I'm Susan

Cat Sitting in Houston, TX

My background is in animal rescue as a foster and volunteer for a high volume shelter as well as private rescue groups. After a decade of working with countless cats from unknown backgrounds, I have come to understand them and how to cater to their individual personalities and needs.

My rescue focus is on the most vulnerable and demanding - babies, medical cases, and street cats. I am a neonatal kitten specialist and experienced in caring for cats with special and/or medical needs, disabilities, and seniors...
My background is in animal rescue as a foster and volunteer for a high volume shelter as well as private rescue groups. After a decade of working with countless cats from unknown backgrounds, I have come to understand them and how to cater to their individual personalities and needs.

My rescue focus is on the most vulnerable and demanding - babies, medical cases, and street cats. I am a neonatal kitten specialist and experienced in caring for cats with special and/or medical needs, disabilities, and seniors. I have a watchful and experienced eye and I am able to give medications, provide eye/ear care, treat skin conditions, give injections, fluids, and more.

I will diligently follow any and all instructions you leave, and I will treat your home with respect. I will bring in packages/mail, water plants, fill birdfeeders and outdoor cat bowls. Send me a message if you have further needs or requests I can assist with.

I am flexible, accommodating, and available year-round, including holidays and overnight stays. Rest assured, your kitties will be in good hands.

Learn More About Susan

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Working in shelters and rescues, I am used to seeing the consequences of irresponsible, abusive, or neglectful pet owners, so it's easy to become jaded. Getting to see the opposite end of that spectrum and working with cats that are in good homes with loving and responsible owners is definitely my favorite part of cat sitting. It's a whole different ballgame.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have three kitties of my own, Lucky, Talia, and Cilla, and I have a revolving door of foster kittens that keep my home lively. I raised Cilla, who was born blind, from the age of 3 weeks, and watching her overcome the challenges of blindness has been super cool and downright amazing. Just as rewarding has been watching Talia transition from being a street cat to a lap cat. Lucky is my big hunter and daily 4:30 AM alarm. They are a fun group.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

Patience, reading body language, and respecting boundaries are key in building trust. Cats operate on their own time, so I allow them to decide when they are ready to be around or interact with me without being rushed.

Susan was amazing, as always! She always goes above and beyond for my boys, along with the outside animals I feed. My playful boy loves her bag of tricks she brings, and my shy boy knows she will respect his space while still making sure he’s safe and happy. Susan even helped ensure the feral cats I feed had a nice warm spot to bunker during this last cold snap. I absolutely love Susan, and can’t recommend her highly enough!

Susan provided excellent service for my cat, Tiger. She didn't just take care of the minimum needs, she went out of her way to give Tiger a fun time. She brought toys and used a laser to give the cat some good exercise chasing it around. She sent photos and videos every visit, which helped minimize my worries about how the cat was doing. My trip was during the holidays, and having Susan available made a huge difference for me. When I met Susan I immediately felt like my cat would be taken care of adequately, but I couldn't have expected such wonderful care. Can't recommend Susan highly enough, she's an 11 on a 1 to 10 scale. Would give her 8 stars if the system would allow it.

🌟 Five-Star Review for Susan, Our Amazing Pet Sitter! 🌟 I cannot recommend Susan highly enough! She went above and beyond while caring for my Bengal cat, showing incredible patience, affection, and attention to detail. Bengals can be a handful, but Susan handled everything with ease, keeping him entertained, well-fed, and happy. What truly impressed me was that she didn’t stop at just caring for my cat—she also took wonderful care of my pet frogs. It’s rare to find someone so versatile and willing to learn about different animals, but Susan embraced the challenge and made sure every creature in my home was looked after. Her reliability, communication, and genuine love for animals gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Susan is not just a cat sitter—she’s a compassionate, trustworthy caregiver who treats pets like family. If you’re looking for someone who will go the extra mile, Susan is the one! 🐾🐸

Susan went above and beyond when watching my boys. She sent multiple pictures and videos every day, played with my hyper cat, and respected my scared cats personal space. She even took it upon herself to refill my bird feeders outside, and the stray cat bowls I set out. Susan is absolutely amazing and I’ll 100% be booking with her again.

We had an emergency come up in the morning and were able to book Susan last minute the same day. She was super flexible and really helped us out when we needed it most. She showed up quickly, was very professional, and our cats loved her! She followed our instructions, played with them, and kept us updated with photos and messages. It gave us a lot of peace of mind, and we’d definitely book with her again.

Susan was awesome! She came right on time and did exactly what we asked on our care guide. This made us feel a lot better about the care for our two cats. She also sent a lot of videos and pictures which reassured us of what was happening. Susan definitely knows cats and we recommend her!

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.

Houston cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $23.00. 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!
