I'm Sandra

Cat Sitting in Columbus, OH

Cats are my thing, I find them to be the most beautiful, graceful, entertaining and lovable pets we could ever make part of our family. I appreciate their intelligence and marvel at the things in the human world they manage to figure out. I found a picture of 3-year-old me holdin... Cats are my thing, I find them to be the most beautiful, graceful, entertaining and lovable pets we could ever make part of our family. I appreciate their intelligence and marvel at the things in the human world they manage to figure out. I found a picture of 3-year-old me holding my first cat. I have been a cat mom in the 70 years since. My baby girl, Piper, is my constant companion and my best ever roommate.

I prefer to sit in Worthington, Westerville (only taking new clients west of Hoover Dam), Polaris area, Dublin (east of 270S) and Lewis Center.

Learn More About Sandra

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have had cats most of my life. I have been cat sitting for Meowtel for four years. It’s a great way for me to earn extra income.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

Over the Christmas holidays I had an assignment that included 3 cats and the must adorable little rabbit you’ve ever seen.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

As I’ve said, I have had cats most of my life. Currently I have 1 cat who is 14 years old. Her name is Piper and we are great roommates. She has taught me routines to follow and if not followed I know about it.

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

Take a look at the number of years they have been with Meowtel and if they have a five star rating. See how many repeat customers they have. Read the reviews.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am. All of my activities around the holidays are local and I can cat sit around them. You can enjoy your holidays and not worry about your furbabies.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I try to introduce myself to them, even if I can’t see them. I let them make the first move toward me. Sometimes shaking a bag of treats will bring them out.

Sandra did a great job. My Kokomo is something of a scaredy cat. She's not fond of strangers. Yet Sandra sent me a photo of her every day (eating, sleeping, peeking around corners). That was great reassurance for us that she was well kept while we were far away. She respected our house as well as our cat. Thank you..

Sandra provided the best of care to our 18 yr. old kitty. Besides feeding, keeping litter box clean, Sandra also gave Sophie her thyroid and appetite meds. I got an update and photo each day. It meant so much to have such a kind and professional woman to look after our kitty.

Sandra took great care of our 2 cats! She was able to give one cats his daily medication which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She was kind and quick to communicate, sending us daily updates and pictures. We would definitely hire her again and are thankful to have found her :)

Sandra did a great job taking care of our two cats. She sent a message every day with pictures or video. I think our cat Alice still misses her! We will definitely book Sandra again.

My cat responded very well to Sandra and came to her for lap time which is unusual with new people. Sandra did all the tasks we asked her to do. She sent us a daily picture of our cat and provided information about how she was doing. We felt very comfortable leaving our cat in Sandra's care and would ask her again in the future.

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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
