Over the weekend, we saw a comparison chart posted by a dog-walking app that indicated that “local walkers” did not offer the same features as their platform.
While we cannot speak to providers listed on that specific app or other similar apps, at Super Paws Pet Care, we are a locally owned, professional pet-sitting company, and we can confidently say our team is trained, vetted, and committed to providing safe, reliable, and personalized care for every pet we serve.
A professional pet sitter and/or dog walker:
🐾Operates a registered business
🐾Carries liability insurance (designed for pet-care businesses)
🐾Provides proof of background check
🐾Uses written contracts
🐾Invests in continuing education
🐾Has emergency protocols
In fact, professional providers can deliver more consistent, relationship-based care than app-based options, where experience and training can vary widely.
Many local, professional pet sitters and dog walkers also offer:
✔ Photo and video updates
✔ GPS tracking & route reports
✔ Online booking & payment options
🐾 doesn’t just apply to retail stores and restaurants. Contact your local professional pet sitter or dog walker to learn how they can improve your pet’s care…and simplify your life!
