Hello,
I’m Autumn, a natural born cat lover who loves to spoil my own kitties and others! Respecting the routine, space, and preferences of your kitty is my top priority. During the visit I will ensure that I am following feeding schedules, maintaining a sparkling litter box, providing stimulating play, and the right amount of accepted cuddles. Using a calm and patient demeanor, I want to make your kitty as comfortable as possible and give them ample time to relax. I pride myself on paying close attention to details provided by the kitty parent and tailoring each visit to the unique needs and preferences. You can rest assured that your furbaby is in the best hands. While you’re away, they will be treated like the king/queen of the jungle!

Learn More About Autumn

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have a tuxedo cat named, Boojum. I have had him for almost a year and he is the sweetest boy! I had a senior cat that recently passed and when my heart couldn’t stand the empty feeling, I saw Boojum and knew he was the one that would fill that missing piece! I always feel that a home needs a cat because they bring so much personality and warmth. Waking up to Boojum and having him snuggle against me or run across my legs with the zoomies is always a highlight to my day!

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

My advice would be communication and expectations are critical. There is no such thing as being too tedious or specific. Including as much details is necessary because having someone watch an extension of your family is a HUGE deal. Ensuring your cat is well taken care of and having open communication with updates or questions is reassuring and important.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Safety is my top priority when caring for a cat. I always take note of how the home is secured when I enter. I want to ensure that when exiting, all points of entry are locked. I always ensure that every cat is accounted for when I enter and leave. Cats can hide is precarious places and ensuring that they are not trapped or in a room is critical. Monitoring food, water, and litter box usage are important as this can show insight to the cat being stressed or not feeling well. If there is an alarm system, I will ensure this is set and will communicate entering/exiting with the homeowners.

We have searched long and hard for a perfect cat sitter for our boys and Autumn sure is it! She sent lots of updates and was very detailed oriented! Our very vocal cat typically has a lot to say when he hasn’t had enough socialization while we are away - this was not the case this time! He and his brother were content and happily greeted us when we got home but it seemed just like a typical day for them which is exactly what we wanted! Highly recommend Autumn!

I had the pleasure of hiring Autumn to care for my cat Shady while I was away on vacation, and I couldn't be happier with her service. Shady is currently undergoing treatment for cancer, which requires extra attention and care. Autumn went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled perfectly—from feeding Shady on time each day to providing plenty of comfort and playtime. She also provided updates on every visit which helped put my mind at ease while I was away from my baby girl. I was so relieved knowing Shady was in safe, capable hands, and it was heartwarming to hear how quickly Shady warmed up to her. She loved her! I highly recommend Autumn for any cat sitting needs and we definitely plan to work with her again in the near future. She is reliable, compassionate, and truly exceptional. Thank you so much again for everything, Autumn!

I had Autumn take care of my two cats when I went to Atlanta for the Thanksgiving holiday. She did a great job and I felt extremely comfortable with leaving them in Autumn’s care. She took notes when she came to the Meet and Greet of everything I asked her to do. She contacted me on a daily basis and kept me advised on how the cats were doing each day and sent some pictures as well. Everything was clean when I came home. She was extremely reliable and I would highly recommend her if you need a pet sitter. I would not hesitate to use her again.

Autumn was incredibly reliable and professional while taking care of our cat during our vacation. She even came by beforehand to go over all the details and to meet our cat, which we really appreciated. She is very thoughtful, pays attention to everything, and was so loving and caring with our little boy. I will definitely book Autumn again and can highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. 🐾💛

We had an amazing experience with Autumn! Autumn was incredibly reliable and communicative, sending frequent updates and photos throughout the entire week, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our cats were getting attentive, thoughtful care, and we felt completely confident they were in great hands. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend!

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!
