Pet Sitting vs Pet Boarding
Going out of town and not taking the family pet with you? Consider Walkie Doggie in-home pet sitting services instead of placing your pet at a boarding facility. Pet owners choose pet sitters as an alternative to pet boarding for the following reasons:
Your pet is not exposed to pet or dog boarding facilities with sick dogs or cats
Your pet is happier and will experience less stress by staying home
Our services can be cheaper than pet boarding facilities especially when multiple pets are involved
Allows your family, friends, and neighbors not to be bothered
We provide you with peace of mind by having a more secure home by us maintaining a "routine" appearance by rotating your lights, bringing in mail, etc.
Easier and more convenient for you!
Example Comparison
Assume $25 per day per pet at a pet boarding facility; Assume $18 per 30 minute pet sitting visit; and Assume two pets in your household. The cost for one day at pet boarding facility = $50 The cost for two- 30 minute in-home pet sitting visits = $36. Your Savings = $14 Per Day.

Customer Reviews
Review 1
The pet sitters for Walkie Doggie came to the house and they were excellent. They come out first and meet with you and the dogs. They take a questionnaire about the dogs, their habits and what you want them to do. They will pick up your mail and turn on or off any lights that you want. They are there for 30 minutes for $16 and that is a great price. They will come twice a day if you want them to and they will walk them for 30 minutes if you want them to. They would stay overnight for a higher price and they will give them their medications if they need to. It does not matter how many animals either. They will bring in your mail if you want. I do not know if they will take the trash to the curb but they will turn the porch light on and off if you want and any other little stuff like that. They text you every morning to tell you how everything is going and their price is very reasonable. They get right back to you. They were there on time and very professional with me. Whenever I go out of town, I will call them up.

The pet sitters that run and work for Walkie Doggie are absolutely fantastic!! We love this service and so do our animals. Christy Williams runs a fantastic business and Donna, Mendy, and Amanda are wonderful to our animals. They are so sweet and nice and really care for our dogs and cats. We would be in a real pinch without them! And we trust them above and beyond!

I just moved to Evansville and a co-worker recommended Walkie Doggie. Christy Williams (owner) is wonderfully responsive to e-mail, which I love. Donna (our sitter) is caring, friendly, and amazing with my two cats and big, crazy mutt. The dog loves her and she handles him beautifully, even though he's not easy to walk - and we have no fenced yard so he must be walked! Highly recommend this company!
