House Sitting: We can care for your home even if you don't have any pets
Basic Home Care Services: Pet and House Sitting services include picking up mail/newspapers, watering plants, checking your home for suspicious activity, etc.
We pet sit for most domestic animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, hamsters, birds, and fish. If you have another type of pet in need of care, please call to discuss your pet care needs.
We care for friendly, non-aggressive pets. We are unable, due to liability issues, to care for any pet that will not allow a pet sitter into your home and that may pose a danger to our pet sitters or other pets in your neighborhood (if dog walking is required).
If you have any special requests or needs, please let us know and we would appreciate the opportunity to help.
