West Hartford Pet Sitters Corporate Office

West Hartford Pet Sitters was founded in 2006 by Wayne and Kimberly Thomas in West Hartford, Connecticut. The company operates a pet sitting and pet care business.

Pet sitting is always difficult for pet owners as they don’t know who they can really trust with their home and pets. West Hartford Pet Sitters employees go through background checks, as well as having all references verified. Staff members are employees of the company, not individual contractors or hobbyists. Employees also go through a training program on how to walk and handle most household pets. Random field checks ensure that work is being performed as indicated.

West Hartford Pet Sitters also operates Avon Pet Sitters. The company currently has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
