I'm Gisela | Cat Sitting in Austin, TX

hi cat parents! I love cats because of how silly they can be! Since I am currently a cat sitter and have 2 cats of my own, there is never a day a cat doesn’t make me laugh or smile. I currently own 2 girl cats that are ameowzing! I love cat sitting because it provides me with the pleasure of meeting other cats and caring for them part time. I don’t have room in my house for anymore cats and being able to cat sit provides me the pleasure of hanging out with new cats daily. I live near South Congress strip. I have 100+ visits of experience doing drop-ins in Austin. In addition to that, I have years of experience caring for my own cats and friends' and families' cats. I will care for your cat as if it were my own whether that be to play, feed, or administer medication I am there. I know all cats have their different needs and do what I can to make sure they feel like you never left. I used to o...

this is the third time I’ve reserved Gisela because she is consistent and I always return to a happy Kitty! this last time I was gone for a week so I was worried my kitty would be lonely but with Gisela’s daily updates and playtime with her I felt so much better.

Gisela’s meet and greet went well and all tasks were completed daily. She sent daily photos, videos and updates. Our cat seemed happy when we came home.

once again I was so happy that I was able to get Gisela to watch my kitty while I was away for a week. I feel so much better knowing she is getting played with and lots of pets right at home.

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

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 $29.00. 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.
