| Source: FETCH! Pet Care
KATY, TX--(Marketwire - September 12, 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 Katy,
Texas to provide area residents with unsurpassed pet care services. This
new franchise marks the 99th FETCH! Pet Care location that, in aggregate,
now service more than 7,500 active clients throughout 1,200 cities and
towns in 31 states across the U.S.
Sheryl Lucian and Ron Downey, who own and operate FETCH! Pet Care of Katy
Rose-Rich, are augmenting their professions as a retail manager and an
assistant vice president to establish the franchise, capitalizing 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. They now provide pet owners throughout Katy,
Texas, including Katy, Rosenberg, Richmond and Houston, 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 Lucian. "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 November 1, 2007 FETCH!
Pet Care of Katy Rose-Rich is offering a 10% discount off each new client's
initial service. FETCH! Pet Care of Katy Rose-Rich can be reached by
