I'm Briana
Cat Sitting in Austin, TX
During visits, I keep thing... Hi! I’m Briana, a cat-loving sitter who believes every cat deserves care that matches their personality. Whether they’re shy, independent, playful, or extra cuddly, I take the time to understand what makes them feel safe and comfortable. I’m great at building trust with new cats by moving at their pace, reading their body language, and giving them space when they need it.
During visits, I keep things calm, consistent, and fun — whether that means interactive playtime, quiet company, or simply being a reassuring presence. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure your cat’s routine is followed exactly how you like it. My goal is for you to feel at ease while you’re away and for your cat to feel genuinely cared for.
I’d love to give your kitty the patience, warmth, and respect they deserve!
Learn More About Briana
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I’ve been caring for cats for a few years now, and most of my experience comes from regularly looking after cats for people in my life who trust me with their pets. I’ve gotten comfortable with different personalities — from social, playful cats to more reserved ones — and I’ve handled everything from daily feeding and litter care to giving them companionship while their owners are away. Over time, I’ve learned how to read their behavior, keep routines consistent, and make sure they feel safe and relaxed. It’s been a natural and enjoyable part of my life, and I’m excited to offer that same dependable care to others.
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
What I enjoy most about cat sitting is getting to connect with each cat’s unique personality. Knowing that my visit means a lot to them also brings me joy because they know they can count on me so they are not alone while their people are away.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
When caring for timid or anxious cats, I keep things calm and gentle. I move slowly, use a soft voice, and let them approach me when they’re ready. I watch their body language, offer treats or familiar items for comfort, and never rush the process. Patience and consistency help them feel safe and start to trust me.

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!
