Why choose a Pet Sitter

Many pets, particularly dogs and cats, prefer a set routine. A professional pet care sitter will keep your pets on their regular food, exercise, play, medication and sleep schedules.

With in-house sitting, your pet is spared the stress that comes with transporting to an unfamiliar place. Instead, he or she will have the comfort of recognizable sights, smells and sounds.

There is no risk of exposing your friend to illnesses that stem from being housed at a kennel.

An added bonus of hiring a professional in-house pet sitter is that their presence will help your home appear lived in while you are gone. And if an emergency arises, the sitter can immediately contact you, which is better than arriving home to an unexpected problem.

Your friends and family will not be inconvenienced. Although your loved ones have the best intentions, they may not meet the same standards as a professional pet care sitter with whom you can set clear expectations and a solid business relationship.

A pet sitter who comes to your house is more convenient than taking time out of your day to transport your pet to and from a boarding kennel.

Although most pets do well with a professional in-home pet sitter, animals with behavioral issues or separation anxiety may fare better at veterinary boarding facility or kennel. Any concerns you have should be discussed with your pet’s veterinarian or sitter, both of whom can help you decide the best line of care for your pet.

Finally, when you get home, your best friend will be there to greet you!
