Professional vs. Solo Pet Sitters

Why It’s Worth Hiring a Licensed, Insured Pet Sitter or Dog Walker with a Team Behind Them
Because your pets deserve more than a maybe.

When you're away from home—whether for work, vacation, or just a busy day—you want peace of mind knowing your pets are in the best hands. While it might be tempting to hire a solo sitter, a neighbor, or even a family member, there’s a lot of value in choosing a licensed, insured pet sitter or dog walker who is part of a professional team-based business.

At Beach Buddies Pet Services, we’ve seen firsthand how our team approach gives pets and their owners more reliability, protection, and peace of mind.

Licensed and Insured for Your Protection

Life happens—even with the best pet sitters and dog walkers. That’s why it’s critical to hire someone who is both licensed and insured.

Your Pets Deserve More Than a Favor

Professional pet sitters and dog walkers treat your pets like family—not a favor or side job. They’re trained, dedicated, and passionate about what they do.

Choosing a professional pet sitter or dog walker with a team and proper credentials isn’t just the safer choice—it’s the smarter one. Your pets are part of your family, and they deserve care that’s dependable, loving, and professional.
