Sitters for family critters is owned and operated by Kelsey Hockenbury who spent the last 11 years working as a veterinary technician in emergency rooms and intensive care units. Animals have been a lifelong passion for her and now she wants to pass on her knowledge, experience and love by helping you to care for your furry family. She understands that your pets are your family, just as her pets a
re her family, and she will treat them as though they were her own. Her work experience allows her to offer more than the average pet sitter; at sitters for family critters you can be confident that your ill or elderly pets will receive premium care and be well taken care of. You can be comfortable going out of town or going to work for the day even if your pet has just had surgery or is recovering from the all too common “dietary indiscretion.” : )
And cats and dogs aren't the only critters who need care and affection and you can turn to Sitters for Family Critters when you’re looking for help with your exotic pets or even farm animals including rodents, ferrets, fish, birds, reptiles, amphibians, horses and many more. If you’re out of town, sometimes your home needs a little TLC too and we always include that in our services at no extra charge. Whether it’s bringing the trash in or out, bringing in the mail and newspapers, watering plants, switching the lights around in your house, or anything else you might request, we are happy to do it. At Sitters for Family Critters we pride ourselves on offering that little something extra with our additional services. We’re here to meet your dog walking needs or to take your dogs on a trip to the dog park to get there energy out. We can even provide taxi service to a grooming appointment or vet appointment that you can’t quite fit into your schedule. And maybe your pet needs a little something done but you don’t want to take them all the way to the vet for a pricey appointment? No problem! We offer nail trims, a**l gland expressions, medication administration, both oral and topical (including care for diabetic pets), basic bandage changes, teeth brushing, administration of SQ fluids for pets on at-home fluid therapy, and anything else you may request from us.
