About
I'm very responsible and I take very good care of my customers And their babies I have great references also. I travel with my business so it doesn’t matter how far you live. I will stay in your home with your pet. I’m an in your home pet sitter.
I love animals and being able to take care of them is the best job in the world. I have a lot of experience with older pets and have worked in a vets office in the past. My out of town prices are higher for pet sitting and checking on pets I have
to add mileage on. It doesn’t matter where a customer lives as long as it is for overnight stays. I am located in Columbus, Indiana. I do have liability insurance for my business. Short visits and standard visits are for Columbus area only. I do dog walking and multiple visits for Columbus
only. I do have references upon request. Thank you. Please check my availability before sending a message I only have a few dates available.

It was a pleasure having M&M PetSitting come stay with our animals. Great with all pets! I wouldn’t even think of having anyone but them in my home with our animals we love so much!

Marlene is amazing. Not only does she take great care of Milo and also sends us pictures while we are gone, she leaves the house spotless! We love using her!

We had Marlene stay with our two elderly dogs in our home for a week and came home and she took great care of them. They seemed relaxed and calm when she was there and we received daily pictures from her. Their medication schedules were followed and the house was cleaner than I left it! I plan to use Marlene in the future and would recommend her to anyone needing in home pet care.

I can’t say enough about MM petsitting. My husband and I have 5 rescue fur babies. We rarely travel together because we feel that we couldn’t find someone we trust to stay with them. Marlene contacted us when she arrived and left. She also sent photos and updates in between. She is detail oriented and took notes while she was here. We have already scheduled 2 additional visits. I highly recommend her services!!!!

I work with there needs and wants. I meet them and get to know their pets.
