Does your pet get nervous when you're away? For pets with separation anxiety, Sittsy keeps their routine, their environment and a limit on time alone that you decide.

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.

All animals love her, they love the way she treats and talks to them. She is good with scared and nervous pets. Massages them so they beg for more. She will give you peace of mind knowing your furbaby is in good loving hands!

Shanna is so great with my dogs. We have a German Shorthair Pointer and a German Shepherd (not easy dogs to walk). These two absolutely love her and look forward to their walkies with her! We highly recommend Shanna!
