I’m a dedicated and gentle cat sitter who truly understands that cats need patience, routine, and respect. I take the time to let cats warm up at their own pace and pay close attention to their individual personalities.

During each visit, I make sure I follow all directions given by the owner, and also make sure the cat has fresh water, a clean litter box, and receives plenty of attention if needed. I follow care instructions closely to keep your cat’s routine consistent.

I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and trustworthy. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Your cat’s comfort and well-being always come first.

Learn More About Gianna

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy observing and getting to know the cats. Each cat has such a unique personality and I enjoy getting to know and understanding them.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I start by asking the parent thier schedule, and seeing if we can do a meet in greet before sitting. This ensures the cat and I meet under more comfortable circumstances, and I get to greet and learn your cats behavior. I am also able to talk to you and understand what the cat parent would like me to do while watching their babies!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I keep my distance and let the cat warm up at their own pace. New people can cause anxiety for the cat, and I want to make sure they are as comfortable as possible. I’ll talk to the parent and see what the cat likes, maybe a treat or a toy and use that to help the cat get more comfortable.

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.

Gainesville cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $23.00. 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
