<\/a>We at Critter Sitters know firsthand the distinctive bond that exists between pets and their owners\u2014we experience it every day. We are happy to see St. Louis emerge as a pet-friendlier city, with the human-animal bond being accommodated as pets become welcome in more places.<\/p>\nBut taking your pet on every errand or trip this summer may not be an option, nor is every pet a suitable traveling companion. If your pet can\u2019t accompany you when you leave home for extended periods of time, we hope you will consider hiring a professional pet sitter who will provide love and attention in your absence.<\/p>\n
