I'm Alayna | Cat Sitting in Austin, TX
Hi there! I’m Alayna, a Meowtel sitter since 2022. I live in North Austin with my curious cat, Specks. Over the past few years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for cats of all kinds—from playful kittens to seniors with special medical needs. I’m experienced with everything from oral meds and ear drops to inhalers and topical treatments. I’ve also looked after birds, rabbits, and even a bearded dragon! For nearly two years, I did pet sitting full time. These days, I’m working weekdays in a new role, so I’m currently accepting repeat clients only, and on a more limited basis. That said, I’m often able to accommodate flexible, non-peak visits—especially in North Austin and Round Rock. If my calendar looks closed, feel free to reach out anyway—I might still be able to help, especially if your needs are a bit more flexible! One of my favorite parts of this job is earning the trust...

Alayna's Reviews
Katy
Alayna is wonderful! Our kitty is extremely shy and wary of strangers, but she actually played with Alayna AND let her pet her a bit! 🤯 We received loads of photos and updates, and Alayna was very proactive with her care. We’ll definitely book her again!
Jessica
Alayna has watched our kitties multiple times and has done a wonderful job each time. We always feel comfortable knowing our cats are in her hands.
Eliza
Alayna is always my #1 choice to take care of my cat Theo when we're away. He can be a little leery of strangers, but she's built so much trust with him! She provides cute photo updates with every visit and follows care instructions to the letter. I feel safe leaving Theo in Alayna's care.
Chris
Alayna was great. We've always been impressed with her care for our felines.
Margarie
Alayna was such an amazing sitter for my two kitties! She took time to play with them and to make sure that both cats ate their meals. She's awesome!

Frequently Asked Questions
Austin cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $27.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
