Cat Sitting in Wylie, TX
My husband, daughter, our 3 cats, and I moved into our house in downtown Wylie in 2017 which had cats that came with it. One of the outside cats ended up having kittens, and we decided to keep all of them! After getting mama fixed, we brought her inside too. We helped foster a litter of kittens, which ended up with a foster fail of two! Unfortunately, we lost one of our cats in May 2023. Then, we added 2 strays in December 2024. Unfortunately, again, we lost my very best friend/soul cat Clorox in February 2025. After a few months we decided to adopt a kitten who fit right in and felt like a missing piece... I've owned cats my whole life. I currently own 11 cats!

Unfortunately, again, we lost my very best friend/soul cat Clorox in February 2025. After a few months we decided to adopt a kitten who fit right in and felt like a missing piece. That's how we got to 11! We love our furry family!
My daytime job is inside sales working from home. Mornings, evenings and weekends work best for me to cat sit, but some days I could visit during the day depending on location.
Speaking of location, I'd like to stay within 30 minutes of downtown Wylie, but don't hesitate to reach out if you're further and in need! I'll see what I can do.
You can expect the basic care, plus some from me. I will feed wet and/or dry food, refresh water, clean litter boxes, sweep up around litter boxes, clean up any discovered hairballs, play with them, brush them, give treats, and give so much love. Expect several photos of your babies at each visit, because I love capturing their sweet faces and silly moments for you. I can even check your mail, bring packages in, water plants, or any other miscellaneous tasks you need to feel comfortable being away from your home.
I'm excited to meet you and my new furry friend!
Learn More About Shannon
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I have been officially cat-sitting since 2021, but I have owned cats my entire life. I have sat for many cats, some continue to be regulars! I have, and continue to learn, about each cat personality and how to work around differences if they are a little spicy. I always treat your babies just as I would my own.
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
Making a new friend! Also, being able to be that comfort for your babies while you aren't home is something I really enjoy being able to provide.
Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?
I'll be honest...they all are my favorite, but I think my very first Meowtel reservation will always hold a special spot in my heart. It was with a little old man who was very vocal and demanding. He would tell me to come feed him immediately, then after he was done eating, he would lead me to the living room where we would cuddle as long as he wanted (I have a strict rule of not being the first to get up) and then he was done and would go do something else. It was like that at every visit. He unfortunately passed, but he left his mark on my heart.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have 9 cats! In order of age and when we got them: TeddiBear(Baby Bear) BB8(Boy) L3(Cheese) Lando(Yando) Leia(Big Girl) Mama Enzo(Pie) Katherine(Baby Kat) Bagheera(Biggie Bag) Bella We also had Mookey who passed in May 2023. Then in February 2025, we lost my very best friend Clorox(Bunny).
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
Don't be afraid to ask a cat sitter to do the things exactly as you do them. I've had clients try to "simplify" certain tasks to make it easier for the sitter, but your kitty deserves the same routines they are used to! I promise we don't mind doing things a special way if it means your cat feels comfortable.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
Always have a meet and greet (unless it's an emergency and you can't) to ensure the cat parent feels comfortable and trusts me. Typically, after walking in to your house, once you show me your cat(s), I'm on the floor trying to connect and let them smell me. I like to set my purse on the ground and take my shoes off so they have something to smell without getting near me if they aren't ready. I will follow you around as you show me the "ropes" while I take notes on my phone. I will ask questions, and sometimes they might sound weird (ex: do you use dish soap or a specific sponge to wash their dishes?) But it's simply because everyone is different. I want to do things as YOU would do them. It's your home and your fur baby. I'm here to be the next best you.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I will always carefully enter and exit to ensure no cats slip through the cracks. I also "keep an eye" on the house while you're out. What I mean by that is I look through all the rooms to make sure all is right (I've had some frozen pipes and power outages during my visits in the past) and nothing is "off", while also making sure the floors are cleaned up from any kitty messes. I like to keep a light on around their food, water, and litter boxes for the nighttime, and if I'm visiting twice a day, I'll turn those lights off in the morning. I always double check that doors are locked when I leave. I like to look around outside as I leave just in case anything there seems "off" as well.
Are you usually available during holidays?
I am usually available during holidays, but I'll keep my calendar updated to say if I'm not. If it shows I'm not available, you can always message me and let me know your situation to see if it's something I can work around.
What is your favorite cat toy?
The laser pointer is always a classic and can get even the oldest baby's ears perked up. A good feather stick toy is always fun to see them jump so high!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I will just sit near them and talk to them. Try to put my hand out for them to smell me. I bring a laser light with me, so sometimes just getting them distracted helps them feel a little at ease. Also, treats...a cat usually loves treats.

Shannon is the best cat sitter. I can always count on her to take the best care of my cats while I am gone. She is great with communication and keeping us updated on everything going on with our cats after her daily visits. We were gone during an ice/snow storm and she treated my cats like her own making sure they still got taken care of even though it was difficult to get to our house during bad weather. It was greatly appreciated and makes it much easy to take trips now that I know I have her to care for our cats.

Shannon was absolutely phenomenal looking after our kitties during our 2 week international trip. She went above and beyond at every visit and I couldn’t be happier! She communicated often, sent multiple pictures and a thorough status update with each visit, and I can tell she truly cares for and enjoys spending time with our cats. She was even able to win over our shyest cat that hides from everyone! My anxiety over leaving the cats for so long was gone knowing they were in the absolute best hands. I will definitely be booking with her again for our next trip!

Shannon was a life saver for us this time. Lliterally. our flight was delayed and o reached out to see if she could make an extra visit to give our boy his meds. She didn’t hesitate and she put us at ease knowing he would be taken care of. Shannon even stayed a little longer during a storm to ensure the kitties felt safe. Shannon goes above and beyond every single time, without fail. She is a godsend!

I'm so happy I found Shannon to watch our baby girl, Kasumi. She was excellent with communication, times, and keeping Kasumi well loved and entertained. Kasumi loves to play and Shannon sent lots of videos with pictures of her being a silly happy girl. And that was much appreciated as we missed our cats little face and seeing her happy made us happy while we were away. Will absolutely be using Shannon from now on. 110% recommend booking her for your cat(s). They will be in the best hands and we'll taken care of.

Frequently Asked Questions
Reservations officially begin at 12:00 AM in the sitter's time zone on the start date. Cat Parents may cancel within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund, as long as the reservation has not yet started. After the first 24 hours, the following cancellation rules apply:
- More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.
- 24–48 hours before the reservation start date: 50% refund. The sitter will earn 50% of their planned earnings.

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.
Wylie 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!

Shannon is the absolute best and goes above and beyond expectations. She risks life and limb anytime she gives our boy his meds. 😂 This time he came to meet her towards the end of our trip. It was a nice change for her since she didn’t have to pull him out from underneath the bed. 😈 She noticed out water fountain was not working, found the circuit breaker and reset it! She even watered the flowers outside. Shannon is the very best and I am grateful every day that we found her. tThank you for being amazing Shannon!!

I'm so glad I was there when the fountain went off!! I guess I can add Electrician to my specialties. 🤣 All the blood and sore muscles are worth it to be able to help and love that sausage. ❤️

She did a great job caring for my 2 cats. I felt like I could actually be on vacation and not worry about the care they would be receiving from Shannon. One of my cats Max loves and needs a lot of attention and Shannon would actually spend the time playing with him. She kept me up to date with texts and pictures so I knew what was going on with them. Highly recommend Shannon

Thank you for your sweet review, and thank you for allowing me to love and care for them! I know your babies are happy you are home though.

Shannon is amazing! I highly recommend her services. I previously used another pet service that was mediocre compared to hers. Shannon provided the best care for my kitties that I've ever experienced. She genuinely cares about the cats and the homes they live in. I went on a five-day trip and had no worries knowing my babies were receiving the best care. Shannon provided plenty of updates and a ton of photos, and the pictures of my kitties were perfection. My cat, TJ, is 13 years old and suffers from hyperthyroidism. He requires two pills a day, every 12 hours. It's clear that Shannon is very passionate about cats, as she came to my home twice a day at the exact same time to give TJ his medication. I love her service! I also recently got a kitten to lift TJ's spirits, which has worked wonderfully. Shannon offered helpful advice for caring for the kitten and even brought some supplies. Additionally, she kindly reset the clocks in my kitchen, which I hadn’t had a chance to do after moving, and she managed to remove a stain from my counter. Overall, Shannon’s services are phenomenal!
Response from Shannon
Aw! This is such a sweet review! I thought the clocks were reset from the storm! Twice!! I'm sure TJ and Pheobe are so happy you are home. They are so sweet! Thank you so much for this review!

We love Shannon! Our two kitties are very social and dependent on routine. Shannon went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and well-cared for. Our shy boy warmed up to her almost immediately. We got great pictures and updates throughout the week to reassure us that they were happy and healthy. Shannon made sure to check the robot litter box daily, cleaned and refilled the water fountain, made sure the dry food dispenser was in working order, and fed the boys wet food each day. It gives us great peace of mind to know our boys are in such great hands while we are away.
Response from Shannon
you and your boys are the best! thank you so much!

I was beyond pleased with Shannon's personality, communication both verbally & in text and interaction with my furr babies. She managed every detail as I requested & even had to be a bit creative with getting my senior kitty to eat. Her text was filled with logistical details & heart warming kitty details that helped me be at ease being away. She brought a kitty toy to get my furr babies to come out of their hiding places & play with her. I enjoyed & felt pretty at ease at my initial meeting with Shannon. My kitties were happy when i got home, but everything looked like I had been home. If we need another pet sitter, she will be my 1st choice. Thank You Shannon for loving on my babies like they were yours!

I know how nervous you were about your babies being cared for, and it makes me so happy I was able to help relieve some of those nerves! Thank you for your kind words and for trusting me. ❤️

Shannon is the complaint package. We have used her several times for local trips as we were concerned about anyone being able to give our boy meds twice a day. Shannon has been the greatest gift to our family! She is consistent and trustworthy and truly loves our kitties… even the challenging one. We had our first trip out of state where we could not quickly get home. She did not dissapoint and she has given us the gift of travel back! we are forever grateful to her! THANK YOU SHANNON!!! Merda & Pazzo love you!

I can’t say enough about Shannon. our boy can be VERY spicy at times and she never fails to get him his medication, even when he fights her. I would never leave our kitties in the care of anyone else. I trust Shannon and will continue to use her as long as she will have us.

he might be spicy, but he's such a good boy too. thank you for always trusting me!

Incredible sitter 💕!! Shannon went above and beyond every single day she watched over our kitties. She sent incredibly detailed reports and tons of awesome high-quality pictures every visit. Not only did she do the basics perfectly (litter-robot/food/water), but she fixed things that were askew, grabbed mail/put it into a great spot away from kitties, and asked questions when something seemed out of place. She also spent TONS of time playing with the kitties, both actively and with puzzles, which is amazing given that our kitties our slow to warm up and come out with new people! She even gave us advice on what to do when we found a stray cat on our trip 😂💕. Shannon is a true cat lover, incredibly thorough and I truly can’t imagine a better sitter! We felt very lucky to have her watch our kitties :). Thank you so much!!

Shannon is phenomenal. My older and antisocial female cat was recently diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and has to take medication twice a day. I was very anxious having to leave her for a trip. Enter Shannon, who was able to get her to warm up enough to take her medication and even show herself, albeit from afar. Shannon was also great with her updates and general kitty care--and the photos were the highlight of my day. My other cat is super friendly and made up for miss sass, enjoying all the love Shannon had to offer. I highly recommend Shannon!

Our boy needs oral meds twice a day. He hides from anyone but us, so it has been hard finding a solution that will allow us to travel. I am so grateful we found Shannon! Our shy girl came out immediately to meet her and our boy followed quickly. she gave his meds at our meet and greet and we promptly scheduled two visits back to back to see how it went. Shannon was successful both times and sent lots of photos and updates, making us very comfortable that are babies were in good hands. Our boy has epilepsy and has several minor focal seizures each month. Shannon observed one in process, handled it and immediately let us know. He recovers within moments and she stayed a little longer to make sure he was okay. She played and sent lots of pics of both kitties. I have already booked Shannon for for our first getaway since he was diagnosed in 2021 and I look forward to taking the step to get back normal life and travel. Shannon, thank you for taking such great care of our babies! You are a lifesaver!

This is our 8th time with Shannon. She is awesome with our cat, sends lots of pictures and playfulness reports, and pays attention to his needs: plays when he wants to play, cuddles when he needs cuddles. When it's very hot outside, she is proactive to put paw butter on his paws and sends pictures of his shiny happy beans!

Shannon is AMAZING! She did two visits per day, for ten days, while we were out of town. Two of our three cats require twice-daily medication, and Shannon was diligent about making sure they got their meds, even if they weren't being totally cooperative. We got lots of pictures and updates, including shots of the cats getting some extra love. She was even kind enough to shut off our water for us (and the shutoff is NOT easy to get to) when our pipes froze during a cold snap, and then brought bottled water for the cats for the rest of her visits. Cannot recommend her highly enough.

Shannon was awesome with our cat! She visited 2xday, 20 mins each visit. She sent pictures & updates. He is normally skittish around new people. She made him feel comfortable and he warmed up well: he came to her call and got pets & brushing. He was in great spirits when we returned. So grateful!

In past reviews, I think I’ve already used every amazing adjective to describe Shannon and how well she takes care of our senior cats. Suffice to say, we trust her implicitly with our elderly fur babies (and our old, temperamental house). We make our travel plans based on her availability - Shannon is a treasure!
Response from Shannon
thank you so much! I really do love you all! you guys are amazing clients. ❤️

Shannon was absolutely fantastic. She as above and beyond, even arranging a separate visit to meet our lil one before we left town. Her love for animals is very obvious, and we felt like we had someone him who actually cared for him, rather than just someone fulfilling a paid service. We will be calling Shannon for our future needs! Thank you!

I feel like Shannon is a member of the family now! After 3 trips in 3 months our kitties have come to love her and are no longer suspicious of the person that comes over when their parents are not home. Our special needs boy used to hide under the bed and Shannon had to find a way to get him out and give him his meds twice a day. Now he comes out on his own and even sat and watched her leave with a “where are you going” look on his face. Shannon is amazing and I’ve are grateful for her!
Response from Shannon
I think he wants a sleepover next time 😜 I am so glad he finally doesn't think of me as the evil pill lady. 🥰

This is the second time Shannon has watched my cats and she was just as wonderful as the first time. She provides fantastic and detailed updates and pictures of my cats, even the shy, bratty one. She really cares for them and goes above and beyond. I'm so appreciative.

this is our second time working with Shannon and she is simply amazing. our boy needs meds twice a day and can be a bit of a…. brat. she worked with him and his sister to make them comfortable. more importantly, we were comfortable and able to take our first get away together in 4 years. the photos and updates were so detailed, and it is so clear how much she loves cats. Shannon will be our go to cat sitter as long as she will have us.

This was the second time Shannon watched my baby while I was away, and she was just as amazing!!! She made sure he got tons of love and that all of his care needs were taken care of, so I didn’t have to worry at all while we were away. She was so good when his chin got a little bit puffy, she made sure to keep an eye on it and send me tons of updates so that I knew he was okay. Always so impressed and thankful for Shannon so that I know my boy is taken care of!!

Shannon watched our cat Peanut for 4 days, visiting 2xday. She did a great job: she updated us after each visit, including pictures and a playfulness report. I know he was well loved because he was in good spirits/health when we returned. She also tended to our plants which was a blessing.

I can not give enough stars for how amazing Shannon is. She really is an amazing person and definitely went above and beyond to take care of my cats while I was away.My updates were everything I could have asked for and she got the absolute best pictures of my babies I will actually cherish forever! Thanks to her I actually enjoyed my vacation with my family instead of constantly speaking out loud how worried I was or ready to get home to them. Shannon gave me a peace of mind and I seriously could not write enough words to explain how great she is. I hope she never movea away because I definitely needed someone EXACTLY like her to take care of my beloved fur babies!!!! 🐈⬛🐈😻

Shannon did such a fantastic job taking care of my baby. I’m usually pretty anxious leaving my cat home alone for several days, but she sent so many great photos and detailed updates so that I didn’t have to worry about him at all while I was out of town. She made sure that everything was taken care of and gave him lots of love - he warmed up to her so quickly!! I would absolutely recommend Shannon to anyone in need of a pet sitter!

Shannon is amazing…I’m so grateful we’ve found her. We’ve got older kitties with chronic health issues who need oral and topical medications twice a day. Shannon is a champ at giving them their meds, and terrific about keeping us posted on how they’re eating, etc. We can travel with peace of mind knowing our fur kids are getting outstanding care. We appreciate the detailed updates, many pictures, and especially Shannon’s willingness to graciously roll with whatever surprises our senior cats and old house throw at her. : )
Response from Shannon
thank you so much! I love those girls, even if they don't love me back, lol! thank you guys for being awesome!

This was the second time Shannon looked after our cats, and as before, she did a wonderful job. She lavished attention on them, handled their meds, and sent frequent updates with lots of photos. Shannon is also gracious enough to look after our plants and mail / packages while we're away. Can't recommend her enough.
