Sit — Stay ... in your own home

Last year, pet owners spent $38.4 billion on their companion animals, according to the American Pet Products Manufacturers Association, Inc. More than $2.7 billion was spent in pet services, and the organization is predicting that figure to grow by 8 percent for 2007.

A new pet-sitting business in Red Hook is hoping some of that money will be thrown its way.

According to their press release, We Let the Dogs Out! is a professional service that allows Northern Dutchess County pet owners to leave their household pet or pets in their own home.

They visit on a daily basis to feed, water and care for the pets, even bringing in newspapers and mail. They will also water houseplants.

Interviews are required for all new clients.

During the months of May and June, clients will receive a 10 percent discount off the total fee.

For additional information or to make a reservation, call 845-758-6891.
