Hey Dog Lovers,
First introduced by Pet Sitters International (PSI) in 1995, Professional Pet Sitters Week™ takes place annually the first full week of March. This annual observance honors professional pet-care providers, seeks to educate the pet-owning public about the advantages of professional in-home pet care and encourages pet-loving entrepreneurs to explore professional pet sitting as a viable career.
My personal favorite pet sitters company is We Let the Dogs Out LLC, they service the whole shoreline in CT. They are always professional and offer tons of services. Check them out for all your dog walking and boarding needs.
Biggest advantages:
- Your pet can stay at home, in their safe, familiar, secure environment – with familiar scents and their stuff surrounding them.
- Some older pets which easily get stressed by environmental change or travel can stay at home.
- It’s easier for pets to stick to their normal routines.
- Pets who stay in their home environment are less likely to be exposed to illness from other animals in a care facility.
- A pet-sitter gives your pet individual attention and you won’t have to inconvenience friends, neighbors and family members.
- With consistent care from someone you know, you and your pet can reduce stress.
- You save precious time because you won’t have to transport your pet to and from a care facility.
- Your home will appear more secure with a pet-sitter staying there, eliminating indicators of an unoccupied home.
- A pet-sitter can give you updates about your pet.
- You come home to a pet who is well-exercised, well-rested, well-fed and very happy to see you!
