Cat Sitting in Boulder, CO

Hello, I’m Leila!
I’m an artist and lover of cats! Before I moved to Colorado, I lived with and took care of my sister’s cat Mochi for several years (the sweetest Tabby boy in the world). I would also help watch the cats of my neighbors, friends, and family throughout my undergrad summers.

I think cats are just the greatest! I love to visit cat cafes, I’ve volunteered at shelters before, and I always have a churu in my purse if I encounter a friendly neighborhood cat...
Hello, I’m Leila!
I’m an artist and lover of cats! Before I moved to Colorado, I lived with and took care of my sister’s cat Mochi for several years (the sweetest Tabby boy in the world). I would also help watch the cats of my neighbors, friends, and family throughout my undergrad summers.

I think cats are just the greatest! I love to visit cat cafes, I’ve volunteered at shelters before, and I always have a churu in my purse if I encounter a friendly neighborhood cat.

I believe cats deserve the upmost respect, care, and attention. That means going at their pace, respecting their preferences, and trying my best. That also means I will follow your guidance, ask questions, and communicate in a timely manner (with pictures) too! Beyond the basics, I’ll go the extra mile as well! If you want me to deep clean a litter box or watch bird TV with your cats, I’ll do it!

Currently, I live in Boulder, CO and work a full time 9-5, but I would be more than happy to help in the early mornings and evenings. I look forward to meeting you and your fur family!

Learn More About Leila

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have been a cat sitter for the entirety of my undergraduate education (4 years). Most of the cats I helped were regularly healthy, only some needed medications within their food.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Getting to know the cat and winning their trust is the best feeling! I also enjoy seeing the dynamic between the cat and their owner, it’s nice to see different perspectives and approaches when it comes to cat care.

What is your favorite cat toy?

A shoestring! It’s rare that I encounter cats who don’t want to chase them down. It can be a great form of exercise for everyone involved.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

Boulder cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $29.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a 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 Meet & Greet!
