About the owner, Paul.
As a former high school teacher, Paul worked part time as a pet sitter/walker when not teaching. After engaging in this role for several years and expanding his clientele, he made the decision to establish his own professional pet service. His affection for animals originated from his childhood experience of owning dogs and cats.
Paul’s initial responsibility involved caring for the pets within his neighborhood, which, in retrospect, seemed to foretell his current lifestyle. Alongside his teaching profession, he also possesses a background in the service industry, and it’s ingrained in his nature to educate and satisfy others. He eagerly anticipates becoming your pet’s second best friend!

Q. What type of clients do you work with?
Q. How are you different from other pet sitting services?
Q. Why should a pet owner use a pet sitter?
Q. Tell me about your hiring process for the pet sitters.
Our recruitment process at DTX Pets is thorough and rigorous. It begins with a face-to-face interview to assess candidates’ qualifications and suitability for our team. Following this, we conduct comprehensive reference checks and complete background screenings. Prospective sitters undergo a trial period to ensure compatibility with our standards and values, as validated by feedback from our clients. Moreover, all sitters hired by DTX Pets are required to adhere to and sign our Code of Ethics, affirming their commitment to upholding the highest standards of professionalism and care.
Q. What services do you offer?
Clients have the flexibility to customize the duration of their DTX Pets visits according to their needs. Additionally, we offer supplementary premium services to enhance both pet and house care routines. In addition to pet care, our team assists with tasks such as mail retrieval, trash removal, light rotation, and curtain adjustments to maintain the appearance of an occupied home while our clients are away.
Q. Will you provide those “gate-keeping” services even if someone doesn’t have a pet?
Clients have the flexibility to customize the duration of their DTX Pets visits according to their needs. Additionally, we offer supplementary premium services to enhance both pet and house care routines. In addition to pet care, our team assists with tasks such as mail retrieval, trash removal, light rotation, and curtain adjustments to maintain the appearance of an occupied home while our clients are away.
Q. So, you don’t board animals or bring them into your homes?
Q. What time do the sitters make their rounds and how long do they stay?
- Early Morning: Between 7 AM and 10 AM
- Midmorning: 10 AM and 12 PM
- Midday: Between 12 PM and 3 PM
- Afternoon: Between 3 and 6 PM
- Evening: Between 6 and 9 PM
We guarantee that no more than 12 hours will elapse between visits. For instance, if your pet is visited at 8 PM, our sitter will return no later than 8 AM the following morning.
Clients have the flexibility to choose between 30-minute and 60-minute visit durations, allowing them to tailor their pet’s care plan to their specific needs and preferences. Mix and match options are available to create the optimal care routine for each pet.
Q. Are there extra costs for services rendered on a holiday?
Q. What is the registration meeting?
We do not commence service until this meeting has occurred. A fee is associated with the registration meeting, which covers administrative expenses related to the client’s account setup, as well as compensates the sitter for their time spent during the meeting.
Q. So, after a client has completed their registration meeting can they schedule service anytime?
Absolutely! At DTX Pets, all our clients get their own login details for their special account. They can use this account to schedule services, check their service calendar, update billing info, and change their password whenever they want. We confirm scheduling requests during our regular hours, from 9AM to 4PM, Monday through Friday. It’s a super handy tool that makes managing pet care a breeze!

Q. So, after a client has completed their registration meeting can they schedule service anytime?
- They can become dangerous to the dog and the walking.
- They allow the dog to get away from you, potentially in trouble or harms way.
- Leashes are for structure and direction to the dog. Retractable leashes don’t
provide that. - Retractable leashes can break easily and, in some cases, can cause burns or
other injuries to walker and the dog.
Q. How about last-minute requests?
Q. What happens if a client’s primary sitter is not available for a pet sitting request?
Q. Can your clients schedule directly through their sitter?
Q. What do cat visits include?
Q. How do you handle all of your client’s keys? You must have a ton!
Please note that DTX Pets will not assume responsibility for keys that clients request our sitters to keep on file. This policy ensures the security of our clients’ property while maintaining our commitment to safety and accountability.
Q. So, if you don’t keep their keys on file how do the sitters access the homes?
Here’s how it works: When a DTX Pets sitter arrives, they retrieve the key and lockbox from the door and hold onto both throughout the assignment. Then, during the final visit, the sitter returns the lockbox with the key securely inside to the door. Upon their return home, the client can simply remove the lockbox. It’s a seamless and hassle-free process that provides peace of mind for both our clients and our team.
Q. How do you accept payment?
Q. So, you don’t accept checks? Can the clients leave cash?
Q. What does it mean that you are bonded and insured?
The dishonesty bond provides reassurance that you’ll be reimbursed in the unfortunate event of theft or loss during our service. It’s a proactive measure to protect our clients’ valuable belongings.
Additionally, our liability insurance policy covers any financial loss resulting from accidents while caring for our clients’ pets. This ensures that our clients are not held liable for any unforeseen incidents that may occur during the course of our services.
As a responsible and professional business, we believe it’s essential to carry both forms of protection. We’re more than happy to provide our clients with proof of insurance and our bond. Simply let us know, and we can easily email you copies of our certificates for your records. It’s all about transparency and ensuring peace of mind for our valued clients.
Q. Do you care for pets that have aggression issues?
Our sitter will conduct an interview with both the client and the pet to assess the situation. If additional visits are needed to help the pet acclimate to our care provider, the client must be present during these visits and standard service fees apply until the pet is comfortable.
Please note, if at any time during the service our sitter or the pet owner feels it’s unsafe to proceed, we reserve the right to discontinue service without prior notice. This ensures the safety of our team and the pets in our care while upholding our commitment to exceptional service.
Q. Do you administer medication?
Q. How do the pet care professionals discipline the pets?
Additionally, we do not employ shock collars or any other aversive techniques. In the rare event of a behavioral issue, such as toilet training problems or wandering tendencies, we prioritize open communication with our clients. If such incidents occur, we promptly inform the client and collaborate with them to find constructive solutions. Our goal is to ensure a harmonious and positive experience for both pets and their owners, fostering trust and mutual understanding every step of the way.
Q. What happens if a pet becomes ill and the client is out of town or unable to leave work?
In the event that we’re unable to reach you, we’ll assess the situation and make a judgment call on whether veterinary care is required. If deemed necessary, we’ll take your pet for treatment. Please note that any additional time spent and expenses incurred for these services will be billed accordingly.
Our top priority is the well-being and safety of your pet, and we’ll always take prompt action to ensure they receive the necessary care and attention.
Q. What is the DTX Pets cancellation policy?
Q. How does a client go about getting started? How quickly can that happen? What if they have additional questions?

I’ve been very happy with your services.
It was the very first time we used Pet Nanny’s service and we are very satisfied how our sitter, Lauren Emes, took care of our bunnies. She sent us emails daily, keeping us posted about our pets. Being away from home, we felt very confident that the bunnies were well fed and happy. We think that Lauren genuinely loves animals and that she got well bonded with our bunnies. We believe they loved her back.
Thank you for the great service. We will definitely use Pet Nanny again.
Our dog loves his sitter,Cathy, and she is flexible for when we need her and the visits we need. It is easy to book services and easy registration process. Thank you for the great service. We will definitely use Pet Nanny again.
Lauren provided us with frequent updates on how they were doing and notified us that one of our dogs was not urinating. Turns out she had a UTI. Lauren was kind enough to drop her off at the vet on our last day as we were traveling home, which gave us comfort that she was getting medical help immediately.
Love the ability to schedule and review billing via email. Also, service is very attentive when I’ve needed it.
Anny was great with sending pictures and communication. She also helped turn on a light and throw out something I left out! So easy to book.
Lauren was amazing!! Above and beyond caring for our senior dogs.
Anny was great! When we arrived home, Juno was exhausted and learned new tricks! You could tell that Juno was well taken care of and played with upon arriving home.
My pet sitter, Shanda, took great care of my kitty! Shanda sent me texts and pictures every visit which gave me such peace of mind. Everything has been very professional.
Mariann has been AMAZING with Zoe! We could not have asked for more during our transition. We are very thankful we found pet nanny and even more thankful we have Mariann in our lives! Your company is efficient and responsive!
We had two Pet Nannies, Sydrea and Phoebe. Phoebe stepped in when Sydrea was unable to continue working due to illness. Both sitters were excellent. They kept me well informed throughout the transition, and took care of my daughter’s guinea pigs precisely as instructed. They also seemed to genuinely like animals, and it was a comfort to know that the piggies were in such good hands. The Pet Nanny office is prompt, pleasant, accessible, well organized, and reasonably priced.
