Learn More About Emma

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

I grew up around cats. We always had cats over dogs in my household, so I’ve had direct experience with them from an early age. I’m 41 now, and aside from the two years after my beloved cat Mikey passed, I’ve rarely been without a cat in my life. I’ve frequently stepped in to sit for my friends’ cats, and have experience from the shy and hidden to the fierce and vicious.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Providing peace of mind for anxious cat parents. I know how nervous I get when I’m out of town and my kiddens are in a stranger’s hands. I love being able to assure them that their babies are well-taken care of and will be happy to see them when they get home.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

We have three now! They’re siblings and they fight like it. We have two girls and a boy. The girls are tortie, and the boy is orange; his name is Habanero, the smaller girl is Coco, and her sister, the leader of the siblings, is Sally Reed. (She’s named after a character from a TV show. Both are total divas).

Emma is fantastic! She came over to meet our kitties before our trip and watched them for nearly two weeks! She sent extremely detailed updates with photos and videos. She took every mess and curveball our cats threw out her like a champ - including one of our cats that decided he was too good for the litter box while we were gone 🤦🏽‍♀️ It was so clear to see that our kitties grew to love and appreciate her! We have very needy cats 😅, and it was evident that she gave special attention to each of them. I’m so grateful to Emma for caring for our babies. It meant the world to know they were in such great hands. We’ll definitely be using Emma again in the future! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Emma was wonderful with our cat and sent a lot of pictures. Our cat made a big mess with his feeder and she cleaned up the mischief and documented the crime scene. She is a great communicator and is super sweet.

Emma was incredibly patient with our less-than-friendly cat. She is a good problem solver and communicator. We appreciated her photos and videos too.

my cat is kind of a demon but Emma handled her visits really well. She executed our tactics to calm down the cat and showed great patience with my aggressive cat while getting all the jobs done. I would continue working with Emma again in the future!

Frequently Asked Questions

Austin cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $25.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
