©2004 GO-FETCH Pet Sitting
You'll still feel like a friend or family member is taking care of your pet.





"I had to go out of town on
a business trip and I needed to find someone to care for my dog, Molly. Molly
doesn’t do well around other people so I was concerned about finding someone
who would be able to take care of her. In addition, there were other concerns
such as:
I have to hand over my house key to someone I don’t know well.
I have to trust that this person will show up as agreed to make sure my pet
is well taken care of.
Will this person know what to do in an emergency?
If you’ve ever had the same concerns, you can put your mind at ease because
the answer is Go Fetch Pet Sitting. Janet is organized, prepared, experienced,
and she knows each animal has its own personality and needs. Janet went out
of her way to make sure she communicated every aspect of Molly’s care
while I was away. I called her several times while out of town and she eased
my concerns. I don’t think she ever sleeps!
I highly recommend Go Fetch Pet Sitting! Janet knows pets and knows how to tailor
pet care for each individual client. It’s a relief knowing that when I
have to travel in the future, Janet will be there!"

the care of my pets & the keys to my house. She did everything that was

the ants. Her compassion even extends to her business practices."

“On such short notice for never having used a pet sitter, and for
wanting our lab in the best hands possible, Janet was like using family. She
did absolutely everything needed in that first hour to assure my wife and I
that we had nothing to worry about. Janet went beyond what was expected. We
appreciate the time, energy, and care that you gave to Riley.”

"Janet saved our wedding day! Having never left our dogs with anyone but family we spent a lot of time deciding on a dog sitter. After we met Janet both Doug and I were comfortable that our dogs were in good hands. Everything seemed like it was all set...It was the day before we were to leave for our wedding destsination. We were running around, family from out of town were all around, and I was trying to soak off some ridiculous manicure I had paid too much for. This is when I took a look at our little Shih Tzu, Monster. His right eye was swollen shut and was covered in goop. Turns out, after a trip to the vet, he had scratched his cornea and it was infected. He had three different medications with all kinds of care instructions. We gave Janet a call and she came over to review the medications within a few hours. She ensured us that the medicine would be administered and everything would be fine. While we were gone, Janet administered all of the medications and kept very thorough notes on Monster's condition, as well as taking care of our other dog and one cranky cat. During one of her visits she thought Monster's eye didn't look so good so she took him straight to the vet, and ended up making an extra visit to check on Monster.
All I have to say is Thank You very much for taking care of
my family."
Alora and Doug K.
“You care about animals first; that is, your business seems secondary.
You are very thorough and you do everything in your power to provide a good
service. I felt comfortable leaving my children pets in your care. I felt like
we have the same feelings about animals.”
Maury M.
"Janet loves animals and brings that to her job everyday. Not surprisingly,
the animals love her back. So...everybody's happy!

was fantastic with our two boys. She was flexible with our changing schedule
and helped with our stress by cleaning up after the boys spilled grout all
over the house! She was great!"

and the extra touches like fixing the crooked blinds.”
Kevin & Lisa C.
"We were new to the area and didn't know anyone well enough to ask them
to watch our cat and house while we were on vacation. We contacted Janet, who
responded quickly to our inquiries and seemed very capable. She did not disappoint.
When we returned home from vacation, the cat and house looked great! We received
a great diary of all Jane's antics and other household notes. We will definitely
call Go Fetch again."

"I’m a dog rescuer. That is how I met Janet Smith
--- I sometimes took my rescue dogs for care or boarding to the veterinary hospital
where she worked. I quickly discovered that Janet was very knowledgeable about
companion animals, both medically and behaviorally, and also very compassionate.
Her love for and rapport with animals showed in everything I ever saw her do.
She often gave extra effort for a sick animal or a worried owner, or would spend
extra time with a lonely dog in boarding. She’s also very responsible,
honest, and conscientious. She got involved with the rescue animals and helped
me and other rescuers in many ways, and continues to volunteer her time for
rescues.
When Janet announced her intention to start a pet sitting business, I thought,
that’s great! She has a wonderful personality for this work, and with
the veterinary experience, the experience dealing with the often special emotional
needs of rescue animals, dog training experience, and as a pet owner herself,
I think she’s marvelously prepared to be a wonderful substitute “mom”
for pets whose people don’t want to leave them in a boarding situation.
If I ever need a pet sitter, I’ll call Janet first."
