Personalized care for your pet—without breaking the bank
Thousands of drop-in visits booked. Thousands of happy pets.
Is your dog happy to nap at home all day—or is your dog actually a cat? Instead of a full-time pet sitter, book someone to drop by a few times a day to feed and check on your pets. Drop-in visits are great for:
- Low-maintenance dogs
- Cats and caged pets
- Help with small household tasks
- Long-term bookings
