Why Sittsy gives you peace of mind

Does your pet get nervous when you're away? Cats get stressed when they leave home: with Sittsy your cat stays in its own territory, with its scents and routine, and you verify every visit.

Verified visits: photo, time and location

On every visit the sitter sends photos in the moment, with their time and GPS location. Photos from another day don't count: you know the visit really happened.

Care schedule and max time alone

You set your pet's routine and how long it can stay alone; the sitter sees it and Sittsy helps make sure it's respected. Designed for pets with separation anxiety.

You see the sitter's other pets

On their profile and calendar you see which other pets they have or host on those days. When you book we tell you if your pet will overlap with others, so you can confirm they're a good fit.

Weather and caring for your dog in Dallas

The next two weeks in Dallas are looking hot: 13 of 14 days top 86 °F. Plan walks for first and last thing. Indoor cats notice it less, but it’s worth keeping the house cool and leaving fresh water out during visits. 14-day forecast (Open-Meteo); updated daily.

Toughest day: Fri 18 Sep, 99 °F. Walk only first thing and at dusk; completely avoid the middle of the day (12–7 pm). Check the asphalt with the back of your hand: if you can't hold it for 5 seconds, it burns their pads. Always fresh water, and watch brachycephalic breeds, puppies and older dogs.

Rain

Shorter walks and a raincoat if your dog tolerates it. Dry paws and coat well on return to avoid colds and fungus.

Very hot

Walk only first thing and at dusk; completely avoid the middle of the day (12–7 pm). Check the asphalt with the back of your hand: if you can't hold it for 5 seconds, it burns their pads. Always fresh water, and watch brachycephalic breeds, puppies and older dogs.

Heat

Move walks to early morning and the evening, look for shade and bring water. Avoid intense exercise in the sun.

Ideal

A perfect day for dogs: make the most of it with a long walk, play at the park or some socializing.

Air quality and walks in Dallas

Air quality is getting worse these days in Dallas: it reaches “very poor” (index 82). Ozone rises with summer heat and is worst in the afternoon, so the air gets worse just when the sun is strongest. European air quality index (Open-Meteo); updated daily.

What to do these days

Limit intense exercise and walk first thing, when the air is cleanest. Take special care with brachycephalic dogs (bulldog, pug, boxer), puppies, older dogs and those with heart or respiratory problems.

  • Janice

    For 6 months before we moved, Shawna walked our 3 dogs with constant attention and enthusiasm. I appreciated her clear communication and reliability. If she was still close by I would jump at the chance to hire her again.
