House Sitting in New Albany

“Samantha took great care of two Labs and sent us lots of pictures, which we greatly appreciated! At the last minute, we had to ask her to drop off our sick cat at our Vet's office the day we left on our trip and she gladly did it. The next day, on her own initiative, she visited our cat at the Vet's office to give him some TLC.”

“Kiara took great care of our dogs. She was quick to respond to messages. Kiara was reliable and professional; she let me know when my dog appeared to not feel well.”

“We were so happy to have found Jamie to house sit with our two dogs. Jamie was responsive, responsible, and trustworthy in her caretaking and communication. We felt very at ease leaving our two older dogs with her in our house while we went on a trip. She kept us well updated with pictures and texts and we really appreciated her flexible schedule. We would very much recommend Jamie to watch your animals and look forward to hosting her again in the future.”

About: As a dog mom of three very different pups—a goofy cuddle bug, a squirrel-chasing chatterbox, and a calm, loyal companion—I truly understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt my care to each dog’s unique energy level, quirks, and routine. I have experience with senior dogs, stubborn breeds, and high-energy pups, and I’m especially great with food-motivated dogs (because let’s be honest—treats are love!). Whether your pup needs a playmate, a cuddle buddy, or a calm presence, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I also have experience with medication administration, basic training reinforcement, and helping dogs feel comfortable in new environments. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be cared for like family. Pet care is a natural fit in my life because I’m already surrounded by dogs and love spending time with them! I work full time, but I’m looking to do pet care part time—and I have flexibility in my current schedule that allows me to make arrangements as needed. Whether it’s early morning walks, evening drop-ins, or weekend stays, I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a routine that works for everyone. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I’m excited to welcome more furry friends into my weekly routine! I provide pet care exclusively in my clients' homes to ensure each pet stays comfortable in their own environment and to avoid any stress from introducing them to my three resident dogs. I’m respectful of routines and will follow all care instructions closely—whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, medication, or cuddle time. I make it a priority to keep your pet safe, happy, and loved while you're away, and I always provide updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

“Mallory was amazing and when she gets back from vacation, I will contact her again. She showed up on time and was professional and friendly. My dog loved her and was very calm when I returned home. I highly recommend her.”

Kathryn D.

“Corrinn did a great job! She provided updates often and seemed to really bond with my kitties. I have 4 senior cats that have special needs and I felt very at ease with them in her care. They are very routine orientated and Corrinn didn’t miss a beat with the feeding and medicine schedules. I would definitely rebook and recommend her.”

“After my usual pet sitter broke her ankle, I hired Breanna to look after my dog for a week. Everything went well, I’m happy to say.”

“Haley was great! She took great care of our dog, allowing us to really enjoy our vacation. We will definitely use her for services in the future and recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter!”

Ashley Y.

“Hannah-Marie was wonderful! She communicated with us the entire time and sent pictures of our pups. While we were away, there was a snow storm. She updated us on the weather conditions and accommodated when we considered having to make travel changes. I would definitely recommend Hannah-Marie to anyone!”

Lacy B.

“She was great with Milo he is a big ball of energy and she kept up with him! He has allergy medication she was able to give him and got cute pics of him and her daughter playing very sweet :)”

About: Hi, I'm Kathleen. I’m a lifelong dog lover with 15+ years of experience dog sitting, walking, and caring for pups of all ages, breeds, and needs. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, daycare, overnight boarding, house sitting, and even bathing and basic grooming (like nail trims and brush-outs). Pick-up and drop-off available anywhere in New Albany, Gahanna, Westerville, West Albany, Central Village, Newark, and Johnstown. I'm work part-time from home, so your pup will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. I walk about 4 miles daily, and your dog is welcome to join me for part or all of those walks. I’m within walking distance of three dog parks (if you permit), and close to amazing walking trails like Taylor Farm Park & Nature Reserve, Bevelhymer Park, Blendon Woods, and Rocky Fork — perfect for fresh air, exploration, and lots of tail wags. I grew up helping my parents care for their Westie puppies — they were home breeders and it was my daily chore (and joy!). Since then, I’ve rescued and fostered dogs, including those with special needs (low/no vision, senior, anxiety, picky eaters, etc.) I’m experienced with special diets, medications, senior dogs, and those needing extra care and patience. Whether your pet is active or mellow, young or aging, I tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. And of course — unlimited belly rubs included. Your dog will be treated like part of the family while you're away. Reach out — I’d love to get to know you and your pup! I am retired but do part-time graphic design from home. I enjoying staying at home, and love playing with dogs or just letting they nest and get cozy. I walk outdoors, usually about 3-4miles a day, and would love to have your pup along for any/all of that! I love to take photos so expect many updates. Pick up and drop off to your door available, no problem. I live in a dog friendly apartment complex, so lots of great sniffs! There are plenty of sidewalks, ponds and walking trails (and 3 dog parks within 10 minute walk if you and your put agree on that). Also, if your dog doesn't care for meeting new dogs while on walks, there are several sidewalks and foot paths to make a quick turn to cater to your dog's energy and preferences. First floor so no stairs for senior/special needs dogs. Big windows with cozy beds to lay on and watch outside :-) I live with my active 80 year mom so lots of attention and belly rubs to go around. Also I love housesitting so that is a great option if your pup prefers to stay in their own space. I'm an excellent communicator, very respectful and clean. No smoking, drugs, or alcohol. I look forward to meeting you and your pup!

“Jenna took really good care of our cat while we were out of town. She texted me every day and sent pictures. I will be sure to use her again in the future!”

“Lauran is warm, bubbly and sweet! She instantly took to my two dogs and asked questions about their needs. We are very much looking forward to her next stay and we’d highly recommend her to anyone in need !!”

Savannah R.

“Lauren was absolutely amazing!! She was so kind and loving with Bodi and left my place cleaner than I had it! 100% recommend and will definitely be asking Lauren to help again in the future!”

“Erin watched our 2 large Shiloh Shepherds for 3 days (overnight) and she was wonderful! She took great care of our boys, took time to play with them outside, and gave them lots of love and cuddles. She also sent tons of photos, which was greatly appreciated. Our dogs seem to miss her already! Erin also left our house in great shape and was very communicative during the process. Would absolutely have Erin dog sit for us again!”

About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart—especially after caring for my own sweet Bella, who bravely faced mouth cancer until she passed in December 2023. Helping her eat, move, and feel loved during that time taught me patience, compassion, and the true meaning of care. I also care for Bulleit, our Frenchie, who’s overcome two spine surgeries and may not walk like he used to, but still lives every day with joy and spirit. With over 5 years of experience, I treat every pet like family—giving them the love, attention, and gentle support they need. Whether it’s slow, comforting walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles, I’m here to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and truly cared for. I can’t wait to meet your special companion and be their loving second best friend. I currently work second shift from 4 PM to 12:30 AM, so my mornings and afternoons are free—perfect for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving your pet plenty of attention during the day. I’m also fully available on weekends, making it easy to provide consistent care and companionship whenever your furry friend needs it most. This schedule allows me to focus on making sure every pet I care for feels happy, loved, and well looked after throughout the day. Whether caring for pets in their own home or mine, safety and trust are my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment where pets feel comfortable and relaxed. I always follow the pet parent’s instructions closely—whether it’s about feeding, medication, or special needs—and make sure to keep dangerous items out of reach. At my home, I provide a pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play and rest, free from hazards. In your home, I respect your space and routine, keeping everything just as you like it while giving your pet loving attention and companionship. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, ready to respond calmly to any situation, ensuring they stay safe, happy, and stress-free at all times.
