CAREFREE, ARIZONA--(Marketwire - December 10, 2007) - FETCH! Pet Care, America's largest and
most sophisticated pet care franchise offering professional pet sitting and
dog walking services, today announced it has launched a new location in
Arizona's Greater Carefree-Fountain Hills region to provide area residents
with unsurpassed pet care services. This new franchise marks the 132nd
FETCH! Pet Care location that, in aggregate, now service more than 9,400
active clients throughout 1,400 cities and towns in 31 states across the
U.S.
Tracy Weber, who owns and operates FETCH! Pet Care of Greater
Carefree-Fountain Hills, is augmenting her profession as a middle school
teacher to establish the franchise, capitalizing on a unique opportunity to
combine her love of animals with a proven, turnkey home-based business for
one of the lowest capital investments in the franchise industry today. She
now provides pet owners throughout Arizona's Greater Carefree-Fountain
Hills region, including Rio Verde, Desert Ridge and Moon Valley, with a
range of services that meet every need and budget, including boarding and
daycare in the sitter's home, overnight sitting or daily visits in the
client's home, private and group dog walks, pet taxiing, and miscellaneous
home care. A free in-home consultation permits clients, pets and sitters
to get
pre-acquainted and address each pet's unique needs.
"Selecting a sitter to care for a pet and a home is a critically important
decision," notes Weber. "Now, there's no need to impose on family members
or friends, or subject one's pet to kennel boarding. Our highly trained
staff of sitters ensures all pets receive the love, attention and skilled
treatment expected of a professional caregiver, and that the client's home
remains secure."
To assure operational efficiencies, FETCH! Pet Care employs a sophisticated
telephone dispatch system and advanced software that tracks assignments and
delivers real-time electronic client order confirmations and automated
sitter assignment reminders. In addition, each sitter undergoes a thorough
criminal background check, references review, and training regimen, and
each location is fully licensed, bonded and insured.
Paul Mann, FETCH! Pet Care founder and president, notes, "The demand for
professional pet care services is at an all-time high -- especially those
that allow pets to maintain their routine while receiving the attention
they need. With many pet owners frustrated by the lack of professional and
reliable caregivers, or reluctant to kennel their pets due to health and
other concerns, our safe, convenient, and nurturing care provides peace of
mind."
As part of the grand opening celebration, through January 25, 2008 FETCH!
Pet Care of Greater Carefree-Fountain Hills is offering a 10% discount off
each new client's initial service. FETCH! Pet Care of Greater
Carefree-Fountain Hills can be reached by telephone at 866-338-2463 and via
