The
Atlanta
Kennel Alternative
Pet
sitting began in
Atlanta
in the mid 1970s. It was a NEW
service at the time aimed at frequent travelers and others looking for an
alternative to
Atlanta
kennels. In the decades since,
Atlanta
pet sitting has grown with the city and now is a sizeable business area in
Metropolitan Atlanta, employing hundreds of people and caring for tens of
thousands of pets and homes each year.
Critter
Sitters, Inc. dates back to 1975, one of the first companies to provide an
alternative to
Atlanta
kennels. The company has grown and
prospered since. It now offers
services throughout the metro area and in the Golden Isles area of the
Georgia
coast. Over one hundred fifty Atlanta
pet sitters work with the company, providing care for over 30,000 homes and
over 50,000 much loved pets each year.
Critter
Sitters provides care for pets when their owners are away or when their
schedules require an
Atlanta
dog walking service. Many clients
depend on the convenience and dependability provided by Critter Sitters to
maintain their lifestyles. With
arrangements made in advance, clients have no need to deliver their pets to an
Atlanta
kennel or pick them up on their return.
During
the decades of growth since the 1970s
Atlanta
kennels have been pushed ever further into the suburbs.
Intown animal lovers have increasingly opted for pet sitting as an
alternative to using Atlanta
kennels, for reasons of both convenience and care.
And pet owners throughout the extended
Atlanta
area choose
Atlanta
pet sitters as their preferred pet care alternative.
Not every pet should have an
Atlanta
pet sitter, and the company regularly makes referrals to
Atlanta
kennels, veterinary clinic boarding facilities and doggie day care providers.
By the same token, many
Atlanta
kennels and other care providers actively recommend Critter Sitters when an Atlanta
pet sitter is the best option for pets.
Boarding
facilities are not pet vacation heaven. The
pets are typically caged almost all day and night.
The facility is noisy, dark at night, and full of unfamiliar and possibly
frightening smells. Usually the food
is different from what your pets are accustomed to eating.
In addition, because many kennels are affiliated with veterinary offices,
the kennel does double duty as a hospital for pets recuperating from surgery and
disease.
