I'm Alayna | Cat Sitting in Austin, TX
Hello! My name is Alayna, and my cat Specks and I live in the North Austin area. I’ve been a cat sitter on Meowtel since January 2022, and after cat sitting full time for almost 2 years, I’m scaling back as I explore new career options. That being said, I’m always looking for new clients that need flexible, anytime visits that I can fit into my new busier schedule. I have experience taking care of cats with special medical needs, including administering ear drops, inhalers, oral drops and pills, as well as topical ointments. I find that even the most stubbornly shy cats tend to warm up to me! I tend to get booked quickly, so my availability can look a little closed off. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me directly before booking, as I can often be flexible depending on your needs. During the past few years of cat sitting with Meowtel, I've pet sit for homes with multiple cats, and I'm great at focusing on the little details th...

Alayna's Reviews
Don
Alayna is amazing! She has been my catsitter for the last 2+ years and my cat loves her.
Gillian
As always, it’s so great to have Alayna take care of our sweet girl. Alayna provides great updates and our cat loves her; we’ve been fortunate to be able to have Alayna care for our cat on other occasions. Thank you for the great care you give our sweet girl.

Alayna is my favorite cat sitter, hands down. I always feel so much better leaving my senior cat, Pearl, under her care. Pearl’s litter box habits have changed due to some kidney issues, and she’s very picky about getting it cleaned multiple times a day. Alayna always does a great job keeping it as empty and tidy as possible. Pearl is also pretty unfriendly to strangers, but will still hang out in a room with Alayna. This may sound like it isn’t a big deal, but it is! It took a year to get her to do that with my parents. Alayna gives thorough updates of every visit and takes great photos to let me know my baby is okay. She also watched my parents’ cat and went above and beyond to help look out for a different neighborhood cat who’d gotten loose.

Alayna is awesome and I will continue to contact her first whenever I am in need of a catsitter.

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 $29.00. 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.
