Cat Sitting in Colfax

“This was my first time ever using a petsitter. I was worried that with Lily needing a pill crushed up and added to her food that it was going to be hard to find someone. Chloe was amazing. I gave her all the instructions, showed her where everything was and she showed up on time for each meal. We take weekend trips here and there and I'm hoping this will be the start of a great connection for Lily and Mistletoe.”

“Charity is an absolute godsend! I had a problem with this last-minute trip this weekend, and I had not called her to cover taken care of my three cats, because I do have a feeder Robot for short term trips… However, we had a power outage, and that resets the machine, and it no longer turns on after that, and my boys were gonna be hungry! I called her at the last minute to see if she could be there for two days, and she replied positively which was wonderful! Unfortunately, we had a whole mess load of snow after I left, which cost her family some issues, and she had to take care of some stuff, but she still got to me and the boys and got them fed and watered, and I so appreciate that… Family comes first in my book, but even after she got done that she still got to me and that’s so wonderful And I can’t thank her enough for all she does! If you need somebody, reliable, and Great with your animals, don’t hesitate to ask her to sit for you!”

“Kimberly was available to drop in on super short notice. Roxy always seems so happy when I come back home and I can tell she was well taken care of. Thank you!”

“Isabella is fantastic! I am so relieved that she was there to take care of my babies. She went above and beyond when my oldest was unable to get up. She took her to the emergency clinic and stayed with her until they took over. I just love Isabella and her caring manner.”

About: I am a dedicated dog enthusiast with more than 13 years of hands-on experience caring for and raising dogs through every stage of life, from puppyhood to senior care. While my greatest experience has been with Great Danes, I have also spent years raising and caring for Pit Bull Terriers, developing a strong understanding of the unique needs, personalities, and characteristics of both breeds. My experience includes puppy development and socialization, basic obedience training, nutrition and wellness management, daily exercise routines, preventative care, and supporting dogs through adulthood and their senior years. I have cared for aging dogs with mobility challenges, administered medications when needed, and provided the patience, comfort, and attention necessary to maintain their quality of life as they age. Living and working with Great Danes has given me extensive knowledge of giant-breed care, while my experience with Pit Bull Terriers has strengthened my appreciation for intelligent, loyal, and energetic companions. Beyond these breeds, I have a genuine love for dogs of all kinds and enjoy learning about the unique traits and needs that make every breed special. Choosing me to care for your dog also offers the unique benefit of two welcoming locations. In Lancaster, Ohio, dogs enjoy a comfortable, home-based environment where they can relax and receive personalized attention as part of the family. In Pataskala, Ohio, dogs have access to 15 acres of open space for supervised exploration, exercise, and enrichment. While the property is unfenced, all outdoor activities are closely monitored to ensure safety. During their stay in Pataskala, dogs can relax alongside me in a cozy, home-like camper, providing a comfortable and secure environment that helps them feel at ease while away from home. My approach to canine care is rooted in compassion, consistency, and respect for each dog's individual personality. Whether caring for a playful puppy, an active adult, or a beloved senior, I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and enriching environment where dogs can thrive and feel like valued members of the family. Your dog's comfort, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. ABOUT ME I'm a stay-at-home mom and lifelong dog lover with over 13 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions. Because I am home full-time, your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day and night. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, they'll never feel like they're being left alone for long periods. I have three children who have grown up around large-breed dogs their entire lives, including Great Danes and Pit Bull Terriers. They understand how to interact respectfully with dogs, are well-mannered around dogs they don't know, and have learned the importance of giving each dog the space and attention they need to feel comfortable and secure. One of the unique benefits of choosing me is the flexibility of two care locations, allowing you to select the environment that best suits your dog's personality and needs: 📍 Lancaster, Ohio – A traditional home setting where your dog can enjoy a comfortable family environment, regular routines, and plenty of one-on-one attention. 📍 Pataskala, Ohio – A peaceful rural property with 15 acres of open land for supervised exploration, exercise, and enrichment. While the property is unfenced, all outdoor time is carefully supervised. Dogs stay with me in a cozy camper that serves as a comfortable, home-like space during their visit. Whether your dog prefers the familiarity of a traditional home environment or the adventure of wide-open spaces, the choice is yours. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience where your dog is treated like a member of the family from the moment they arrive until it's time to go home. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐾💕 When your dog stays with me, they'll be treated like part of the family. As a stay-at-home mom, I am available throughout the day to provide supervision, companionship, exercise, potty breaks, feeding, and plenty of affection. Your dog won't be left alone for long stretches, allowing me to maintain their routine and give them the attention they deserve. With more than 13 years of experience raising and caring for Great Danes and Pit Bull Terriers from puppyhood through their senior years, I understand that every dog has unique needs. Whether your dog is an energetic puppy, an active adult, or a senior who requires extra patience and care, I am committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved during their stay. I strive to keep your dog's routine as consistent as possible by following feeding schedules, exercise preferences, medication instructions, and any special requests you provide. I understand how important it is for dogs to feel secure when away from home, and I work hard to create a calm, positive environment where they can relax and thrive. I offer two care settings, allowing you to choose the environment that best fits your dog's personality: Lancaster, Ohio – A traditional home environment ideal for dogs who enjoy a familiar family atmosphere, indoor comfort, and plenty of companionship. Pataskala, Ohio – A peaceful property with 15 acres of open space for supervised walks, exploration, and enrichment. While the land is unfenced, all outdoor activities are closely monitored. Dogs stay with me in a comfortable, home-like camper, ensuring they always have a safe and cozy place to rest. My three children have been raised around large-breed dogs their entire lives and understand how to respectfully interact with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. They help create a warm, family-oriented environment while respecting each dog's individual comfort level and boundaries. Most importantly, I believe every dog deserves individualized care. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, cuddle, or simply relax, I take the time to learn their personality and preferences so they can enjoy a stress-free stay while you're away. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, happy, and receiving the same level of care and attention I would give my own.

About: Hi! I’m Lauren, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up with dogs and spent years helping take care of them—feeding, walking, playing, and, of course, giving lots of love. In high school and after, I worked as a dog sitter for families in my neighborhood, building experience with a variety of breeds and personalities. These days, I’m a proud cat mom to two sweet kitties, so I’m very familiar with both dog and cat care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or more shy and relaxed, I always adapt to their needs and treat them like my own. I know how important it is to feel confident in the person caring for your pets. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and gentle with your furry family members. I’m excited to meet your pets and give them the same love and attention they get from you! I have availability all throughout the week including weekends! I’m usually available from early in the morning starting around 6:30 AM to the evening as late as 8-9 PM. I can take on walks, feed, water, etc on whatever schedule is best for you and your fur baby. I always want to make sure the cat/ and or dog feels as comfortable as possible when you are away.

About: I have owned dogs for 13 years and I have loved them all. Dogs bring me happiness and I love the idea of helping people who share that same happiness. I have taken care of three dogs at one time and so I am very comfortable with being around groups of dogs. I do have a full time job, but evenings I would be extremely flexible along with being available all day through out Saturday and Sunday. I have experience with all sizes of dogs so I am willing to work with any breed. I simply enjoy being around dogs. They are amazing animals and I can't think of a better way to spend my extra time then with these amazing animals that come in all shapes and sizes.

“Dory went above and beyond for our furry family members, staying around to ensure the pups were calm and safe feeling with all of the fireworks happening around the 4th of July. She was very prompt and dependable, and even freshened our duck’s water each day. She was a trooper during a power outage, and cleaned up an accident one of our older dogs had while we are away. She was very communicative and observant, and I felt she loved our girls just as much as we do. We highly recommend Dory! Th”

I am currently working part time, and I’m in the process of starting my own business at home so I will be home mostly all day. At home I have a fenced in backyard with lots of room to run. I have a car that I can take dogs to the park and walk as well as being able to get to clients houses. I take care of all animals as if they are my own.

About: Iv worked with many breeds of dogs. Iv trained my own service dog and I’m working as an intern with a trainer to continue that journey. Iv interned at vets and can give oral and topical medications. My goal is to own my own day camp, training facility, sports facility for dogs in the future. I am a stay at home mom and can be available any day. During the week the longest the dogs are left alone are 1-3hrs. We have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room to roam and play. We have three large dogs, a hound mix, and English setter, and a German Shepherd. We have a two year old that loves dogs but understands the proper boundaries with them and even how to play ball with them. We do snuffle activities, leashed walks, free walks in our yard, fetch, tug, whatever your pup wants/needs we can and WILL provide it for them. Your pup will be treated with as much love and care as my pups receive!

“Samantha did a great job checking in on our cat, Louie. On a previous vacation, he came to a cat with a UTI because the person we hired (not through Rover.com) did not clean his box properly. Samantha kept us up to date on how Louie was doing and kept his boxes clean. We came home from vacation to a happy and healthy cat. I will definitely use Samantha again!”

Kris J.

“Very caring and great with my German Shepherd, who has some anxiety issues. Working with him to get him better with pulling the leash on walks. Highly recommend!”
