Specialized care. An upgrade to any service.
Care for pets who need an expert eye.
Some pets need more than a sitter. A vet-tech-trained professional gives medication on schedule, knows the warning signs, and acts fast if something changes. Add it to drop-in visits or house sitting whenever your pet needs it.
A sitter with real medical training.
Specialized care pairs your pet with a sitter trained as a vet tech or animal health professional. They handle what a standard sitter should not. Insulin on a schedule. Post-surgery monitoring. Catching the early signs that something is off, before it turns into an emergency. It is the difference between someone who watches your pet and someone who knows what they are watching for.
Made for higher-need pets.
The senior dog on three medications. The cat recovering from surgery. The diabetic who needs insulin twice a day, on time, every time. The pet with a seizure history, a heart condition, or anxiety that needs a steady, experienced hand. If a regular sitter would make you nervous, this is your tier.
What a specialized sitter does.
- Gives medication on an exact schedule, including injections.
- Watches for changes in behavior, appetite, and energy.
- Knows when something can wait and when it cannot.
- Follows your vet's instructions to the letter.
- Gets your pet to a vet fast if it ever comes to that, and keeps you posted the whole way.
What they don't do.
A specialized sitter is not a replacement for your veterinarian. They do not diagnose, prescribe, or perform medical procedures. What they do is spot trouble early, act on your vet's plan, and make sure your pet gets professional care fast when it counts. Think of them as the trained eyes between vet visits.
An upgrade, not a separate service.
Request specialized care with drop-in visits or house sitting, whichever suits your pet. Your sitter just shows up with the training your pet needs.
Straightforward pricing.
Specialized care adds to the base rate of your visits or house sitting, since it calls for a more highly trained sitter. We explain the exact cost in your consultation, based on your pet's needs. No hidden fees.
Common questions about specialized care.
- Can your sitters give injections?
- Yes. Vet-tech-trained sitters handle insulin and other injectable medications on schedule.
- My dog is recovering from surgery. Can you help?
- Yes. This is exactly what specialized care is built for. We follow your vet's post-op instructions closely and watch for any sign of trouble.
- Are these sitters licensed veterinarians?
- No. They are trained vet techs or animal health professionals. They support your vet's care, they do not replace it.
- What if my pet has an emergency?
- Your sitter acts on the plan we set up with you, gets your pet to a vet fast, and contacts you right away.
