Kara's Reviews
West
Man oh man did Kara make our first trip perfect! Spent a week out of the country and we were so stressed until we met Kara! Sonny loved her! Daily updates were awesome and beyond the minimum for sure. I think the cat just booked another trip so she can hang out with Kara again! Thank you so much and can’t wait to book again!

Kara came to the rescue when we had just moved to the Austin area and had to travel out of town for a funeral. Her updates were great and she even was able to extend her visits when our flight got delayed.
Amanda
our regular cat sitter wasn’t available for our trip, so I found Meowtel and booked with Kara. I’m never going back! Kara sent updates at every visit, gave our diabetic cat his shots, and got pictures every time. She was amazing and I felt so at ease while we were gone. 😻😻

Had to schedule a last minute cat sitter and Kara was super responsive, attentive, and I felt like my kitty was in great hands. 10/10 will book again. Kara was very intuitive and assisted with things that I forgot to mention.
Pamela
Kara was such a wonderful and purrfect kitty caregiver. It made being away from my 4 cats so much easier. I highly recommend her.

Frequently Asked Questions
San Marcos cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $25.00. 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.
