I know how stressful it can be to leave your fur babies at home when you travel, and I'm here to take the best care of your cats and put your mind at ease so you can enjoy your trip 😸.

Welcome to my page! I'm an Austin-based cat "meowm" of two tabbies who would love to care for your precious kitties while you're away. I know how stressful it can be to leave your fur babies at home when you travel, and I'm here to take the best care of your cats and put your mind at ease so you can enjoy your trip 😸.

In addition to being a pet owner myself, I have over three years of catsitting experience. I enjoy meeting each new cat, learning their personalities, and keeping them healthy, comfortable, and entertained while their parents are away. Please message me with any questions, and I look forward to meeting you and your kitties soon!

Other details:
• 💊 Experienced in administering oral and topical medications.
• ▶️ Playtime is important! Kitties can get bored and restless when left alone, so I aim to fit in as much activity as possible during my visits!
• 🔑 Communication is key. I'll always promptly follow a visit with a detailed check-in message and, of course, lots of pictures!
• 🪴 Got houseplants? Happy to water as needed, as well as check mail or perform any other housesitting tasks as requested.

Learn More About Robyn

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

I started cat-sitting for friends about 3 years ago, and loved it! That experience prompted me to apply to sit for Meowtel, and I've really enjoyed the opportunities to meet all sorts of cats and cat people since. In addition to cat-sitting and my two kitties at home, I also recently fostered a couple adorable shelter kittens. Getting them socialized and healthy enough to adopt out to their forever homes has been an incredibly rewarding way to give back.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I get satisfaction from giving cat parents peace of mind while traveling, knowing their kitties are well-taken care of while they're gone. Additionally, I love getting to know new cats and figuring out their personalities and quirks!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I let the cat set the frequency and pace of our interactions. Especially when we're just getting to know each other, I will sit on the floor and let them approach me, speaking to them in a soft, soothing voice. I offer a hand for them to check out if they're curious. Cats go at their own pace and sometimes it just takes time. I never rush a hesitant kitty and just trust that with time, they'll get more comfortable with me.

Robyn was the purrfect cat sitter for our two shy kitties! She gave us updates every day, kept their water and food fresh, and even managed to stealthily and gently check on them where they like to chill under the bed. I was able to relax on vacation knowing they were in such good hands!

Robyn was amazing!! Definitely recommend and will most definitely use her again. Sent pictures and videos every day and went above and beyond to troubleshoot an issue with automatic litter box. So grateful my cat was taken care of with such thoughtful care!

Robyn was absolutely amazing! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ She watched my cats while I was away and made me feel completely at ease the entire time. She checked in regularly, sent the sweetest photos, and treated them with so much care that it truly felt like they were in the best hands. My boys adored her! I’m usually a little anxious leaving them, but Robyn’s professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals gave me total peace of mind. I came home to happy, relaxed cats — which says everything. I can’t recommend her enough. If you need someone you can trust wholeheartedly with your pets, Robyn is the one! 🐾💛

Robyn was lovely and kind. She set up a FaceTime meeting during a time that worked for both of us prior to accepting to make sure it was a good fit (which I definitely appreciate!) Max and Ari were so happy to have her there and my building is challenging to enter at times but Robyn took care to make sure she could get in and everything was seamless. Highly recommend booking Robyn for your kitty needs!!!!

Robyn was my cat-sitter for my first ever reservation on Meowtel. I had to leave my one-year old gray kitten for five days and Robyn took great care of him! She is professional, communicative, and very caring. She sent me daily updates and photos and took careful notes about my cat’s behavior, needs, and feeding routine. I plan on contacting her again for future trips! I highly recommend Robyn to be your cat-sitter.

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!
