| Source: FETCH! Pet Care
PHOENIX, AZ--(Marketwire - February 12, 2008) - 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 North Central Phoenix region to provide area residents with
unsurpassed pet care services. This new franchise marks the 144th FETCH!
Pet Care location that, in aggregate, now service more than 9,400 active
clients throughout 1,500 cities and towns in 33 states across the U.S.
Vicki McKee, who owns and operates FETCH! Pet Care of North Central
Phoenix, established the franchise to capitalize 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 North Central Phoenix, Arizona,
including Scottsdale, 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 McKee. "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 March 28, 2008 FETCH! Pet
Care of North Central Phoenix is offering a 10% discount off each new
client's initial service. FETCH! Pet Care of North Central Phoenix can be
