House Sitting in Columbus

About: I genuinely treat every pet like they're my own. I'm comfortable caring for pets with different needs, whether that's high-energy dogs that need long walks and playtime, puppies still learning routines, or older pets that need a slower pace and a litle extra patience. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications (if necessary), and any specific instructions you leave. I also make a point to keep you updated with photos and check-ins, so you're never left wondering how your pet is doing. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I work as a paralegal during the week, but I'm available during my lunch break for walks or quick drop-ins. After 4 PM, I'm fully available for longer walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company. On weekends, I'm much more flexible and can be available pretty much all day depending on your needs. Whether it's multiple visits, extended stays, or last-minute plans, I'm happy to help. I just ask for about an hour's notice, so I can make sure I get there on time and give your pet the attention they deserve. In my own home, I'm used to caring for two very different personalities. I have one high-energy dog who loves to run and play, and one more relaxed dog who prefers to take it easy. I adjust my care based on their needs , whether that means being outside throwing a ball and staying active, or slowing things down for cuddle time and a calm environment. When I'm in a client's home, I follow that same approach. I pay close attention to each pet's personality and routine and adjust accordingly. If your dog loves to play, I'm more than happy to keep them active and engaged with walks, games, and mental stimulation. If they're more laid back or just want companionship, I'm just as happy to spend time relaxing with them and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for.

“Payton was good at communicating and was able to give our 100lb dog medication 2x a day. He stayed the night with our babies and took great care of them. I would recommend him and use his services again.”

“I had a great experience with Victor as my dog & house sitter. He was very attentive to Hank and respectful to my house. He watered my plants, washed towels he had used, and even potted trees that happened to be delivered early while I was away. I highly recommend Victor as a dog/house sitter!”

About: I have two years of experience working as a kennel tech where I was taught how to Give oral medication, and I have vet tech training assisting a vet in examination procedures, surgery prep, surgery recovery. I will almost 2 years of dog grooming experience with a variety of small to large dog breeds including older, blind, and deaf dogs. I love being outside and I work out regularly so I can keep up with your fur babies. I want to make this a full-time career so currently caring for pets fits into my routine as someone who loves animals and desires self-employment. In my home I have a feeding scheduled that I follow for my own pets. My senior cat gets a special cat food for his life stage. I have two boxes of toys for easy access, my vets number is on my fridge, and I have leash and harness trainined one of my cats for when they want to go outside to get some sunshine. In a clients home I follow there instructions for time outside, walks, and feeding. Otherwise I give there pets lots of love and make sure to clean up after them like I would my own. I love cuddles and playtime.

About: I am flexible with any care your pet may need. I have a direct line to a vet clinic where I also work at. I also accept pets with prescribed medications or special needs. Exotics are also welcome, and I provide services for large animal such as horses, livestock, and/or farm animals! I try to be as flexible as possible to work around my schedule. I go to school so most visits would be extended afternoon visits, but weekends would be completely open. I require detailed and clear instructions of the exact care you want your pet to have. Such as do they have specific feed or potty times etc. all written on a hard copy. I take your special care needs seriously and like to make sure everything is done correctly; therefore, please be available to answer a text or phone call at any time.

“Shelby did an incredible job watching both of our pups while we were away. She kept us updated and we were never once worried about being away from Booker & Sassy. She treated our pups like her own, and we returned to happy, relaxed pups. I will absolutely be booking Shelby again in the future.”
