PawSpot.com - Find A Pet Sitter Among Friends

What happens to Fido dearest or little, finicky Fluffy when the family goes away on vacation? Are they shipped off to the kennel or handed off to the reluctant neighbors? Do you fret away those precious last minute packing moments making desperate phone calls to friends and family? Rather than partake in all that sturm and drang, take a gander at PawSpot. This is a community for pets and their owners whose main aim is to coordinate pet sitting. Of course, it's not meant to be a sort of blind dating like service where you'd entrust your furry family members to some stranger you met on the web. Instead PawSpot invites you and your friends to join so that you can easily coordinate and take turns minding the pets. The site also features pet play dates, whereby anyone can request some playtime with other pets on the site. And what would a pet site be without photos? There are tons of cuddly, cute snapshots for pet enthusiasts to grin at. Additional nifty features include bulletins, profiles, expert advice, park descriptions, and discussion forums.

 
  In their own words  

"Let's face it, we all love our pets to pieces. But sometimes caring for our furry family members can be a daunting responsibility, especially when we have to be away from home. Finding someone to care for our pet is usually a frustrating experience, with an expensive solution. If you are a pet owner who travels on occasion you are most likely familiar with the calls to family and friends, begging for their pet sitting services. And then of course, there's always the dreaded last resort: the kennel.

Not any more! PawSpot has the solution to your pet sitting needs. At PawSpot you can exchange pet sitting for free with pet loving friends who you know and trust."
