Many owners are understandably reluctant to leave their pets at home alone when they have to go away, be it on business or for a vacation. We can provide an assortment of options to help out in this situation. These include having the pets come and stay with us, leaving the pets at home and having us come by to visit them on a regular basis, or having us come and actually stay overnight at your home while you're away.

House Sitting is where we move into your home and take care of it while you're away. House Sitting includes all of the services of our regular pet visits. In addition, dogs will be taken on a short walk or yard break in the morning and again at night. House Sitting provides extra security for your pets and for your home in your absence.

In addition, we collect mail, get your newspaper, put out/ bring in trash cans, alternate interior/exterior lighting, water plants, and ensure that your home has that lived in appearance.

If you have a high energy dog that requires extra activity we will be happy to take him on our group outings at no additional charge.






  • In your home, your pet remains in his or her secure environment, where all the sights, smells and sounds are familiar.
  • In your home, your pet follows his or her customary diet and exercise routine.  Some pets get very depressed and may stop eating in a pet care facility (see note below at end of page).
  • Your pet is not traumatized by travel in a vehicle.
  • In your home, your pet is not exposed to other animals, diseases, fleas, ticks and other parasites.  Most pet care facilities do their best to keep things at bay, however, it only takes one infected pet to spread it from pet to pet in close quarters.
  • In your home, your pet is not traumatized from other pets trying to fight with them (pets can go home with cuts, scrapes and bites) in a group environment at a pet care facility.  Some pets become aggressive with other pets when they go home.
  • Your pet will be less stressed left at home.
  • Your pet will stay happy left at home.  Some pets will come home with diarrhea, anxiety, destructive chewing, and other behavioral problems after being in a pet care facility.
  • And you, too, will be less stressed knowing that your pet is in the environment best suited to his needs and being well taken care of.
