I'm Claire | Cat Sitting in Austin, TX
I grew up with cats and have always had a special place in my heart for them! I volunteered with FurKids for several years in the geriatric feline department. I have also been a cat sitter for several different families over the past decade. I am happy to sit for cats with any needs, whether they need lots of playtime, various medications, or additional attention. I have experience administering medication for asthma, epilepsy, and AIDS as well. I am comfortable administering pills and/or shots for your cats as well. I work for a General Contractor in person from about 8:30-4:30 Monday-Friday. I am happy...

Claire is wonderful! Our kitties are super shy and Claire has managed to build trust with each visit. So grateful for her care of them. Appreciate her updates and pics!

Claire was incredibly thoughtful and took great care of my cat. She even managed to charm her out of hiding on the first day, which is a great accomplishment!
Linda
Claire has taken care of my cat several times now. She does a good job and has even made friends with my skittish boy. I have no hesitation in recommending Claire.

Frequently Asked Questions
The average price for a cat sitter is $28.00.
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.
