was unaware, including a favorite spot to play. I felt very happy that Squeaky was in wonderful, caring hands. I'm a tough grader and I give Suzy 11 out of 10.

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, 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. 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.
