Why Choose "In-Home" Pet Sitting & Cat Sitting?

At Dogs On The Geaux! LLC, we provide "in-home" pet sitting and cat sitting services which means pet care is carried out in your own home. For pets that have a hard time being boarded, in-home service can be the  perfect alternative. In fact, many of our clients who use our service for the first time wonder how they've ever managed without us! There are numerous reasons to love our in-home pet sitting and cat sitting services:

  • It allows your pet to remain in a familiar, comfortable, safe environment without the stressful, noisy atmosphere that can be found in many boarding facilities.

 

  • Your pet's normal feeding and exercise routines are uninterrupted while you are gone. 

  • At home service guarantees your pet will receive individual care with plenty of love, attention and TLC.

  • It eliminates inconvenient drop-off and pick-up times associated with boarding facilities.

 

  • Your pets potential exposure to contagious illnesses from unfamiliar pets is eliminated.

 

  • Our in-home service relieves you from having to rely on family, friends or neighbors for help. Unfortunately, lack of knowledge and experience when caring for pets can result in mishaps even with the best of intentions.
