“What sort of philosophers are we, who know absolutely nothing of the origin and destiny of cats?” — Henry David Thoreau Hi, I’m Altina!☺️ Should you decide to book my services, I will go above and beyond in my quest to become a stunt double for you in your cat’s eyes. 🐾🫶🏻My priorities while you’re away include ensuring peace of mind all around, and of course providing the best care. I am reliable, attentive, responsible, straightforward, and very no-nonsense. My care is tailored to each cat’s needs and personality, and I would love look after, guard, and pamper yours. During each visit, I send regular updates along with photos and videos. 🔶 A bit about me: I’m a proud cat mom myself and I know how important it is to ensure that our babies are safe and well taken care of while we’re away. I’m here to help make that transition as smooth as possible for you & your cat. 🔶 I have 20+ years experience with cats of all ages and personalities, be they social, reserved, kittens, senior cats, etc..

Could not have had a better experience with meow-tel and Altina! I feel fortunate to have met her and am looking forward to booking her again. She is courteous and highly professional, so loving with cats and provides the best of care. Receiving her updates was a fun highlight during my trip - my two were absolutely smitten with her!
Adam
Altina was amazing! She communicated everything, sent us updates, pictures and exceeded any expectations. She made sure Lucie was well taken care of while we were gone. I would give her 6/5 stars if I could.
Lauren
Altina was an amazing cat sitter! I highly recommend her help next time you need someone to watch your kitties. She went above and beyond in caring for and entertaining our two 4-year-old cats. She loved our outgoing kitty Ziggy and charmed our super shy kitty Star. I felt sure our kitties were well taken care of while we were away. We enjoyed the updates and the cute photos. Altina’s help truly helped us enjoy our family vacation ❤️She is a cat whisperer! 🥰

Frequently Asked Questions
Austin cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. 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. Meowtel sitters 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 we'll match you with the best options which are close by.
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.
