Food, water, medication
Just leave us your pet's feeding instructions and food and we'll see to it that when you go away they get their meals as they're used to them...when they're used to them. Sticking to their regular feeding routine as closely as possible goes a long way to alleviating the stress they feel when you're not there. If they're on a course of medication, we can make sure they get that too. You shouldn't have to worry about your pets during a trip...leave the essentials to us!
Plants, newspapers, mail, security
Plants also need feeding and as long as you don't have a full scale botanical garden in your apartment, we'll water them at no extra charge. Plus we can take care of the other little things too, like taking your newspapers in and emptying your mailbox. We can also switch lights, TV's and radios on and off at set times to give the impression that someone's home (and to make your pets feel secure).
Playtime, love and affection
This is the easist and best part of the job as far as we're concerned! You can leave a thousand TV's and radios on but when it comes down to it there is no substitute for real, physical human contact when it comes to your pets. If they want to play, then we want to play too! NYC apartment cats, for instance, get virtually all of their exercise through play and it's as vital a part of their day as dinner time. Now where's that ball of string?
Overnight stays
Most pets expect and rely upon affectionate company during the evenings and overnight - and while you're obviously their first choice, they're really going to appreciate the warmth and love of a caring overnight pet sitter during your time away. We pride ourselves on providing a second to none New York City pet sitting service which provides your little guys with everything they need when you're not there.
Your peace of mind
We fully understand that no matter how professional, dependable and reliable your pet feeding service is (guilty as charged!), you're still going to worry about them. That's why with King Pup, you should never hesitate to call us at any time to confirm that they're OK. This especially applies to owners of sick or disabled animals or pets who feel separation more acutely than most. And, er....if you want to speak to them over the phone in a silly voice, we'll simply turn our backs and never mention it to anyone. We promise. Hey, everyone does it!
