In Home Pet Sitting
From dogs to cats, birds to farm animals, we match you up with a pet sitter that pairs best with your pets needs! In 1999, we started solely as a pet sitting service. Many of our pet sitters have been with us for over fourteen years, so you can trust the experience behind the care of your pets and home. New pet sitters are carefully selected, and hiring is contingent on passing a criminal background check. Once hired, new employees go through a comprehensive training program.
Staying In Touch
We put you in direct contact with your pet sitter so you can keep in touch and check to see how your animals and house are doing at any time. Daily pictures and updates will be texted to you!

In Home Dog Walking
Our dog walks are 45 minutes and can either be a brisk walk around the neighborhood, or a leisurely stroll for the older pet to help with stiff joints. We can also include ball playing in the backyard for the active dog! Your dog will benefit from the exercise and outdoor stimulation, and you will arrive home to your dog being in a calmer state of mind - and tidier house!
Helpful Tips
For new customers, we request a 72 hour-notice to arrange pet sitting services with a Pet Sitter that best fits your needs, schedule a Free Meet & Greet, and get all necessary paperwork and payment taken care of. While we do our best to accommodate last minute requests, in situations where a 36-hour notice is not possible, a $25 fee will apply.
Please be sure to communicate clearly with your sitter for important information concerning dates of service, when you are leaving and returning, your vet phone number and a local emergency contact number.
