Note from the Owners, 2023

Since our creation in 2005, most of the pet sitting community has moved to various Facebook forums.  As such, we no longer offer an active message board.  Our group materials are not being regularly updated, so some of the guides and info may be a bit outdated.  Because of health issues, we do not expect this to change. We still feel it is very important to keep the website available for the benefit of our longtime members and the industry.  Please keep these limitations in mind if you wish to join. 

What is Professional Pet Sitting & Dog Walking?

Professional pet sitters offer pet owners the advantage of familiar, clean, and safe pet care in their own comfortable home. The pet sitting industry of today offers daytime dog walking services, vacation pet sitting care, pet taxi and transportation, and yard poop scooping services.  A professional pet sitter is someone who has taken care to train, independently insure themselves, and conduct their business with the type of professionalism that you expect from someone who will be coming into your home and caring for your furry family members.

If you are looking for a professional pet caregiver to provide at home pet care for your beloved animals, please use the search box to access our Pet Sitting & Dog Walking directory.
