Adventures In Pet Sitting has recently been accepted for membership in Pet Sitters International (PSI).
By joining PSI, owner MiKayla Anders has reinforced Adventures In Pet Sitting's dedication to offering professional, quality pet-care services and increasing their knowledge of the pet care industry.
"I am proud to be part of Pet Sitters International and to be part of a large group of professionals around the world who have a passion, like mine, of caring for animals," said Anders. "I grew up a few miles from Rolling Hills Zoo and was a Junior Zoo Keeper at the zoo. I have also worked with a wide variety of animals at the Sedgwick County Zoo and have worked for a doggie daycare. I am thankful for all of my loyal customers and the animals I get to work with day-in and day-out."
Anders started the business more than three years ago after graduating from Kansas Wesleyan University with a Bachelor of Science degree in biology and a minor in ecosphere studies. Since the business began, more than 200 dogs, 60 cats, several exotic birds, fish, ducks, and other pets have been cared for in the place the pets are most comfortable with, their homes.
PSI is an organization of nearly 7,000 independent professional pet-sitting services throughout the United States, Canada and abroad. Founded in 1994, PSI is the world’s largest educational association for professional pet sitters.
As a PSI member, Anders has access to important business tools and educational resources, including pet-sitter liability insurance, PSI’s Certificate Program, ongoing online training and PSI’s annual Pet Sitter World Educational Conference & Expo.
For pet owners, in-home pet sitting provides a unique alternative to boarding facilities or relying on family or neighbors to check on pets. Pet sitters come to the home daily and animals are able to keep their regular routines for meals, walks, medication and one-on-one care and attention. Owners report that their pets experience less stress and adjust better to their owners’ absence when the pets remain in their normal environment.
