1.Where are you located?

We are located all throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn. Even though we have management offices on the Upper East and Lower East Side of Manhattan, our dozens of host-family homes are spread over most neighborhoods in the city to help accommodate our clients' needs.

2. I will be traveling to New York for business/vacation. Can you accommodate me?

Absolutely. Whether you are a long-time New York resident or traveling here for business, we will match you with your pet's ideal living situation.

3. My dog/cat does not play well with other animals. Do you have host homes where they can be the only animal?

Yes, indeed! Depending on your furry friend's preferences, we can place them in a home with or without other playmates.

4. Do you charge extra for weekends, holidays, or if I live in walk-up apartment?

No, no and no! Our fees are the same 365 days a year. Our pet sitters are active and healthy adults and we see no reason to charge additional fees for climbing stairs.

5. My dog just needs to be walked during the afternoon while I'm at work. Do you provide this service?

We sure do. Our dog walking service is a full half-hour of personal pooch attention. Our professional dog walker will spend at least 30 minutes with your pal. You may customize the use of the time; IE. A 15 minute walk followed by 15 minutes of indoor training or play time... We can also feed your dog at no additional charge.

6. What is the minimum/maximum number of days that my pet can be cared for?

We have no minimum day requirements for cat sitting, dog walking, daycare, sleepovers or hotel visits. We do ask for a minimum stay of 2 nights when boarding in one of our host-family homes.

7. Can I receive a recommendation from a current or past client of yours?

It would be our pleasure to put you in direct contact with another client of ours. Once we discuss your needs and find the perfect sitter, we can have a past client of that sitter get in touch with you. We take tremendous pride in the qu laity of our sitters and the service we provide, and are thankful to have received such great feedback from past clients.

8. Will I get to meet my pet sitter before I make my decision?

Absolutely, yes. We'd have it no other way. We want every pet sitting job to be perfectly matched for both the client and sitter. A complimentary play date or meet-n-greet is set up on your schedule to assure chemistry and a proper fit.

9. Are your pet sitters properly screened?

Our pet sitters must pass a thorough screening process in order to be asked to join our network of professional pet sitters. Each one has been through a lengthy interview making certain their intentions are equivalent with our business model. They have had their homes checked to be up to our rigorous standards and are legal to work in the U.S. Plus, each pet sitter is insured and bonded through Pet Sitters International

10. How much advanced notice do you require?

As much or as little as you can provide. We understand that last-minute emergencies, business trips and much needed get-a-ways are part of a busy lifestyle, and we specialize in finding you the perfect pet sitter at a moment's notice! Of course, giving more advanced notice is always appreciated.

11. Will I be able to use the same pet sitter every time?

It is always our goal to maintain consistency when caring for your pet. On the rare occasion your usual pet sitter is unavailable due to scheduling conflict, a temporary suitable match will be provided.
