I'm Gin
Cat Sitting in Boise, ID
I share my home with 11 cats, including cats who began their lives as feral and eventually learned to feel safe, secure, and loved. That experience has taught me how to read feline body language, respect boundaries, recognize subtle changes in behavior, and build trust with even the most cautious cats.
I provide a luxury level of care centered around your cat’s individual personality and routine... Cats aren’t just pets to me—they’re family, and I understand that earning a cat’s trust happens on their terms.
I share my home with 11 cats, including cats who began their lives as feral and eventually learned to feel safe, secure, and loved. That experience has taught me how to read feline body language, respect boundaries, recognize subtle changes in behavior, and build trust with even the most cautious cats.
I provide a luxury level of care centered around your cat’s individual personality and routine. Cats thrive on consistency, and I know how important their feeding schedule, favorite hiding places, playtime, clean environment, and familiar rituals can be—especially while their person is away.
Whether your cat wants lots of affection and conversation or prefers that I quietly earn their trust from across the room, I meet them where they are. I never force interaction.
My goal is simple: while you’re away, your cat should feel safe, comfortable, understood, and exceptionally well cared for—and you should have the peace of mind of knowing they’re in the hands of someone who truly understands cats.

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.
Boise cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
