Cat Sitting Columbus

“I have a hard time leaving my cats, and one of them needs insulin, but I was pretty much at ease as soon as met Roxanne. She has experience with animals and my cats seemed to like her. The trip went well and I didn’t worry because she was easy to communicate with and reliable. I’d recommend her & I’d use her again”

About: I have over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all sizes, from large farm animals like cows and horses to household pets including dogs, cats, and rabbits. My background includes working with both family pets and farm animals, giving me experience with different temperaments, routines, and care needs. In addition to my professional and educational experience, I also raise and care for my own animals, including rabbits, poultry, dogs, and cats. I am currently pursuing a B.S. in Animal Science with a minor in Histotechnology, along with a dual major in Canine Management and Training. My education has strengthened my knowledge of animal behavior, health, handling, and proper care techniques. In addition to my schooling, I was involved in 4-H for 10 years and FFA for 6 years, where I gained extensive experience in animal husbandry, responsibility, and daily animal care. I have also worked as a kennel assistant in a veterinary hospital and as a stable hand at a horse rescue ranch, where I assisted with feeding, cleaning, exercise, monitoring animal health, and providing compassionate care. I am also comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to ensure pets stay healthy and comfortable. What sets me apart is my combination of real-world animal experience, formal education, and genuine passion for animal care. I am comfortable caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, and I strive to provide safe, patient, and reliable care that helps pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident. I am currently a college student home for the summer, looking to stay busy. I work as a softball coach on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, as well as weekends. While I am not coaching, I am looking to spend my time with animals. Pets in my care are treated like family, and their safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. At my home, we have 20 wooded acres with plenty of space for exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time. Dogs can enjoy supervised leash walks or long-line walks, depending on their needs and the owner’s preference. I always make sure pets are safely handled and closely supervised at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to follow their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed in their familiar environment. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions to make sure each pet gets the care they are used to. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.

About: We grew up with pets and we have a pet loving family. We have a German wirehair pointer dog, cat and raise rabbits for showing. We also volunteer at a local goat farm and help take care of goats. I work full time out of the home, Monday-Friday, so your dog will be kenneled while we are at work. Unless it’s summer or holiday then my schedule may be different. I will do morning walks and night walks and playtime outside after and before work. We have an unfenced large yard so your pet will be leashed for playtime. We have a nice larger private backyard so plenty of space for exercise.

“My first time using Jackie and my dog was well cared for. Communication through the day kept me at ease leaving my dog in her care. She followed all my directions and best of all left my dog fed, exercised and happy.”

About: I have had and loved dogs my entire life! I have experience with puppies, senior dogs and everywhere in between. I took a training class with a well-known local dog trainer prior to adopting my last puppy, and I learned a lot! I have also taken care of cats, turtles and chickens. I work part-time, so I'd love to fill my free time by taking care of your pet! A quick walk/drop-in or a longer stay, I can make it work. I will use my experience, but more importantly your instructions, to take care of your pet in the best way possible. You know them best, so tell me what they like and need and I will make it happen!

About: I have about 8.5 years of pet care experience, caring for both my own cat and dog as well as pets for friends and family. I’m comfortable with dogs of different personalities and needs, including administering medication and caring for a dog with severe separation anxiety. I treat every pet like they’re my own, providing patient, reliable, and loving care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I am available to do drop in visits for dogs and cats in the morning before work, during the lunch hour, and evenings as needed. I am able to accommodate dog walking as well. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I know every pet has their own routine, so I’ll follow your instructions carefully to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether it’s a drop-in visit, a walk, or staying in your home, I’ll provide plenty of attention, playtime, fresh food and water, potty breaks, medication if needed, and lots of love. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring, dependable hands.

“It's such a relief having Mariane checking in on my new puppy and older dog during the day while I'm at work! She always takes such good care of them and spoils them with treats too. :)”

About: I have had dogs my whole life, for as long as I can remember we always had 3 dogs. I've been pet sitting on-and-off since I was a teenager and have experience caring for all ages and sizes! I worked for Angel of Hope Animal Shelter for over two years as their marketing specialist (2019-2021), after I left and accepted a different position, I stayed on as a foster parent for awhile before I had to officially resign - I was switched to night-shift at work and was no longer able to continue care at the standard I wanted.

Initial Meet & Greet: I always start with a supervised meet & greet. I’ll work with you to understand your pet's routine, preferences, and any special needs or medical requirements.
