I'm Heather
Cat Sitting in Plano, TX
I bring a calm and inviting energy in caring for your loved ... Meow’s it going! My name is Heather and I.love.cats! I grew up with cats and I have had one ever since. I also have experience working for a nonprofit pet adoption center where I socialized cats and kittens of all backgrounds to understand their personalities and needs for a successful adoption.
I bring a calm and inviting energy in caring for your loved ones and getting to know them, on their terms of course. I am patient and very detail-oriented. I like to learn about all of the nuances and routines that will make your cat feel at ease while you’re away. Please feel free to ask any questions or make any special requests and I will do my best to help. I look forward to meeting you and your sweet kitties!
Learn More About Heather
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I enjoy learning about each cat’s personality and earning their trust. My cat is timid with strangers so I get it. Patience is everything.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
My current princess is 14 year old Violet that I rescued from a shelter when she was roughly 1 year old. She’s shy, but smart and food motivated- we have learned how to sit and high five for treats!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Calm interactions and plenty of time for them to smell all the smells is a must, even if it’s from a distance at first. I wait for them to let me know it’s time for a pet and a couple of treats each time also creates a positive association.

We recently had to leave Yuki for 20 days and were quite anxious about how she would cope. Stress can have significantly harmful effects on cats, and to complicate things, Yuki had just developed chin acne that required treatment. Under Heather’s diligent daily care, though, Yuki did exceptionally well. We received daily updates and lots of photos that made us smile, giving us peace of mind that our little family member was in good hands. Her acne even cleared up while we were away. Heather is outstanding; quick, responsive, and attentive. She kept Yuki well-fed and happy, which meant we could actually relax during our trip. She also went above and beyond by keeping our plants watered. 12/10 rating :)

Heather was great with my three cats, and very quickly got even the most skittish of them to come out from hiding. I really appreciated all the wonderful pictures and updates she sent! I would definitely ask Heather to watch my kitties again.

I’m very pleased with Heather’s service. Had to go out of state on a last minute notice and was scrambling, but she made sure my cats were well taken care of and it shows! Frequent updates with pictures to make sure they’re doing great. Will definitely reach out to her for next time

We (and our kitties) loved having Heather pet sit for us! She provided daily updates and pictures, and let us know that everything was okay at home. Our home was also super clean when we got back, which is always nice to come back to after you’ve been away! We will for sure book with Heather again in the future and would recommend her to anyone needing a cat sitter! :)

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.
Plano 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 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!

Heather was a joy to work with. She went above and beyond to ensure every need was met and every detail taken care of without over complicating things. You could tell right away that she was comfortable and had ample experience with cats. The peace of mind she gave us was priceless and her sweet updates were the cherry on top!

Heather did an amazing job with our fur babies! They loved her and wanted her attention when we were gone. She took care of everything and we truly didnt have to worry while we were gone for a week. She has such a wonderful personality and I'm so grateful we were able to have her come care for our kitties. If you have an opportunity to book with Heather, do it !!

Heather is amazing and my cat's love her! I think they were disappointed I wasn't her when I arrived back home. She takes great care of my cats and pays great attention to detail. She gives me great peace of mind as I never have to worry when she's taking care of my kitties!

This is the 2nd time we've had Heather take care of our kitties. She does an amazing job! Our cats love her! She gives excellent updates and terrific photos. She's responsive and somehow leaves the cat boxes clearer than when we left. We will definitely book with her again.
