Meet Your Sitter Before You Schedule
We believe that you and your pet should feel as comfortable as possible with your sitter before our scheduled service takes place. That’s why we offer a free in-home consultation before your first service begins. This gives everyone a chance to get to know each other and make sure that this is a good fit.
You’ll Get The Same Trusted Sitter Every Time
When you schedule a service with us, we’ll partner you with a primary and back-up pet sitter based on your needs and schedule. You’ll have the chance to meet these nearby sitters and once you approve of them, we’ll assign them to your account. Any time you schedule services thereafter, you’ll receive care from your primary or back-up sitter. This way you know your pet is getting care from someone you (and they) know, trust, and like every time.
We’ve Earned a Glowing Reputation
With tens of thousands of satisfied clients nationwide, we’ve earned a solid reputation as the most trusted and reliable pet care service in the country. And it isn’t just Fetch as a company. Each of our sitters come with fantastic reviews of their own and our local owners are constantly reviewing feedback surveys to ensure it stays that way.
Meet The Owner
Jacqueline
Hello! My name is Jacque Peters and I am the Owner and General Manager of Fetch! of North Pittsburgh. I was born and raised in the Wexford area and continue to live here with my family. I am an avid pet lover and have always had a pet growing up in my home. My husband and I are fosters for a local rescue in the area, which is how we adopted our lovable furbaby, a 90# Lab/Rottie mix named Dobby. I also have an adorable daughter, a toddler who loves all kinds of pets and helps care for them as well! During my downtime I enjoy golfing and spending time with my family.
I took over the branch in March of 2019, and has been one of the best decisions I’ve made! I enjoy the daily interactions with my staff and our clients. It is even a pleasure to help out and enjoy the time I get to spend with our fury clients as well!
