Cat Sitting in Austin, TX

I work in tech but my true passion is cats, so caring for your feline friends is always the highlight of my day!! 💕💕

I work in tech but my true passion is cats, so caring for your feline friends is always the highlight of my day!! 💕💕

I have two kitties of my own: Rigby and Hazel. They couldn’t be more different than each other! Hazel is a sweet shy girl who loves to cuddle and Rigby is my extroverted adventurer who loves to run and play all day. Rigby also has IBD so I understand how important it is to provide extra care for a cat with special dietary needs.

I approach every visit with patience and care, letting each cat set the pace. I enjoy all sorts of quality time with cats; laying on the floor, playing with strings and playing fetch, whatever it is I will match your cats energy!

When I’m not with cats, I enjoy guitar, gaming, and cooking. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every cat like one of my own!

Learn More About Cristian

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy everyones different personalities! Each kitty likes to eat food a certain way, enjoys quality time a certain way, and likes to hang out in certain places! Very fun!!

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I typically try to learn the way cats behave and what their owners prefer beforehand. I also like to understand their habits to avoid any surprises!

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I am cautious the second I walk through the door. Knowing that lots of cats are excited to greet a new friend means that they often hang by the entrance so I have to be careful when walking in! I also try my best to put/throw away any trash or objects they can mess with and possibly hurt themselves with.

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 $26.00. 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 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!
