Who We Are

Pet Sitting Connection was founded in 2023 in Texas and is modeled after our parent company, Babysitting Connection.

After booking over 40,000 babysits, we realized there was a great need in our community for high-quality pet sitters as well and we knew how to make it convenient and the best option! At Pet Sitting Connection, we provide our members with a wide array of sitters from a variety of backgrounds with a variety of experiences.

Have a dog that needs someone to come walk it while you’re at work? We’ve got you covered. Does your cat need to chase a string and have it’s litter box changed? We have sitters who are happy to stop by! Worried about keeping your five animals entertained while you’re out of town, we have sitters who can stay overnight!

Frequently ask questions

Our matches range from 6 weeks to 3 months in duration. After your match ends, you can always discuss extending the match with your sitter. While some of our families have been matched with their sitter(s) for over a year, the average is 3 months.  
 
We do this to provide both you and your sitter(s) with flexibility. You are not locked into any long-term agreement like you are with a nanny. This means you can choose to try out a new sitter, leave the program, or continue with the same sitter if they are still available at the end of your match. 

Because you are booking with a sitter consistently and for 1+ months out, we recommend offering a higher hourly rate than you would pay to a sporadic sitter you book through our system. While you do not have to offer a higher hourly rate, you cannot offer a lower rate. You can see our rates here and then decide what your family is willing to pay.

Yes! For our Consistent Care program we allow families to virtually chat with and book test sits with a potential match. We do not allow in-person interviews, but we encourage a virtual chat with any potential matches and we require at least one trial sit with a sitter before scheduling your consistent sits.
