There are many benefits to using a Professional Pet Sitter. As Professional pet sitters, we are trained on many aspects of care including CPR and First Aid, anxiety, medicinal administration, and medically needy pets who require just a bit more attention to make their world more comfortable. Your neighborhood sitters are ready and willing to help out when you need them but what happens in the case of an emergency? Will they know what to do? We truly cherish your pets and care for them as we do our own. With a Professional Pet Sitter, you can rest assured that your pet receives the highest quality care from a knowledgeable and dependable source.

Why choose a Professional Pet Sitter in your home?

Some pups or kitties just do so much better when their owners are away by having a companion with them in the comfort of their own home. Maybe your kitty is a social butterfly that needs/craves attention in order to thrive or the solitude terrifies them. Your pup may be elderly, socially challenged, or perhaps accustomed to having you at home and changing that routine is just too much.. 

No matter the reason, we have Professional pet sitters who are trained on Pet CPR and First Aid, who would love to spend one-on-one time with your fur-baby. Having someone watch your house and your pet can be a win/win scenario..

Benefits for Dogs:
 
  • Outside stimulation – Dogs thrive on the ability to use their senses – to see, smell, and hear new things.
  • Socialization – Proper socialization  is essential to gaining skills to properly interact with others in and outside of their world. 
  • Peace of Mind –  knowing that your pup is getting great care so you don’t have to worry about their wellbeing and can focus on what you need to.
  • Behavior – A tired dog is a calm dog. Walking helps to release tensions and excess energy. 
  • Consistency – Having a schedule, for a pup, helps to keep them entertained with outdoor visits and unwanted messes from happening. 

We have several years experience & decades of loving animals under our belts. With us, your dog will develop a great relationship with their specific daily walker insuring a great experience during their routine. We feel it’s important to know all their little quirks, the places they like to sniff, and their favorite spots so that the time we spend with your best friend is quality time that really suits their needs. See our pricing for special rates for weekly recurring mid day walks. Ready to get your pup out of the house for a bit? Let’s TALK the walk!

Benefits of a Cat Sitter

Cats – on the other-hand.. are, sometimes, very independent creatures when it comes to some feeding and toilet routines. And, although some are extremely anti-social and happy to be left alone, others are totally dependent on human interaction. Most of the families we work with travel a number of times throughout the year and we have become a trusted part of their extended family providing an array of caregiving to their feline companions, no matter how social their furry friend is.

Benefits for Cats:

  • Lots of attention, love, pampering and kitty games
  • Food and fresh water daily, including special diets and cleaning their dishes
  • Litter box scooping and accident clean up
  • Special care if needed; medications, etc.
  • For the scaredy cats who prefer solitude, we’ll hang out and chat.. just in case they change their minds. This is where consistency comes into play.
