What’s the difference between a Professional pet sitter and a hobbyist?

A Professional pet sitter is more knowledgable and well-trained in animal behavior. We are more experienced with different types of animals and understand the proper ways to handle certain dogs, cats or birds, including health and medical needs. We are insured, bonded, and certified, which means your pets are in the best care possible when you are away! You never have to worry about your pets being neglected. We are punctual, reliable, honest, caring, experienced, and knowledgeable. Our pet professionals are background checked, and we promise to do our very best, every time and provide quality services to you and your pets. We make it our priority to ensure our clients are 100% satisfied with service each and every visit!
