NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - July 7, 2008) - FETCH! Pet Care, the nation's largest pet care
brand offering professional pet sitting and dog walking services, today
announced it has further expanded its locations in Southern Rockland
County, New York and Northern Bergen County, New Jersey to provide area
residents with unsurpassed pet care services. FETCH! Pet Care now services
more than 13,000 active clients throughout 1,700 cities and towns in 34
states across the U.S.
Brandon and Jill Iurato, who currently own and operate FETCH! Pet Care of
Southern Orange County and Northern Sussex County, have increased their
territory to include Northern Rockland County and Northern Bergen County.
After 7 years as a K-9 enforcement officer with the U.S. Customs Service,
Brandon left his 9 to 5 job to spend his day caring for pets. Together
Brandon and Jill have expanded their franchise operation to further
capitalize on a unique opportunity to combine their love of animals with a
proven, turnkey home-based business for one of the lowest capital
investments in the franchise industry today.
The Iuratos now provide pet owners throughout Southern Orange and Southern
Rockland Counties, New York and Northern Sussex and Northern Bergen
Counties, New Jersey, including Nanuet, Suffern, Monsey, Pearl River,
Blauvelt, Mahwah, Park Ridge, Montvale and other neighboring towns, 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 Brandon. "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 more than 50 sitters ensures our client's pets receive the love,
attention and skilled treatment expected of a professional caregiver, and
that their 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 bonded and insured.
Paul Mann, FETCH! Pet Care founder and CEO, 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."
