A pet sitter is a person who takes care of pets while their owners are away. This service can include feeding, walking, and providing companionship to animals like dogs, cats, and other small pets. Pet sitters often visit the pet's home or may offer boarding services in their own home. Many pet sitters are trained in animal care and may have experience with various breeds and species. They help ensure that pets remain safe, healthy, and happy during their owner's absence. Some pet sitters also provide additional services, such as administering medication or grooming.
