I'm Virginia
Cat Sitting in South Boston, MA
I love cats very much, as you can probably tell by now, and would be honored to help you take care of your kitties while you are away. I have three years of cat sitting experience on the Meowtel platform with stellar reviews from past clients... Hello! My name is Ginny and I am a 32 year old woman living in South Boston with two precious cats of my own, Mack the Knife and Sweet Georgia Brown. I adopted my sweet cats in 2019 after falling in love with Georgia, my black cat with a white locket on her chest, at a shelter. Georgia came as a package deal because she was thoroughly bonded to her tuxedo brother. I went in for one cat and came out with two. Lucky day for me!
I love cats very much, as you can probably tell by now, and would be honored to help you take care of your kitties while you are away. I have three years of cat sitting experience on the Meowtel platform with stellar reviews from past clients. I also have ten years of prior experience pet sitting both cats and dogs in DC. Therefore, I am happy to follow all of your preferred care routines to make sure that your pets are nourished and loved so that you won't have to worry at all.
I relocated to Boston from DC in 2022. I worked for eight years in luxury hospitality while living in DC, so I am well versed in making sure my clients are satisfied and happy. I am also broadly available at the moment and happy to travel within 30 minutes or so of South Boston to take care of your cats. This flexible perimeter primarily includes Boston, the North Boston Metro area, and parts of Greater Lowell.
Please reach out at any time to request a booking or ask further questions about my posting. I am happy to talk further and look forward to hearing from you soon!

Ginny did a perfect job catsitting while I was away for a few days. She made sure to gather all the right details in case anything came up, provided me with regular updates and pictures, and treated my apartment so respectfully. With each update I could tell that my cat June was so comfortable around her and that she provided a safe space while I was away.

Virginia did a great job looking after my cats, and I would definitely hire her again. She took detailed notes during the meet-and-greet to make sure we had covered everything that needed to be done, and texted me photos from her visit so I could see that they were doing well.

Ginny was a great sitter! She communicated well throughout the process and sent many updates and pictures. Most importantly she took good care of the kitties, makings sure to give each cat in my multi-cat household individual attention (and treats). This was our first time leaving the cats alone for so long and also doing only drop-in visits and I am so glad they were well fed and cared for by Ginny!

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.
South Boston cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $32.00. 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!

Ginny was amazing! I had a last minute request, and she answered me right away. My 2 cats were excited and greeted her when she came over every time, even though one can sometimes be a little shy. I received photos after each visit and speedy updates. She followed all of my instructions as well, I would definitely recommend her!

Virginia took care of my two boys. Oliver was scared at the meet and greet, but by the end of Virginia’s first visit, he was curling around her legs. She seems to be a real cat lady! Dinky never came out, but that’s par for the course. Virginia took good care of them. I would recommend.

Virginia was by far one of the best sitters I’ve ever used. She made sure my cat was taken care of and loved during her visits. She also helped clean up after my cat if it got a little dirty. Will definitely be booking again!
