Services
Dog Boarding
Our cage-free home boarding provides a safe, comfortable environment for dogs. Pets enjoy free roam of sitters' homes, daily adventures like park visits, and one-on-one attention. With a maximum of four pets per home, we ensure personalized care and reduce anxiety through consistent human interaction.
Dog Walking
Customized walks include playtime, feeding, and medication administration. Sitters focus exclusively on your dog during each visit, offering GPS-tracked check-ins and a 'Pupdates Log' for transparency. Services range from 20-minute walks to full-day adventures tailored to your pet's needs.
Cat Sitting
Our cat sitting includes playtime, feeding, litter box cleaning, and medication administration. Sitters visit homes to maintain your cat's routine in a familiar environment. Prices remain consistent regardless of the number of cats, ensuring stress-free care for multi-pet households.
Home Boarding
Pets stay in sitters' homes with 24/7 supervision, avoiding the stress of kennels. Services include daily photo updates, flexible scheduling, and personalized attention to dietary and medical needs. Sitters undergo background checks and training to ensure high-quality care.
Overnight Sitting
Overnight services maintain pets' routines in their own homes or sitters' residences. Sitters provide companionship, feeding, and medication management throughout the night. This option reduces separation anxiety while ensuring safety and comfort for extended absences.
