What is Pet Sitting?
Pet Sitting allows your pets to stay in the comfort of your own home while you are traveling for work or vacation. It’s an ideal alternative for pet parents who would prefer that their pets not be boarded or kenneled.
When you work with a professional pet sitting company like Waggy Tails, your pet stays at home while you are away. Each day a pet sitter will come to your home for several visits to feed and care for both your pets and your home. It’s that simple!
Our goal is to help keep your pets’ normal routine, so that you return from your travels to a happy, relaxed pet ready to welcome you home.
We offer an easy to use online client portal that allows you to book services and complete payments online.
