Hello and welcome! 😻 My name is Callahan.

Though I do not have a cat of my own at the moment (my sweet blue-eyed Bella passed of old age a few years back), I LOVE spending time with my clients’ sweet furballs. I think cats are great because they all have such unique personalities and adorable quirks. Elderly cats are my absolute favorite, and I have experience administering a wide variety of medications (including pills and other oral medications, ear ointments, eye drops, subcutaneous fluids, insulin injections, and inhalers). That being said, I adore kitties of all ages and abilities!

I service a variety of neighborhoods including Downtown, Barton Hills, Zilker, East Austin, Central Austin, Hyde Park, Mueller, Westlake Hills, and more.

Thanks for considering me to be your sitter - hope I get to meet you and your sweet cat(s) soon. ☺️

All are welcome here. 🩵🩷🤍

Learn More About Callahan

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

I have been a cat sitter with Meowtel since August of 2021. I quickly fell in love with the job. Cat sitting has become my primary job at the moment - I just can’t get enough! 😸 I have met so many incredible kitties (and humans!) through this platform, and I look forward to many more years of sitting.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love being able to put my clients at ease and make bonds with their kitties over time. Every cat has such a unique personality and set of likes and dislikes, and I feel so rewarded when I start to really connect with a specific cat. All of their little signals of trust and love, such as slow blinking and finger kisses, make me feel so warm and fuzzy inside. I’ve found that I tend to work especially well with shy kitties as I am able to read their needs and give them the space they need to warm up to me.

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

My advice is to simply go with your gut. I have met so many amazing fellow sitters from Meowtel, and I would feel comfortable trusting any of them with my own fur babies. Send a few messages back and forth with your potential sitter, and they should be happy to answer any questions and get to know you. Since each reservation comes with a free meet and greet session, you’ll be able to rest assured that your home and cat(s) are in the purrfect hands. ❤️ I hope you’ll book with me, but you really can’t go wrong on this meowvelous platform!

Repeat customer here… I can’t say enough good things about Callahan and the quality of service she provides. She is always consistent and extremely trustworthy every single time I leave my cat in her care. My older boy Zeus needs medication twice a day, and is very picky when it comes to the food he eats. He also requires a laxative mixed with his nulo treat once a day on top of his medication. Callahan takes care of it all without any issues. I never worry when I’m out of town because I know my boy is in the best hands possible. On top of all this, she always keeps the litter super clean, refreshes his water fountain with clean water, and entices him to play even when he may not feel like it. It’s hard to keep my older boy active, but Callahan manages to get him to play as much as possible every time she visits. Callahan is also very detailed with her daily updates, and provides such wonderful pictures of my boy when I’m away. it’s always so wonderful to see how he’s doing and get updates during every single visit. It truly takes so much of the worry away when you can see how your pet is doing via detailed pictures and updates. I can’t say enough good things about the service Callahan provides. Oh and did I mention she does Sub Q fluids in case your cat needs them? She’s absolutely wonderful! I’ll continue to be a repeat customer for as long as she’ll provide her services!

Callahan really pays attention to details and goes above and beyond what you would even expect. I have hired Callahan several times now but the kind of service I am talking about is when she arrived to my place early, before a big storm, and stayed with my kitties and comforted them until the storm passed. The storm was so bad that there was a leak at the window sill right by my work station. Callahan unplugged everything and wiped up the water and left it dry and spotless. What a relief to have this kind of service while you are away! When she sleeps over she snuggles with my babies all night just like I do. I know not everyone is comfortable with pets in the bed but my cats sleep ON me and Callahan lets them do that too.💕 I feel so comfortable and relaxed when Callahan is with my kitties. My kitties absolutely love her too! They always greet her at the door and demand pets and to lay on her. I mean…what more can you ask for?!

If you want the best of the best for your cat, look no further than Callahan. after searching a long time for the proper care for our cats, we are pleased to say we’ve found our forever cat caretaker. I’m very specific and need special care for our seniors, and that puts a lot of stress on us when we travel. When we found Callahan, all the stress disappeared. She not only follows my requests perfectly, is super reliable and always on time, but the bigger thing is how my cats react to her. Callahan talk to our cats by name and they just gravitate to her. One of our cats is a huge attention hog, and Callahan spends the time giving him the attention he needs. I HIGHLY recommend Callahan. You will never worry again about wonderful care for your cats. We are so grateful.

We love Callahan! She really takes the time to help our shy senior girl feel comfortable in our absence, and she sent us detailed updates and tons of photos of their playtime. This was our second time booking her, and it won’t be our last.

I think our cats like Callahan more than they like us. Even the one who normally cowers in fear around new people comes out for her. She takes good care of our cats and gives us detailed updates including photos. Highly recommend

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

Austin cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.

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!
