Why Scout & Company Exists

Scout, the inspiration behind Scout & Company, enjoying a quiet moment outdoors.

Scout & Company Companion Pet Care was founded with a simple mission: to give pets the same love, attention, and care they receive from their own families.

Inspired by the deep bond I share with my dog, Scout, and built on over a decade of pet and house-sitting experience around the world, the service is rooted in trust, compassion, and truly personalized care.

Leaving your pet in someone else’s care is a big leap of trust. I understand the worry that can come with that decision, wondering if they are okay, if they are happy, and if they miss you. That is why I created a service I would trust with Scout herself. Care that honors each animal’s routine, understands their quirks, and treats them with the same patience and respect they receive at home.

Care Designed for Your Pet

No two pets are alike, so I do not believe in one-size-fits-all care. I take the time to understand your pet’s personality, preferences, and needs, creating a customized approach that fits their lifestyle and yours.

That might mean a slower walk, extra time settling in, keeping routines exactly the same, or simply offering more reassurance when it is needed. Your pets deserve attentive, loving care, and that is exactly what you can expect with every visit and every walk.

Experience You Can Trust

Over the years, I have cared for dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, and even goats, from energetic puppies to senior pets with medical needs. Whether your companion needs a midday walk, drop-in visits while you are away, or more specialized care, you can feel confident they are in capable, caring hands.
