Yes. Doggie LatchKey is fully insured and bonded, providing liability coverage for your pets and property. Every sitter on our team passes a thorough background check before being hired.
We maintain strict protocols about home access. This level of accountability and security is why families choose established local businesses over gig-based apps.
Our sitters are trained and experienced in administering medications, including pills, liquids, and injections. We’ve cared for diabetic pets requiring insulin, senior dogs with arthritis medications, cats on multiple prescriptions, and animals recovering from surgery.
During your consultation, we discuss every special need in detail. We create clear protocols and document everything so your pet receives exactly the care their vet recommends. For pets with behavioral challenges, we match you with sitters experienced in those specific situations.
