I'm Nicole
Cat Sitting in Austin, TX
When Iām caring for your companions I do my best to stick to your (theirs) regular feeding schedule and other than that, I keep it pretty simple. I maintain the litter box, provide new water every visit, administer any medications if needed, take a proof of life pic and then I sit back and let them come to me, if they want... Heeeyyyy! Iām Nicci! I have loved and cared for cats literally my entire life. I understand greatly the comfort cats need to be in their own homes and also, letās be real, itās not so easy to pick up/cage a cat and itās things, travel with them, and place them in a new environment.
When Iām caring for your companions I do my best to stick to your (theirs) regular feeding schedule and other than that, I keep it pretty simple. I maintain the litter box, provide new water every visit, administer any medications if needed, take a proof of life pic and then I sit back and let them come to me, if they want. I always check for hairballs, throw up, and retaliatory āaccidentsā around the house and clean them up when found.
My primary concern is the comfort and well being of your companion but I can also maintain any domestic schedules that may need to be kept up with like bringing in the mail, taking out the trash/recycling, watering plants, or any other cycles you may regularly upkeep.
Iām attentative to your companion and I can read feline body language well. I have cared for a variety of personalities and can manage them all. Like, letās say, maybe you have a ādifficultā cat, maybe heās one who doesnāt like others and might even get a little aggressive? I can care for him, Iām confident I can!
Learn More About Nicole
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
Cats are individually unique and they donāt immediately love everyone who walks into their home. I love learning who they are and gaining their trust if I need to.
Are you usually available during holidays?
I am! I work in the central Texas area between Georgetown ā San Antonio and as far as canyon lake to bastrop and I can be available for holidays if booked in advanced!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I have cared for many timid/ territorial/ anxious/ aggressive companions before. Mainly, I donāt force myself onto your companion and I give them all the space they need for them to feel comfortable with me, all on their own. Some cats never do warm up to me, even after multiple sittings, and thatās okay! Iām there to make sure they get food and water, their environment is clean and how it should be, and they are alive and well. They donāt have to like me, I donāt take it personally.

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 $27.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
