| Source: FETCH! Pet Care
PALM SPRINGS, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- May 9, 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
California's Palm Springs region to provide area residents with unsurpassed
pet care services. This new franchise marks the 75th FETCH! Pet Care
location that, in aggregate, now service over 1,000 cities and towns
throughout Arkansas, California, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Georgia,
Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wisconsin.
Joan Demiany, who owns and operates FETCH! Pet Care of Palm Springs, gave
up her profession in medical management 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 Palm Springs, CA, including Rancho Mirage, Indian Wells, Palm
Desert, and La Quinta, 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 Demiany. "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 July 1, 2007 FETCH! Pet
Care of Palm Springs is offering a 10% discount off each new client's
initial service. FETCH! Pet Care of Palm Springs can be reached by
telephone at 888-860-2084 and via email at PalmSprings@fetchpetcare.com or
