Why Choose a Pet Sitter?
Are you trying to decide why you should choose a pet sitter over a kennel or vet’s office to care for your beloved furry family member while you are on vacation, need to tend to family business, going in the hospital for a few days, or needing to take a business trip?
It's simple. You love your pet and want to provide him or her with the best care possible, in the environment s/he is comfortable and feels safe in, and with the schedule s/he is used to.
“Choosing the right pet sitter can be equally as challenging as selecting a babysitter for your child,” says John D’Ariano, president of the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters. “The person you choose should be trained and professional.”

Why You Chose
Affectionate Pet Sitters ...
Are you trying to decide why you should choose one pet sitter over another? It's no secret. All Professional Pet Sitters have many of the main things in common ... they KNOW HOW to care for your pets and they are COMMITTED to caring for your pets. Most Professional Pet Sitters are also Insured and Bonded.
Some pet sitters are trained in one regard or another in pet health care ranging from being Certified in Pet First Aid, being a Vet Tech, or having a background that lends them to knowing how to care for an injured or sick pet, and then there's experience. Depending on your pet's needs, you may need to choose someone who is qualified in one or more of these areas.
All pet sitters follow a schedule in caring for the pets on their roster for that day/week. All sitters know that when they start their day, aside from a basic routine, they never really know what their day will hold, and therefore have to be flexible.
Beyond that, it's a matter of how you, your pets and the pet sitter "fits."
You would have chosen Affectionate Pet Sitters because we have had a successful pet-sitting business since 2008. We were fortunate to have experience with all ages and many breeds of dogs, cats, birds and many other kinds of pets; older pets; and pets with medical needs. [As an aside, I am also an extremely knowledgeable about Schnauzers ... they are my heart pup!]
We have been blessed to know (and have known) so many wonderful families who have allowed us to share in their precious pets' lives. We are truly richer as humans, to be able to do our "job" and get love in return!
“Pet-sitting was my full-time and only job.
I was fully invested in taking care of your pets.
There are only a few things more rewarding than being greeted
by someone else's pets the same way mine greet me
when I walk through the door. That's how I know I have
made an impact on their lives.”
