Summer is travel season—and while you’re packing your bags and planning your escape, don’t forget about your four-legged family member. While some pet parents consider kennels or boarding facilities, more and more are realizing that dogs are happiest right at home.

At Top Dog Pet Sitting & Dog Walking, we specialize in stress-free staycations for your pets while you’re away. Here’s why your dog would much rather stay on their own turf—with one of our loving pet sitters—than be carted off to a crowded kennel:


Home is Familiar

Your dog knows every corner of your home—where the food bowl goes, where their bed is, and which couch they’re technically not allowed on. Staying in their familiar environment reduces anxiety and avoids the stress of adjusting to a new place.


Personalized One-on-One Attention

At a kennel, your dog might be just one of dozens. With us, they’re the top priority. We tailor every visit to your dog’s needs, whether that’s belly rubs, playtime, slow strolls, or administering meds.


Better Sleep, Fewer Germs

Let’s be honest—kennels can be noisy, chaotic, and full of unfamiliar scents and sounds. Your dog gets better rest and stays healthier in their own space, especially if they’re older or have special needs.


Stick to Their Routine

Dogs thrive on routine. We make sure meals, potty breaks, walks, and snuggles happen on schedule—just like you’d do it.


Peace of Mind for You

You’re not just booking a pet sitter—you’re hiring a trained, trusted, and experienced caregiver who sends updates, photos, and reports so you can relax and enjoy your trip without worry.


What to Leave for Your Sitter

To make your pet’s staycation smooth and stress-free, here’s a quick checklist:

  • Food and feeding instructions
  • Medications and dosages
  • Leash, collar/harness
  • Favorite toys and treats
  • Emergency contacts (vet, neighbor, etc.)
  • Your pet’s quirks and preferences

Travel with peace of mind—your dog’s summer staycation starts at home.
