Reach 2,200 Full & Part-Time Pet Sitters with National Association of Professional Pet Sitters

Members include independent pet-sitting and dog-walking contractors and small business owners who run their own pet-care services and collectively serve more than 200,000 clients. These professionals typically operate local pet-sitting businesses, offering in-home care and dog-walking to pet owners and relying on certification and industry resources to grow their companies. The National Association of Professional Pet Sitters (NAPPS) represents professional pet sitters and dog walkers across the United States — approximately 2,200 members strong. Founded in 1989 (incorporated a few years later), it is the only national nonprofit association solely dedicated to the professional pet‑sitting industry. For advertisers and media buyers, NAPPS offers access to a focused, niche audience of pet‑care entrepreneurs whose businesses often serve loyal, high‑engagement pet‑owner communities — making them an ideal, targetable group for pet‑related products, services, and marketing campaigns.
