I'm Angela | Cat Sitting in Columbus, OH

For over three decades, I’ve devoted my life to caring for and understanding cats of all personalities, ages, and needs. Through my work at one of Columbus’s most reputable cat shelters (saving lives since 1945!), to fostering dozens of tiny kittens, to providing a loving home to my own feline family, I’ve truly seen it all. I can proudly say that I have enthusiastically looked after hundreds of cats. As your Cat Nanny, I offer you: *Expertise* Thirty years of hands-on experience, I’m fully prepared to handle anything from bottle-feeding newborn kittens to caring for senior cats with specific needs. *Reliability You Can Trust* Clear communication ...

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently reside with two outstanding cats. Lily is my beautiful fourteen year old tortoiseshell. Lily can play a mean game of ping-pong using crinkly mylar balls. Her paw to eye coordination is remarkable. Pokey is my six-year-old that keeps me entertained with his quirky antics. He stole my heart when I took him in as a foster when he was a few weeks old. I fell in love with him and the rest is history. Pokey and Lily are my absolute pride & joy.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

The following are qualities to look for: Patience: Cats can be shy or skittish around new people. A good sitter knows how to give them space and let the trust build naturally. Observant: They should notice subtle changes in your cat’s behavior or health (e.g., eating less, unusual hiding). Reliability: Sticking to feeding and care schedules is crucial for cats, especially for those with strict routines. Dependable: They should show up as promised and follow all care instructions to the letter. Communication: Timely updates with photos and detailed notes.Quick to notify you of any issues, from minor quirks to emergencies. Comfortable with Cat Behavior: Understands purring, hissing, and everything in between. Skilled with Medications: If your cat needs meds, the sitter should be confident and experienced in administering them. Calm Under Pressure Emergency Preparedness: Knows how to handle unexpected situations, like a sick cat or a sudden escape Of course you must have a Feline Enthusiast.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I feel the meet & greet is an integral part of my service. I want to prepare for both routine and surprise occurences. Please make a list that includes where food, litter,and bowls are kept. Where are the cleaning items, and which ones do you use for any little mishaps. We will discuss your cats personality and their normal routine Where are their favorite places to hang out? Which activities do they like most? Are there medications that need to be administered? Please supply me with your veterinarian's phone numbe. I want to meet with your cats and spend a little time to get to know them.

Angela was great and even got my very shy cat to come out for pets and treats! she went above and beyond by checking our mail and pulling our trash cans in so we didn’t have to miss a week of trash service while we were away!

Frequently Asked Questions

Columbus cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $30.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in your sitter before you leave.

Cats are territorial animals and don't do well in new environments. The presence of other cats, dogs, and even birds in kennels or animal hotels cause an immense amount of stress for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
