Why Hire a Professional Pet Sitting Service?

Your Safety & Security

  • Your pets avoid exposure to illness, rabies and fleas from other animals
  • Our regular visits help to safeguard your home against crime
  • You can travel daily or overnight knowing that your pet and home are safe and secure.
  • No need to impose or rely on friends, family or neighbors.

Trusted In-Your Home Care

Just like anyone, pets are comfortable and familiar with their home. Taking them to a kennel causes unnecessary stress. Hearing other dogs barking all day and being in an unfamiliar environment can exhaust a dog or cat. A great pet sitter eliminates this anxiety by providing personalized service in your home.

An exercised dog is a happy dog.

Most kennels charge extra for this service. A great pet sitter will not only give your pets that one-on-one attention that they deserve, we also take them for a walks at each visit and provide lots of snuggle and playtime!
