House Sitting in Columbus

“Mackenzie took incredible care of our three fur babies, over a holiday too!! They were healthy and happy while we were out of state and that is everything to us. She kept the home clean and was communicative, and gave us updates with photos and asked great questions. 10/10 would recommend!!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better house and dog sitter! She took wonderful care of our three dogs over the past four days, and we returned home to happy, well-loved pups and a house in perfect condition. She was highly communicative throughout our time away, providing updates that gave us complete peace of mind. She handled a few unexpected challenges with professionalism and ease, which truly speaks to her reliability and dedication. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I can’t say enough great things about her—she was absolutely fabulous! We would trust her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dependable and compassionate sitter.”

About: I have taken care of animals since I was very young. I'm very experienced with dogs, cats, horses, turtles, lizards, fish, and more. I currently work part time so I will have lots of time to look after your pets! Currently right now I am a student at UCM, but I have no other job so I'll have lots of time to look after your pets! I will not board animals at my house unless they are a small pet like a snake or lizzard. But I will definitely look after pets in your house and make sure that their needs are met and that they are as happy as they can be!

About: Hello! I have 5+ years of trusted experience dog and house sitting for repeat families since high school. I am reliable and attentive to each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. I also make it a priority to keep your home clean, tidy, and well maintained while you’re away! My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, cared for, and comfortable the entire time. Pet care fits into my routine mainly on weekends when I can stay in-home. I work part-time in Lee’s Summit and keep a flexible, responsible schedule. I stay in the home and follow the pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding, walks, and attention, to keep them comfortable while their owner is away.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and animals hold a special place in my heart . I’m currently a Pre-Veterinary student at the University of Central Missouri, and for the past five years, I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant at Pleasant Hill Animal Clinic, where my dad is a veterinarian. I’ve also been pet sitting for the past two years, caring for pets of all ages—from playful 10-month-old to sweet 12-year-old seniors. I have experience administering medications, including insulin injections for diabetic dogs, and I always make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I truly consider the dogs I care for as part of my extended family, and I can’t wait to meet your furry best friend and give them the same love and attention I’d give my own. I currently work part-time as a veterinary assistant, and I’m typically available every day except Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. On those days, I occasionally have morning or afternoon availability, and I’m always available after 6 PM. I offer in-home care, boarding, and drop-in visits. Even on my busiest days, I always have a lunch break, so I’m never away from pets in my care for more than six hours at a time. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priority, and I strive to provide dependable, loving care at all times. I have a fully fenced yard and one friendly Great Dane who can be easily kenneled or separated as needed. My home also features a dedicated, dog-proofed room that’s perfect for free roaming and playtime. Whether your pup prefers quiet relaxation or active engagement, I’m able to provide a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment tailored to their needs.

About: Experience and a giant heart. I was born and raised on a farm and have lots of experience caring and vetting for my own animals. As an animal lover, pets are an important part of my daily routine whether it’s feeding walking playing or providing companionship I make sure they receive care attention they need I treat all pets like they are my own. I love and cherish and spoil each one of them. I look forward to, caring for your babies.

“Kristy, was awesome she truly loved her work with my dogs. She communicates through out her visits with texts and lots of pics.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8. I’ve watched numerous friends and family’s pets but recently found out I have an allergy to cats. I have house sit and dog sit for about 5 years when I first turned 13. I currently work part time for a school and will be moving 2 hours away from home in August. I’m more available in the mornings and evening times but can stay over night and do afternoons if needed. I care for pets by feeding and watering them, giving them attention and if they are put on a certain schedule I will be sure to follow it. I had to watch a dog who was diabetic and had to give it medicine in the morning and evening time.

About: I’ve also had guinea pigs and rabbits and birds and goats. I love all animals and am happy to care for them no matter what shape or size. They all deserve love and attention and as long as I have solid instructions then I got it covered and they’ll feel like they’re my own babies. I’m currently unemployed. I’m getting certified to sell insurance and am home. I have two children in pre school and elementary school and the extra money would help a lot in this transitional period. I can happily come to your home and give your animals all the love they need. I’m in an apartment so coming to my home isn’t available currently but I can do check-ins or extended stays at your home depending on what you need.

“There is no other sitter that I would even consider watching my little teddy bear. She treats him like he’s her own. She’s phenomenal and I highly recommend her.”

About: I have had pets my whole life up! I'm a full time stay at home mom with 3 kiddos (2 in school and 1 not in school cause shes a baby!) I am looking to earn a little pocket change while hopefully helping someone out with their fur babies. Most times I will have to come with my baby in her carrier for now, but certain times I may be able to work around that, so please dont hesitate to ask! I am willing to travel as far as Kansas City/Overland Park, Pittsburg, and Joplin/Springfield, or basically within an hour and half for house sitting. As a mom I am not able to stay in your home for house sitting, I could consider pet care inside my home on a case-by-case basis. For daily walks, we will have to agree on a price if its farther than Nevada, El Dorado Springs. I live on a few acres with cats, a dog, chickens, and ducks. I have experience with a lot of different types of animals as well including fish and smaller caged critters. I have experience working with service dogs as well. If you have any questions, please reach out! Im super flexible and would love to be able to help you any way that I can. I am a stay at home mom with 2 of 3 kiddos in school. My schedule is very open. Whatever work you're needing with your animals, please reach out. Animal care in my home will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Animal care in your home will be as requested by you. I typically could not do overnight care as I've got kiddos in school and will most likely have to travel a bit to help you with your animals, but on weekends or breaks I can consider it.

“We absolutely LOVED Lucas! Even Bobby Cat loved him and and Bobby doesn’t like anybody! This was the first time we have ever left our boys with a stranger. We did a meet and greet with Lucas several days before we left and our beasties all went crazy over him. I trust their instincts over anything. Lucas sent us pictures and messages daily. I felt comfortable and confident that the boys were in good hands, and able to relax and enjoy myself. The entire experience was great! Lucas will be our “go-to guy” for future travel!”

About: I’ve been around dogs for the past 6 years and absolutely love spending time with them. I’m patient, friendly, and always do my best to make sure each dog feels comfortable and cared for. I understand what dogs need, whether it’s playtime, a good walk, or just some quiet company. Every pup is different, and I make sure to treat each one with the attention and love they deserve. Taking care of animals is just part of my everyday life. I’ve got a handful of dogs at home, and they’re all very different, some full of energy, some more laid-back. My day usually starts and ends with walks, feeding, and playtime, and in between I’m checking in on how everyone’s doing. I’m used to balancing different routines and personalities, so giving each pet what they need just comes naturally. My older dog needs a little extra help, so I take time to help with potty breaks and sometimes hand-feed when needed. I make sure he’s comfortable and not rushed. My younger dogs are more active, so we go on walks, play outside, and spend time burning off that energy. I try to keep things balanced—making sure everyone gets the attention, care, and patience they need. Each of my dogs is different, and I’ve learned to adjust to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.

About: I have had experience with cats my whole life, dogs about half. I own two cats and have had them since I was born, but I have had friends and family with dogs along the years. I pet sit often for my Uncle and Aunt for their three dogs, and other family members for their dogs and or cats. I have plenty experience walking dogs, taking them outside, cleaning up after both animals (litter boxes or not), as well as both playing and feeding them! I am currently working part time, so I will have a decent amount of time to care for your pets! My timeframe does vary, but I am very punctual and flexible with my times. I am unavailable most every Sunday, but I will always let you know what works best for me so I can help you out! I love getting to know their personalities and sitting or playing with them, no matter how mellow or how excited! It is very important to me that I learn their boundaries and behaviors so I can give them my best care, like offering my hands out for them to smell or standing or sitting a certain distance away from them until they are comfortable with me.

About: I grew up with two dogs and a cat took care of them a lot also, my grandma‘s dog which was a smaller dog. Fast forward I bought two kitties. They’re almost one now and there perfectly healthy and adorable. I’m available Monday thru Friday after 11am anytime after that I’m available to take care or walk your pet in the week. Hope this helps I feed them when they need to be fed and I play with them and pet them and make them feel welcomed . I also give them treats if there good (animal treats ofc)

About: Highly experienced in puppy and dog training including potty training, leash walking, recall, and other basic commands. Also experienced in cat and bird care. I have a 3 year old high energy dog that I love taking for hikes and bike rides. I’ve completed multiple series of puppy and dog training courses. This is my full-time passion! I have a ton of flexibility to attend to your furry (and non-furry) friends! If you’d like to request times outside of my typical days/hours, please message me. I will gladly rearrange my schedule if possible. I have a fully fenced yard as well as a loving and friendly dog to keep your pets company. I’m happy to crate your pets if you’d like. I stay updated on the location of local pet hospitals and have a very safe ranch style home with no stairs.

About: Ask me how to get $20 off your first booking!! Hi, I’m Gabby! I’m a dog momma to my Luna girl, a 9 year old Lab/Australian Shepherd Mix and Leala a 7 year old mixed breed. Both pups are rescues and have been the best thing that’s ever happened to me! I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs and have always been the go to person for pet sitting for the folks in my life. I have 15+ years of experience when it comes to dogs & cats! We promise to give lots of love to your fur baby. I’ve recently had some changes in my life and will no longer be able to do boarding, but would love to housesit and watch your fur babies in your/their home, with my girls as well of course. I know every animal is unique and assure patience and a willingness to take the time to get to know your pets! I have a flexible schedule. My pups eat twice daily, but we can incorporate whatever feeding style your fur baby needs. Most of my life revolves around my pups so that means it will around your animals as well! I know it takes a couple days for us and animals to learn each other and will be understanding of that while meeting your fur baby where and how they need. Please just let me know what your pets needs to be cared for and to feel loved and we will go from there!
