Local know-how pays off in Georgetown
A Georgetown cat visit in August starts at the thermostat. Normal highs hit 96.8, and 20 afternoons a year pass 100. The city also gets 28 freezing nights a year, ten of them in January. A cold snap makes the heat check and the water bowl part of the visit. May is the wettest month at 4.25 inches.
When demand peaks
Georgetown ISD sets the travel weeks. The district closes November 23 to 27, 2026, then again from December 21 to January 1. Spring break falls March 15 to 19, 2027, and classes end May 28. Southwestern University closes November 25 to 27 and ends fall classes on December 4.

University Park runs 314 lots and Westhaven 372, both on the south side, where a key or a lockbox starts the visit. Sun City adds 8,100 lots in the northwest, a long drive from the Old Town loop of 1,400 lots.
Cat homes in Georgetown
Georgetown counts 37,206 housing units, and 27,335 of them are detached houses. Only 5,840 sit in buildings of five units or more. 10,814 of the 35,400 occupied units are rented. August highs near 97 degrees keep cats on the AC from June through September.
Bilingual owners book faster

What a cat sitting job in Georgetown actually involves
Section 7.04.010 exempts a cat from the at-large rule unless it is unaltered or unvaccinated for rabies. Section 7.02.010 still requires a license for any cat over four months kept in the city 30 days or longer, with the tag on a collar. Ask for the rabies certificate and the vet's name at the handover.
Keys and access
Most Georgetown owners hand over a spare key, a lockbox code or a smart-lock code at the meet-and-greet. Agree where the key lives and how you get in if the code fails, and confirm it before the owner leaves town.
The visit
Fresh food and water, the litter box scooped, a look at the cat and a few minutes of play or a brush. You note anything off, like a skipped meal or a hidden cat, so the owner hears it from you first.
The update
A photo and two lines in the app after every visit. Owners who cannot see their cat for a week live on those messages, and a sitter who sends them without being asked is the one they rebook.

What Georgetown owners look for in a cat sitter
Cat owners book on trust more than on price. The profile details below are the ones they ask about.
Comfort with shy cats
Many cats hide from a stranger for the first visit. Owners want to hear that you will sit with the cat, not chase it, and that a hidden cat still gets fed and its box scooped.
Reliability, twice a day
A cat on medication or a diabetic cat needs visits at the same time every day. Say what your schedule can hold in Georgetown, and mention any medication experience, even with your own cat.
A tidy visit
Litter cleaned properly, nothing left out, doors and windows as you found them, and a message with a photo. Owners come home and look for those signs before they look at anything else.
