Why Sittsy gives you peace of mind
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.
