First introduced by Pet Sitters International (PSI) in 1995, Professional Pet Sitters Week™ takes place annually the first full week of March.
This annual observance honors professional pet-care providers, seeks to educate the pet-owning public about the advantages of professional in-home pet care and encourages pet-loving entrepreneurs to explore professional pet sitting as a viable career.
PSI's 2025 Professional Pet Sitters Week, March 2-8, will mark the 31st annual celebration!
Thank Your Pet Sitter Day (created by PSI in 2023) is now also celebrated the Wednesday during each Professional Pet Sitters Week.

When our Dad was in the hospital in Kelowna and Mom was working in Vancouver, Mom hired a pet sitter most weekends to come and take care of Kozmo, Jo Jo and me Marvelous Marv! (Mom took Cinnamon with her). The lady who came and took care of us was a Professional Pet Sitter and we loved her. Especially Mr Kozmo. Kozmo needs to take thyroid medication on a daily basis and the lady who came in was the best! She even taught Mom the best way to give it to him.
