PLAINVILLE, MA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- November 27, 2006 -- 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
Massachusetts' Dedham-Attleboro & Rhode Island's Cumberland regions to
provide area residents with unsurpassed pet care services. This new
franchise marks the 55th FETCH! Pet Care location that, in aggregate, now
service over 900 cities and towns throughout Arkansas, California,
Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa, Louisiana, Maryland,
Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina,
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Texas.
Sandy Sabonis & Debbie McGoff, who own and operate FETCH! Pet Care of
Dedham-Attleboro & FETCH! Pet Care of Cumberland, gave up their professions
as Operations Managers 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 the
Dedham/Dover, Massachusetts area south to Cumberland/Lincoln Rhode Island,
including Norwood, Foxboro, Plainville, Attleboro and Valley Falls, 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 Sabonis. "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."

Pet Care of Dedham-Attleboro & FETCH! Pet Care of Cumberland are offering a
