Cat Sitting in Columbus, OH

Hi! I can't wait to meet you and your fur baby! I have worked mainly with dogs, cats, and horses for several years and have worked and shadowed with small animal vets! I work at OSU in clinical research! I have experience with giving medications, cleaning, and feeding with specific needs. I currently am a dog foster mom through PAWS!

I don’t mind getting up early, so I am available when your kitty needs me! When I am with your kitty, I spend time with them and make sure they are comfortable and happy! I love working with shy kitties and love when they finally warm up! I have about 6 years of consistent pet sitting experience...

I don’t mind getting up early, so I am available when your kitty needs me! When I am with your kitty, I spend time with them and make sure they are comfortable and happy! I love working with shy kitties and love when they finally warm up! I have about 6 years of consistent pet sitting experience. I make sure your home is clean when I leave and let you know if anything seems off with your home or fur baby! I love getting to know every kitty's individual personality and needs. I am comfortable giving medications and injections. I keep note of how much they are eating/drinking and using the bathroom. I am happy to do household things like taking out the trash, getting mail, or any other tasks that might need done while you are away!

My mom was allergic to cats so, growing up, I spent time at animal shelters and taking care of other people's kitties or the barn cats where I rode horses. Because of this, I have a lot of experience with many different types of cats! I can do overnights or drop-in visits and have experience with both.

I did my undergrad in Zoology at Miami of Ohio. I was on the Pre-Vet track, so I have experience working in vet's offices.

Madison did a great job watching both of our kitties while we were out of town! We were nervous leaving because one of them was on medicine for the first time, but she was able to give our cat her medicine with no problem.

This was our first time having Madison hang out with our kitties. She did a wonderful job and was very responsive. Madison sent detailed play by plays each day and great pics of the cats, which helped ease our travel anxiety. She followed our detailed instructions well and got in some good play time with all of our cats. We (and our cats) hope Madison will come hang out again in the future!

Madison was so great with our kitties. Our shy girl Bitsy came to investigate which is rare. Macy Lou has a new favorite person and my boy Moose was purring when we got home. The updates came at the perfect time and she captured some really cute poses We feel secure in knowing she loved our cats like we do!

This is our second time leaving in her charge of our kitties and just like last time, we came home to clean litter boxes, fresh water dishes and very happy cats. Madison sent great pictures and kept us well informed of how they were doing.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

Columbus cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

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

Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet!
