Dog Day Care is a great option for your dog while you are at work. However some dogs may feel stressed by dog day care. Also, some pet owners may not have time to pick up/drop off their dog each day. Dog Walking or Running from your home with a Professional Pet Sitter is a viable alternative.
*We LOVE our local doggie day cares & boarding facilities & we will be happy to recommenced one if Sarah’s Pet Sitting cannot meet your needs. Each pet family has individual needs & may find one service works better for them than another, or they may want to alternate days of dog walking and doggie day care for the best of both worlds.
We surveyed some local dog day care facilities in Cheshire, Wallingford, Hamden, Meriden, & Southington, CT and the average cost for Dog Day Care for ONE dog is $24.70 per day. If you book Monday through Friday the average cost for one dog is $22.45 per day for one dog.
Cost for additional dogs from the same family for doggie day care varies. One facility charges an additional $17 per day for a second dog, for a total of $42 per day for Doggie Day Care for TWO dogs.
Sarah’s Pet Sitting offers Afternoon Dog Walking from your home, Monday through Friday. The cost ranges between $18-$22 per day for ANY number of dogs. We can leash walk up to THREE dogs at a time that walk well together. Or we can let ANY number of dogs out in your fenced in yard for a potty break & playtime. Please “Request Info” for an estimate.
Afternoon Dog Walking with your Professional Pet Sitter is a great alternative for dogs who do not enjoy dog day care, do not like other dogs, get sick on car rides, or have a parasite or other health issues that prevents them from going to doggie day care.
We only require vaccines REQUIRED by law, which is Rabies every three years. NO parasite testing is required.
We hope to be meeting you and your pets soon!
We can't wait to meet you and your pets!
