What Dog Visits Include

Dog sitting is a professional pet care service where experienced caregivers visit your home to provide your dog with everything they need while you're away. Our daily drop-in visits are perfect for older dogs, less active pets, or dogs who need care beyond regular walks.

Feeding & Fresh Water

We follow your dog's specific feeding schedule and dietary requirements. Fresh water is always provided, and bowls are kept clean.

Medication Administration

We're experienced with administering pills, liquid medications, and injections. Your dog's health routine stays on track while you're away.

Playtime & Companionship

Your dog receives quality attention and playtime during each visit. We engage with toys and games appropriate for their age and energy level.

Household Tasks

We go beyond pet care with watering plants, bringing in mail, adjusting blinds, and other light tasks to keep your home taken care of while you are away.

Time to Pet App

Schedule visits, make payments, and receive detailed report cards with photos through our easy-to-use Time to Pet app. Stay connected while away.

Fully Customizable

Every dog has unique needs. We tailor visits to your specific requirements, whether that's multiple visits per day or special care routines.

Perfect for Older & Less Active Dogs

Dog sitting visits are ideal for senior dogs, less active pets, or dogs who need care beyond regular exercise. If your dog needs a full walk, check out our Dog Walking service instead.

Senior Dog Care

Older dogs need gentle care, medication management, and companionship without the intensity of long walks. Our visits are perfectly paced for senior pets.

Health Monitoring

We monitor eating habits, bathroom needs, and overall behavior during each visit. Any concerns are reported to you immediately through the Time to Pet app.

Comfort of Home

Your dog stays in their familiar environment with their own bed, toys, and routine. This is especially important for older or anxious dogs.
