Your cat stays in their own home, with their own routine
Austin cats live in bungalows, mid-century homes, and East Austin lofts that they know intimately. Removing them from that environment for boarding usually adds more stress than the trip itself.

Petme charges Austin cat owners 0% commission. The per-visit rate is the full price. You get up to $22,000 through the Protection Plan for eligible vet costs, useful coverage if your cat ever needs Austin Vet Emergency or Heart of Texas Veterinary Specialists. Cashback compounds with each visit.
