Rachel's Reviews
Justin
return customer, will keep returning my boys love Rachel!
Cedric
Can't say enough good things about Rachel. This was by far the longest time that we left Mittens alone, and we were very concerned. However, from the Meet & Greet through the detailed updates, Rachel managed to make us comfortable leaving Mittens in her care. We returned today to find her in good spirits and great health. We can thank Rachel enough for taking such good care of Mittens.
Jessica
Rachel had very clear communication with me the whole time. She showed our kitties sincere care and respect. She alleviated anxieties by spelling out what she did on each visit and carrying out all the specific things we’d asked. We really appreciated her being available during the holidays!!
Drew
Rachel was so attentive, detail-oriented, and sweet with our kitties! She communicated thoroughly and paid great attention to our needs. I highly recommend booking with Rachel!
Kaila
This was the first time we had a cat sitter so I was nervous that our shy kitten would be too nervous to come out, but Rachel was so calm and kind with our kitten! She did actually what I asked for. She also let me know when she was on her way, sent pictures, and gave very specific details about our kitten. If we need a cat sitter again, we will definitely book through Rachel!

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 $28.00. 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.
