Why hire a pet sitter?
Your pets are happiest when they are home, surrounded by familiar sights, smells, and sounds. For many years, pet owners had few options when they were away from home for an extended period- either ask a friend or neighbor for help or pay to have them boarded at a kennel. Neither of those solutions is the best choice for your pet. Professional pet sitting offers an excellent alternative.
-
Pet sitters come to your house to care for all your pets and your home.
-
No more of the anxiety that often results from leaving a pet behind or placing your pet in a strange environment.
-
Owners do not need to create stress transporting pets away from their homes and then worry that they might be exposed to other animals' illnesses.
-
Your pets stay safe and comfortable at home, maintaining their regular routines and following their regular schedule.
-
Your pet will be pampered by a caring and dependable professional using all the care instructions that you specify.
Do you worry the neighbor or friend might feel burdened or possibly forget to visit your pets?
It's a legitimate concern. With Ocala Pet Sitting you can rest assured that your pets and schedule are our priority. This isn’t a hobby or a favor, and we won’t cancel on you at the last minute. We have experience in animal behavior and we are skilled at noticing the little things that matter to your pet and home’s safety. A professional pet sitter is insured and bonded and of course, has a love of pets, but a professional also holds themselves to a much higher bar of accountability than your average hobby sitter.
Ocala Pet Sitting has many years of experience with birds, sugar gliders, snakes, chinchillas, and other exotic pets. We know they are sensitive to changes in their environments and easily stressed, and we are able to recognize the signs and notify you immediately. With exotics, we know an ounce of prevention goes a very long way in keeping them happy and healthy.
Experienced, professional pet sitting allows owners to confidently leave their pets at home, knowing that they will receive the love and care they so rightly deserve.
