Cool Critters Pet Sitters.
We offer a wide range of services including mid-day dog walking, overnight pet and house-sitting, small animal and kitty care. We offer a pet chauffeur service to and from appointments and we even have concierge services for pet parents! Each pet has a personalized care plan detailing the pet owner's specific instructions.
Visit our Services and Rates page for more information.
We will meet with potential clients, answer any questions and get "pet-approved". At that time we can fill out a personalized care plan for your pet detailing your specific instructions. We will discuss the options of receiving a key, house code or using a lock box at that time also.
No obligation and no charge.

I highly recommend Cool Critters Pet Sitters. We’ve used them many times over past couple of years. They took great care of our dog, Faith, and our home while we were traveling. They are professional, trustworthy and so loving for pets in their charge.
Cool Critters Pet Sitters is the only dog sitting service I use, and I will never go back to kennel boarding! Cool Critters Pet Sitters provide the love and attention our dog was missing during boarding. Robin and Merry have years of experience with pets having various health conditions and I fully entrust them with our dog, Nera's, supplements and medication needs. Nera loves the overnight dog
Tootles and Popsie loves Cool Critters Pet Sitters!
I have been involved with Merry and Robin for several years of them taking care of my babies. My experience with them has been delightful! My cats love them and I would highly recommend them to care for your babies. They really go above and beyond!
