I'm Olivia
Cat Sitting in Austin, TX
Whether your cat is bold and outgoin... Hi! I’m Olivia, a calm and cat-loving sitter who believes that trust with a cat isn’t earned overnight. It’s earned quietly, patiently, and on their terms. When I enter a new cat’s home, I know I’m a stranger in their safe space. That’s why I always start by giving them time and room to approach me when they’re ready.
Whether your cat is bold and outgoing or cautious and independent, I respect their boundaries and meet them where they are. My focus is on making sure they feel comfortable, seen, and cared for while you’re away. I offer a peaceful, predictable presence, and a lap with lots of love if they’re ready for it!
Let me know your cat’s routine, quirks, and favorite toys (and treats, if allowed!).
Learn More About Olivia
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
What I love most about cat sitting is getting to know each cat’s unique personality. Whether the cats are playful, shy, chatty, or just love a sunny windowsill. It’s so fun learning what makes them feel comfortable and happy, and if they’re up for it, I’m always grateful for a cuddle or two. There’s so much love to go around, and I believe every kitty deserves to feel safe, cared for, and adored while their person is away.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Since I was six years old (now twenty-one), I have always owned a cat. From elderly to baby kittens, I have had them all! Currently, a cat named Nugget runs my house and has a huge personality. He is almost two and absolutely LOVES to play and cuddle. Egg Puffs are his favorite treats and he loves to play with a santa wand (he’s a strange boy).
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Most of the cats I’ve cared for in my life were strays who found their way to me. They were very shy, cautious, and unsure at first. With time, patience, and a gentle approach, they slowly began to trust me. There’s something truly so special about earning a timid cat’s affection, and I’ve learned that the quiet moments: sitting nearby, letting them observe, and offering a cozy bed, are often what build the strongest bonds. Those nervous strays became the most loving companions who knew they were safe, warm, and home.

Olivia was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of my two cats, Poppy and Roman, while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She sent thoughtful daily updates with lots of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel connected to my cats even while I was traveling. It was clear from the photos and videos that she genuinely spent quality time with them—playing with them, giving them attention, and making sure they felt loved and comfortable. Olivia was reliable, communicative, and treated my home and my cats with genuine care. I came home to two happy, relaxed cats, which says everything. I would trust her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable cat sitter. Thank you, Olivia, for taking such wonderful care of Poppy and Roman!

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!

Olivia is an exceptional cat sitter, reliable, kind, and incredibly attentive. She’s looked after my cat, Nugget, for both short and extended stays, and I always feel completely at ease knowing he’s in her care. She sends regular updates and photos, and Nugget absolutely adores her. I can’t recommend her enough!
