I'm Shauna

Cat Sitting in Morgantown, WV

Hello fellow cat parents! My name is Shauna, and I'm a compassionate, detail-oriented cat sitter based in Morgantown, WV. I'd be honored to keep your cat(s) safe, cared for, and comfortable while you're away!

I serve Morgantown and the surrounding areas (including Fairmont, Fairview, Masontown, Mount Morris, Point Marion, Reedsville, Rivesville, and Waynesburg). If you're looking for a reliable, experienced cat sitter in this region, you've found one!

I've been a devoted cat parent and occasional sitter for over twenty years, caring for cats of all ages—from playful kittens to dignified super-seniors. My cats' safety, comfort, and happiness are always a top priority for me when I leave town, and I treat your fur kids with the same level of care. Right now, I'm servant to two beloved fur kids, Anathema and Aziraphale, who keep me well-trained and remind me daily just how unique every cat's personality can be.

How I conduct visits depends entirely on your cat's personality and your detailed instructions...

Right now, I'm servant to two beloved fur kids, Anathema and Aziraphale, who keep me well-trained and remind me daily just how unique every cat's personality can be.

How I conduct visits depends entirely on your cat's personality and your detailed instructions. I am organized and prepared to follow your routine precisely to keep your cat(s) healthy, happy, and well-cared for. I typically take care of business first: refreshing food and water, scooping the litter box, and a quick tidy up of any kitty-related messes. Then it’s time for companionship! For outgoing cats, there's brushing, playtime with toys, and plenty of pets. For shy or cautious kitties, I’ll give them space, often sitting quietly in an open spot to read for a bit so they can approach me on their own terms. Even if your cat prefers little interaction, I will always try my best to get eyes on the appropriate number of whiskered noses to ensure everyone is safe and accounted for. Eventually, I hope there is enough trust for a gentle pet or a well-deserved (parent approved!) treat!

One of my specialties is senior cat care and cats with chronic health concerns. I have years of experience dealing with issues like kidney disease, liver disease, anemia, and hyperthyroidism. I am comfortable with complex medication routines. I am skilled in giving subcutaneous fluids, pills (like Denamarin, methimazole, mirtazapine, and antibiotics), compounded liquid medication, and injections, as well as syringe feeding adult cats. If your feline companion requires extra medical attention or just consistent, loving care, you can feel confident I will follow their health routine meticulously.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions. I can’t wait to meet you and your feline family!

Learn More About Shauna

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

I've been cat sitting for friends, family, and colleagues for over 20 years. I have been hiring cat sitters since my first cat, Hermione, who I adopted in 2003. I've had so much luck finding great sitters. I can only hope to be that for someone else!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

The cats, of course! All cats are unique, beautiful, independent little creatures. I love learning about their individual personalities. Few things feel more rewarding than gaining the trust of a shy, timid cat.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I house and cat sat for a family while I was living in Seattle. The family insisted I would never see her. I had her hanging out with me and sitting in my lap by the end of the week. Pippi was the sweetest little senior girl. We enjoyed sitting outside in the shade together.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Of course! My current pair are Aziraphale (tabby) and Anathema (void). Aziraphale is a rescued street kitty, born probably Jan/Feb 2020. He's my COVID kitty. Anathema was adopted from a foster family and was born around New Year's Day 2022. They have very different, delightful personalities. Aziraphale is extroverted, active, and eager to meet new people. Anathema is introverted, a bit more cautious, and likes her alone time. They are both talkers. My previous pair were Hermione (white, dob around Jan 2003) and Maynard (tuxedo, dob around May 2005). They were both from Seattle and each lived to be about 17. My soul kitties, the three of us went through so very much together. I miss them daily.

We were so lucky to find Shauna here. She provided excellent, attentive care to our cat, who gets lonely when we're away. Shauna spent lots of time with her and sent me thorough daily updates that included pics and video. I felt reassured that the cat was not only safe, but happy, which eased my mind and allowed me to enjoy our vacation. I would absolutely recommend Shauna to cat sit. I will definitely book her again.

Shauna is an exceptional cat caretaker. From the moment she started caring for our cats, it was clear how attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely loving she is. She consistently sent detailed updates, photos, and videos, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. What really sets Shauna apart is the care behind her communication — her messages were not just check-ins, they reflected how closely she paid attention to each cat’s behavior, mood, and routine. It was apparent she genuinely cared for and treated our cats as if they were her own. Knowing our cats were safe, comfortable, and so well cared for made all the difference. We could not recommend Shauna more highly and will absolutely be using her again. She is dependable, compassionate, and an absolute gem.

Shauna was wonderful with my (slightly spicy) cat, continually working to get her to warm up through her magic touch. She sent pictures and videos of my girl and played with her every visit. She made me feel so much better about being away, I never had to worry about a thing. Eternally grateful!

My kitties really enjoyed making a new friend in Shauna while we were away. She sent very detailed reports with photos and videos and everyone looked so happy. She handled their food motivation well and made sure everyone ate separately. Additionally, she made sure everyone felt some love by playing, brushing and petting everyone individually. We would 100% have Shauna come back! :)

Shauna is always great with my kitties! They can be a handful, but she is always patient and takes time to play with them and give them love while we are gone.

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.

Morgantown 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!
