Welcome!
Thank you for visiting RENEE LEWIS PET SITTING.
Our motto: "TLC for your pets in your absence."
When you travel do you have the added stress of deciding which family member or friend will care for your pet(s) this trip or must you take your pet to a boarding kennel or animal hospital? Do you worry about your pet becoming ill because it may be exposed to unhealthy animals? Or do you have pets like horses, pigs, cattle or chickens you cannot take to a kennel? Then we would like you to consider the best option; pet care in your home environment. RENEE LEWIS PET SITTING will come to your home and care for your horses, house pets, barnyard animals, caged animals, etc. In-home care provides the least amount of stress for your pets and certainly for you.
HOW WE CREATE OUR PARTNERSHIP
When you choose our services, we will come to your home for a complimentary pre-care visit to learn your care routine, first hand. Together we will complete a Pet Care Agreement so you are assured we are prepared to provide the level of care you desire for your pets. We recommend establishing a Pet Care Profile before you need it so in the event of an emergency we are already aware of your preferences.
REVIEW OF YOUR PET'S CARE
Upon returning from your vacation, business trip or unexpected emergency we will provide a written review of the time spent with your pets. This review outlines any unusual behavior, whether or not animals ate & drank and our observation of your pet's general well-being.
OTHER SERVICES
In addition to providing pet care, since we visit your home once or twice daily (depending on the pets) and give your home a “lived in” look for added security. If requested we will rotate shades, indoor lights, water house plants, collect the paper, put out and collect trash cans.
We will be happy to provide the "lived in" look even if you do not have pets. Please call for details.
CARE IN YOUR HOME
All over the country, pet sitting is fast becoming the most popular choice for pet owners. Pet sitting is convenient and cost effective and as previously mentioned, the safest and least stressful pet care option. Most boarding kennels charge based on a per-pet basis and can only offer care to traditional house pets. Many people have more than one pet and some that cannot stay in a kennel, so the cost involved with boarding adds up quickly. RENEE LEWIS PET SITTING will work with you to adhere to your existing schedule to accommodate you and your pets for an affordable fee. Overnight stays in your home may be arranged.
CARE IN OUR HOME
Some pets may qualify to be cared for on pur property. If you have small to medium-sized dogs who are well-behaved and potty trained, we will consider caring for them at our home. We do not provide a boarding kennel atmosphere, we would care for them in our home and treat them as a member of the family. We allow dogs ‘at will’ access to our fenced yard through small doggy doors. We welcome your inspection, by appointment.
