I have experience with young kittens too as I Austin Pets Alive fostering when they need help with overflow!
I do my best to meet cats on their level, never being pushy and respecting their boundaries and needs in their space. I believe in building that trust through body language, treats, and offering lots of distanced play (lazers, string toys, etc.) to let cats relax around me.

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
over a decade- I cat sit part time and foster cats as well. This is a big source of my general income and I have a wide variety of experience with elder cats and kittens alike.
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I've had cats my whole life and it's great to meet other folks who enjoy their company too. I love getting to know so many cat personalities and letting cat owners know their family members are being cared for well while they're gone for a bit.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I've got 4! Etienne is the old man of the house, Felix and Gaston are Siamese brothers, and little Henri is the big baby of the gang.

everything was great. I had some unconventional requests and he honored them. William made it every day around the same time and took care of the little girls. I'll probably reach out again next time I travel

William is the ultimate cat daddy! He meets cats where they are, and lets the kitties dictate how interactions will go. He has a big heart and cares for all critters with kindness and intelligence. I have trusted him with our 3, and will do so again. He’s also great at capturing their photos if you request.

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!
