Lauren and my sweet cat had a great time together. I was sent pictures and updates daily, which was reassuring and helpful. When I returned (10-day trip), the cat was momentarily disappointed to see me instead of Lauren!! They clearly had a lot of active play time, which my cat adores, so now I'm getting the side-eye if I don't play as long as she wants (made me a better pet-parent!). Overall, a very positive experience. I will gladly hire Lauren again, and I recommend her highly.

Lauren took great care of our two cats over the holidays. We loved seeing the pictures she sent every day, and we returned home to two very content kitties.

Lauren was quick to check on our boys each morning while we were away. She charmed our shy cat away from his hiding spots and took care of everything as asked. We will definitely look to book Lauren for our future trips!

Lauren is a fantastic sitter, my fur baby ran right to her when she arrived for the meet & greet (that’s always a good sign)! She provided excellent updates and was diligent about all my requests including daily medication, setting the alarm, etc. I’ll definitely be requesting her again. Thank you, Lauren!

I had the pleasure of working Lauren who went above and beyond the call of duty. She's a true animal lover who was genuinely passionate about caring for cats. Throughout the time she spent with my kittens, she provided regular updates, pictures, and videos. It was reassuring to see how content my cat was in her care, and it really put my mind at ease knowing that she was taking such good care of him. They definitely consider her to be their mother at this point! What really stood out to me was her attention to detail. She was always sure to top up thei water fountain, notified me that my auto feeder was getting low on food, and best of all replaced my auto cat litter bag (even though I didn't ask for it!). Overall, I can't speak highly enough Lauren. She is a true professional, and her dedication and passion for animal care are truly inspiring. If you're looking for someone who will treat your furry friend(s) like they're her own, look no further. Lauren is the real deal, and I highly highly highly recommend her!

Lauren is great! She really cares about your cat and will make sure they’re happy and healthy while you’re away! She gave me plenty of updates and pictures/videos, which I really appreciated.

Lauren is the best!! So glad we found her! Our CC is a stray that we've been taking care of for about a year now. She is still an outdoor cat (she'll hang inside a bit but loves her freedom) and is very shy! Aside from us Lauren is the only person she'll let pet her. Thanks for everything Lauren!! CC can't wait to see you next time :)

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 $26.00. 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.
