Overview

When a pet parent has to be away from home, either for a trip or long hours at work, or becomes unable to care for a pet for some other reason, e.g. illness, being able to keep the pet at home, in the environment the pet knows, and being able to follow the pet's routine, are very important to the pet's well-being.

Most pet parents know their pet does not adjust well to a strange environment or a break in routine.

HELPING PETS KEEP THEIR ROUTINE IN THEIR OWN HOME IS WHAT WE DO BEST!

We provide professional pet care in the pet's home with personalized visits from 1 to 4 times a day, any day of the year. We can even stay overnight on occasion.

We provide meals, encourage exercise and playtime, clean up after accidents, administer medication, walk dogs, and provide an array of other pet-care services to suit many needs.

This page outlines some of the benefits and advantages of using our services ... but don't just take our word for it, have a look at some of the testimonials from our many satisfied clients.

 

ADDITIONAL BENEFITS — those specific to a service we provide are outlined on the page describing the service.

Your pet will be happy, safe, and comforted

   L E S S   S T R E S S

Your pet stays in his/her own familiar, secure environment where all sights, smells and sounds say "Home!" — this means your pet will not be stressed and will eat. It also means your pet will be able to sleep (boarding facilities and kennels are loud places where pets often lack the ability to sleep because of constant noise from other pets).

 D I E T   &   E X E R C I S E

Customary diet and exercise routines are followed without an interruption that could stress your pet's healthy regiment.

   N O   " T R A V E L   T R A U M A "

Travel in a vehicle to a boarding facility or a kennel is avoided.

   H E A L T H   C O N C E R N S

With in-home pet care, the risks of exposure to illness of other animals, e.g. kennel cough or fleas, are eliminated. In addition, medication and medical treatment is provided on time by a professional and qualified sitter.

You will have peace of mind

   N O   D R I V I N G

You won't need to drive your pet to the home of a friend, family member, or to a boarding facility or kennel; and you won't need to drive to pick up your pet afterwards.

   N O   I M P O S I T I O N

You won't need to impose on a friend, a family member, or a neighbour to help care for your pet. Instead, you can rely on a dedicated professional whose job it is to give priority to the needs of your pet before anything else.

   S E C U R I T Y

We are insured & bonded, which means you are covered and protected if something unexpected happens. Also, your home is made more secure since regular visits to your home give it that "lived in" look that deters criminals — a benefit you and your home insurance provider are sure to welcome.

   N O   W O R R I E S

While you are away, you can feel confident that your pet is in capable, qualified caring hands. Our sitters are trained in pet first aid, CPR, and emergency care; they are familiar with the contents of our Emergencies Handbook; they have regular access to experts with years of experience in the animal health care field.

   S P E C I A L   S E R V I C E S

We offer additional medical care services that friends, neighbours or kennels would not normally provide. And while caring for your pet, we can also water plants and bringing in your mail, newspapers, etc.

Your home will have increased security
