Why Perna’s Pet Care?
Perna’s Pet Care started in 2018 by Caitlin Perna after working for other dog walking and pet sitting companies and constantly feeling like there was more she could do. She created Perna’s Pet Care for a more personalized experience working together with pet parents to offer the best care possible for each individual pet.
With so many neighbors, moms, and kids pet sitting and dog walking today it can be hard to decide who to choose. So what about Perna’s Pet Care makes us the best choice? We are a team dedicated professionals working together to make sure you always get the best care possible.
Why choose our team:
–We have back ups for our sitters to make sure they are always cared for
–Everyone goes through an extensive interview and training process to ensure only the best are hired
–We use industry leading software Time to Pet for everything from scheduling to payments to communication
–Each visit is GPS tracked and includes a visit report with photos, checklists, and notes
–Option to meet pet sitter before first booking
-No extra fee for administering medications
In-home pet sitting services like ours offer a great deal of comfort to the pets we care for. Allowing them to stay home relieves stress and anxiety, prevents them from boarding in loud facilities with limited space, and also gives a chance to build personal relationships with their sitter.
On top of all that- to ensure that we are staying up to date on best practices for our business and pet care, we are members of prestigious groups such as Pet Sitters International and The Texas Pet Sitters Association. These groups provide us with seminars and trainings throughout the year with professionals from every aspect of pet care you can imagine.

Interesting Fact:

Biography:
I’ve been in the pet care industry since 2013 starting with doggy day care centers and volunteering in animal shelters. Now, as a professional pet sitter:
- I am a member of Pet Sitters International
- a founding member of the Texas Pet Sitters Association (where my business began)
- was trained by the largest no-kill animal shelter (Austin Pets Alive!) to care for and feed neo-natal kittens in their ICU
- participate in events for the Women’s Exchange of Washentaw, a group for women in business
- am pet CPR/First Aid certified
I moved back to Michigan in 2021 (I got my BA at Western Michigan University, go Broncos!) to be close to my sister and watch my nephews grow up. They are both less than 2 years old but I am shooting for the title of Best Aunt in the World.
It’s this same love I give to the pets I care for- your family becomes my family. My goal is to give you peace of mind whether you’re at work or out of town. Offering exercise, enrichment, walks, cuddles, and playtime or whatever else your pet might need.
I can’t wait to meet you and your fur-babies!
