Your Pets Mean the World to You. Give Them THE BEST.

We know how difficult it is to find trusted and reliable pet sitting while you’re out of town. You’ve come to the right place.

For over 16 years, more than 1,000 clients have trusted Away Home & Pet Care to provide world-class pet sitting services for their furry family members.

Each pet is unique so we customize each of our visits to the needs of your pets. Your pets are your furry family members and we promise they’ll be safe, comfortable and loved on while you’re away.

Before we begin services, we will schedule an enrollment meeting at your home so we can get to know you and your pets. We want to make sure we’re the right fit. 

You will provide us with detailed care instructions, and we promise to follow them. You’ll never have to worry if your pets are receiving the care you hoped.

 We may not be you, but we’re the next best thing.

Our Pet Sitting Includes ...

Our Mobile App

We get these questions a lot. Here are our best answers...

We are fully licensed, bonded and insured. Our pet sitters undergo a rigorous background check before being allowed into your home.

Our industry leading scheduling software keeps track of our sitters at all times. We know where they are and when they visit your home. If they aren’t on time, our office is promptly notified so we can activate our backup plans. In addition, you will receive an alert via our mobile app when your sitter has arrived at your home and you’ll receive a detailed report card and pictures at the conclusion of the visit. 

You will be assigned a primary pet sitter based on the needs of your pet. We assign pet sitters that will best fit the personality of your pets. While we try to keep the same pet sitter on all visits, depending on the length of your vacation and the number of visits required, we may utilize additional sitters to provide coverage. This is a benefit to using Away Home & Pet Care vs. a hobbyist pet sitter. 

With over 16 years professional pet sitting experience and over 1,000 clients, we have vast experience caring for a wide variety of pets. There aren’t many animals we don’t care for. We care for dogs, cats, birds, fish, snakes, guinea pigs, chinchillas, ferrets, mice, prairie dogs, sugar gliders, bearded dragons, and most common farm animals including horses, mules, donkeys, goats, pigs, and chickens. Have another animal we haven’t listed? Just ask.

Pet sitting in your home is the ultimate in luxury for your pets and convenience for you. Our services are fully customizable according to your pet’s needs. We are a full-time professional business that takes your pet’s safety seriously. We are certified in pet first aid and CPR, fully licensed, bonded and insured and this level of dependability, professionalism and peace of mind is priceless. Many people are often surprised at how inexpensive this level of care can be.

For homes with multiple pets, we are especially cost effective when compared to placing your pets in a kennel or boarding facility.

We absolutely are! We are a full time, highly professional pet sitting business that takes our reputation very seriously.

Our online reviews speak for themselves. Please feel free to check them out before making a decision to hire us. If you’re still not convinced, we are happy to put you in touch with some of our clients who are happy to recommend us.

We do! We are highly experienced in administering medications to pets. Whether it’s liquid medications, pills, injections, subcutaneous fluids or inhalers, we do it all. At the meet and greet we will document your pet’s routine and ensure your pet’s profile is updated in our software so their information is at your pet sitter’s fingertips during each visit.

We customize our services to meet the needs of your pets. As a general guideline, puppies require a visit every few hours. Adult puppies require a visit 2-4 times daily. Most clients choose 2 or 3 visits, but we find that 3 visits per day is optimal. Cats require at least 1 visit per day. We do not provide every other day visits for cats.

One of the benefits of hiring Away Home & Pet Care is that we work as a team. This means we have backups available in the event your primary sitter has an emergency. One of our managers will visit with you at the meet and greet and get a feel for your pet’s personality. We will then assign the perfect pet sitter for your pets.

If it is critical for you to meet your pet sitter, we offer 30 minute introductions for $30. While we assign a primary pet sitter to care for your pets, we may call upon other team members to provide continuity of care. We do our best to keep the same pet sitter assigned to your pets, but rotation of sitters might be necessary due to the length of your vacation or sitter availability.

It could get costly for you to schedule various pet sitter introductions so if having the exact same sitter every single time is essential, you may want to investigate hiring a solo pet sitter. Be sure they have backups available in the event of an emergency.
