Pet sitting isn’t just about loving animals—it’s about knowing how to care for them in every situation. Unfortunately, a troubling trend has emerged in our neighborhood: unqualified pet sitters offering services without the necessary experience, education, or protections in place.
As a Certified Professional Pet Sitter and member of Pet Sitters International, I have dedicated my career to providing the highest level of care. My company, Crockett’s Critter Care, follows strict protocols to ensure the safety and well-being of every pet we care for. I started my business in 2009 with insurance, education, and professional memberships—not as a casual side gig, but as a serious commitment to the pets and families I serve.
Would you leave your child with an untrained babysitter? Then why trust your pet to someone who lacks experience? Many pet sitters advertising online or through free apps do not carry insurance, are not bonded, and have no formal education in pet behavior or emergency response. They may not know what to do if a dog shows signs of distress, an illness goes unnoticed, or an unexpected situation arises.
Real-life tragedies happen when pet care is taken lightly.
These heartbreaking incidents are preventable when pet owners choose professional care.
At Crockett’s Critter Care, we don’t aim to be the biggest pet sitting service—we aim to be the best. Our focus is on providing exceptional care, professional service, and ongoing education that ensures pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
✔ Advanced Training & Expertise – In addition to my credentials as a Certified Professional Pet Sitter, I have expanded my qualifications to include specialized training in working with sensitive dogs.

✔ Secure & Professional Systems – We use industry-leading software for scheduling, invoicing, visit notes with pictures/videos, and client communication.
