Pet Sitting Excellence through Education

We believe that education is the key to pet-sitting success. This is why in addition to educational resources, such as PSI’s Accreditation Program, The WORLD of Professional Pet Sitting and Pet Owners WORLD, we offer opportunities throughout the year for pet sitters to converge to network and learn from their pet-sitting peers and industry professionals.


Our annual Quest convention and PSI Regional Meetings allow members to increase their knowledge and skills in animal behavior and care, business operations and customer service—all while enjoying the camaraderie of fellow pet care professionals.


Educational Meetings on the Horizon…

During Quest events and throughout the year we receive input from members on the ideal locations and times for the Quest convention. Undoubtedly, pet sitting is a year round job, but members continue to tell us that September is a particularly busy time. With that in mind, Quest will move from September to February with our next Quest convention taking place in February 2009 on the sunny shores of Florida. More details coming soon!


PSI will host a 2008 Regional Meeting in beautiful historic Old Town Alexandria, VA on September 29th. Stay tuned for additional information and registration details.
