About Athens Pet Sitter

Thank you for your interest in Athens Pet Sitter.

We are a family run business and we consider our clients, both humans and pets, to be part of that family.

We believe that, when you’re away it’s nice to have the peace of mind knowing your pets can stay in the safety and comfort of your home and maintain their normal routine.

So we have designed a range of services to meet the varied needs of dogs, cats, other pets — and you.

Our Sitters are First Rate

We contract ONLY dedicated pet care professionals.

We work with sitters who have practical experience in the pet care field and view their time with Athens Pet Sitter as part of their career path.

We run an extensive screening process on all our sitters.
