Frequently Asked Questions
WHY SHOULD I USE A PET SITTER?It is believed by top veterinarians and pet experts that keeping pets in their familiar surroundings helps to alleviate the stress imposed when their owners have to leave home. Pets are then able to stay on their customary diet, maintain their usual exercise routine and sleep in their own bed. By letting your pets stay at home you can avoid exposing them to the trauma of kennels, possible illness and fleas. Plus they'll get personal, loving attention provided by a pet sitter.
