Are you a busy working family? Do you occasionally need a pet sitter or a dog walker? If you are like most families, both parents are busy working and the children are busy with school activities. Where does that leave the family pet? Did he/she get companionship or a walk today? If you are searching for pet services but not sure where to start, look no further than Sittercity.com.
No matter where you live, you just enter your zip code and the website will find you several pet sitters / walkers that are within several miles of your home!

Sitter City is a free service that helps you find the perfect dog sitter or dog walker for you. But, I was skeptical, after all, these things usually work best in big cities, but for me, in the middle of rural PA, I didn’t think I’d find much of a selection of dog walkers.

My request of 10 miles within my zip code provided me with 25 dog sitters / dog walkers! I was surprised! Each dog sitter was listed with references and reviews, work experiences, skills and certifications and job preferences!

Some of the sitters have provided a background check that verifies legal name, current address, social security number, aliases, and previous addresses. It also provides a check for criminal records. With all this information, you can feel secure about your new pet sitter / walker!

There are also links to child care, senior care, home care and tutoring.
