I'm Gabriella
Cat Sitting in Minneapolis, MN
I have had cats in my home since I was born!... Hello! My name is Gabriella and I am 25 years old. I am a Physician Assistant student at the College of Saint Mary in Omaha, NE. I am originally from MN and am currently back home for clinical rotations. I graduate in August 2026 and plan to move back to MN permanently. In my free time, I enjoy making things with my Cricut, crocheting, reading, and downhill skiing.
I have had cats in my home since I was born! I have had my orange tabby, Peaches, since I was nine years old. I have a calming presence and work well with cats that might be uncomfortable around strangers. I have over ten years of experience pet sitting and nannying. I am very attentive and responsible. I will take the time to get to know your cat and make sure they are comfortable and safe while you are away! I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies!

Gabriella was so kind to our cats. one of our cats has more need for attention and she made sure that all snuggles and treats were given in abundance. our other cat is quite shy, but she made she to check in and even learn to give her favorite treat. Gabriella learned a new skill to take on our booking. my husband truly appreciate all of the extra work (brought in a package and fixed a clogged feeder) We will absolutely try to hire her again when we need to leave town.

We had a great experience with Gabriella. Our kitty was extremely well cared for. Her communication was timely and professional. Gabriella was also very patient as our cat took some time to get used to a new human. Photos and videos came promptly after each visit and all instructions were followed to the letter. We will certainly contact Gabriella the next time we need to travel.

Gabriella was wonderful! She sent me text updates each day with photos of my cats, their litter boxes, and food dishes. She was very attentive to each of their individual needs and implemented my suggestions into her daily visits. One of my cats is very nervous around strangers, and he came out of his hiding spot after just one visit from Gabriella. My other cat is very much a “people cat” and I was nervous that he would get lonely. Gabriella gave both the individual attention they needed and my cats were in good spirits when I arrived home from my 4-day trip. I would absolutely trust Gabriella to care for my cats again and plan to book her for cat care in the future.

Gabriella did an outstanding job visiting and caring for our cat Donut when we were on a recent family vacation! She visited for 6 days in a row and sent us detailed, thoughtful updates each day. She sent adorable pictures of Donut so we saw just how much Donut loved visiting with Gabriella, and we looked forward to these pictures every day! She also reported on and sent pictures of important details like Donut's litter box, how much food she ate and how they spent their time together. Gabriella really helped us out by gathering our mail, bringing in a package and bringing in our garbage cans after an unexpected snow storm as well. Donut is a bit shy with new people, but she was friendly and comfortable with Gabriella from our first meet and greet. Donut loved being pet, cuddled, brushed and spending time with Gabriella. Knowing our cat was being so well-cared-for by such a responsive, thoughtful, responsible cat sitter made our trip so much better! We would love to hire Gabriella again to care for Donut in the future!

I had the pleasure of hiring Gabriella to watch my two girls 🐈 and she exceeded my expectations. What a sweetheart! From the very beginning, Gabriella was responsive and communicative. She promptly replied to my inquires and was available for any updates or questions I had (and I had a lot of updates 🤪). She was able to accommodate my needs without any issue, which provided me with great peace of mind. When it comes to the care of my two cats, Gabriella truly excelled. She showed a genuine love and passion for animals, which was evident in the way she interacted with them. She ensured their well-being by providing them with their pre/probiotic, food, fresh water and clean litter boxes. Moreover, she went extra mile by spending quality time playing and engaging with my cats, which undoubtedly kept them happy and entertained. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Gabriella! Her responsiveness, adaptability and exceptional care for my cats make her an excellent choice for anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.

Gabriella is great. I booked her for a trip. The moment I returned, I booked her for my the next trip. When we met to hand over the key she was right on time, she visited when asked, took great pictures, and communicated promptly when I had a question. I would book her without any hesitation.

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.
Minneapolis cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $28.00. 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!

Gabriella and our two cats did very well together. She fed them studiously (our primary goal, kept their litters boxes well (better than we do!) and played with them. She was nice to the human family as well.

Gabriella once again took great care of our cat! The feeding and litter box were done well and she always takes time to play and cuddle. Such a relief to know Gabriella is there when we’re away.

This was our second booking with Gabriella to care for our cat Donut, and she was such a wonderful cat sitter for us once again! Donut loved spending time with Gabriella and looked forward to her visits. Gabriella's detailed updates and pictures of food, litter box and how she spent her time with Donut were terrific. The adorable pics of Donut always made us smile! Gabriella also brought in our mail and a package which was very helpful. She was so kind, friendly and responsive. It was a pleasure to work with her! We knew Donut was in wonderful hands while we were gone. We look forward to booking with Gabriella again in the future!
