Why Sittsy gives you peace of mind
Does your pet get nervous when you're away? For pets with separation anxiety, Sittsy keeps their routine, their environment and a limit on time alone that you decide.
Truly exclusive attention
If the sitter hosts only one family at a time, Sittsy blocks those dates so no one else can book them. Your pet doesn't share their sitter.
Photo updates throughout the stay
You get updates and photos while your pet is being cared for, and the whole history is saved in the Sittsy chat.
Care schedule and max time alone
You set your pet's routine and how long it can stay alone; the sitter sees it and Sittsy helps make sure it's respected. Designed for pets with separation anxiety.
You see the sitter's other pets
On their profile and calendar you see which other pets they have or host on those days. When you book we tell you if your pet will overlap with others, so you can confirm they're a good fit.

Frequently asked questions about Day Care
What are day care hours?
Most in-home day care providers offer care from early morning (around 7am) until early evening (around 7pm). Many are flexible and can accommodate different work schedules.
Is my dog suitable for day care?
Day care is ideal for social dogs who enjoy the company of people and other animals. Dogs with aggression issues or severe separation anxiety may need specialized care.
How many dogs will be with my dog?
In-home day care typically hosts small groups of 2-6 dogs, unlike commercial facilities that may have 20+. This means more individual attention for your pup.
What should I bring for day care?
Bring your dog's regular food, any medications, and perhaps a favorite toy. Most sitters provide water bowls, treats, and play equipment.
