Reviews

They were very easy to work with, willing to give our cats medications and genuinely cared about them. Lorrie was very helpful getting things set up and Diana did an awesome job, we really appreciated the updates from her visits.
R Thorne , 8/23
I absolutely LOVE the care our caregiver, Kylah, gives our guinea pigs! She has wonderful, thorough communication, is reliable, takes great care to read and remember the care information, and is very diligent about making sure the guinea pigs have a a healthy environment. I couldn't be happier or more pleased with her care and would highly recommend her to anyone!
D. Reier , 7/23
Excellent, dependable service from my pet sitter Susan and scheduler Gina. Eric and Lorrie Culp are managing this Fetch franchise well! My dogs (there have been 3 throughout the years all watched over by Fetch) have been well cared for and the messages and pictures sent with each visit give me great peace of mind. Some of those pictures catch my Westie in full "Westitude" mode! Brings a smile to my face each time!

Quality Care for Your Precious Pet

Dog Walking

Having a hard time keeping up with your pet's daily dog walk routine? Let us walk the walk for you! Our professional, loving dog walkers will come to your home, leash up your furry friend and take them on a walk in your neighborhood during a 30, 45 or 60-minute visit.

Cat Care

We all know cats love attention, and we will help them exercise as well. During our 30 minute visits we will feed your kitty, scoop the litter, refresh their water and provide loving care until you arrive back home. We can also bring in the mail and newspaper, etc., but our main focus is always on your kitty. We can use your interactive toys, such as lasers, toy mice, and birds on string to entice your kitty's natural prey moves and get them up and moving!

Puppy Care Program

Bringing home a new puppy is so exciting! The trouble is, this can also lead to torn shoes, random potty stains and other bad habits! During their early months, good habits have to be learned. With your direction, a dedicated Fetch! pet sitter will help your puppy learn proper habits and become more sociable. They will also assist you with basic leash training. With our Puppy Care Program our Fetch! pet sitter will be with your puppy for a 30 minute service the 1st daily visit and a 15 minute potty break during the second daily visit. Before leaving, he or she will ensure that your home and puppy are safe and secure.

Your sitter will come to your home between 5-6 pm to feed, water, play and cuddle with your pet. The sitter will spend the night at your home and depart the next morning between 7-8 am . They can also bring in the mail, water your plants, etc., but their main focus is always on your pets. It's almost like you were home!

"Almost Overnight" Pet Sitting

"Almost Overnight" Pet Sitting service provides your pets with a 3 hour evening visit in your home as well as another 30 minute visit the next morning.
