The Purrfect Nanny & Purrfect Pet Health Blog

The summertime is coming and for many of us the question arises what’s the best solution for our pets while we are on our well deserved vacation.

Sometimes I’m still surprised that some pet owners are not aware that they have the possibility to leave their pets at home in the loving care of a professional pet sitter. This is not only an advantage for your pet who is happiest at home but also for the security of your home. Fact is, your home will have a lived in look with all the activity going on. Make sure to hire a pet sitting company who does not advertise their service on the car which will park frequently in your driveway - because that’s an indicator that a service company and not the homeowner or family members go in and out. Most pet sitters, like The Purrfect Nanny team will be happily bring in your mail, rotate blinds, turn lights off and on and more - for no additional charge.
