Professional Pet Sitters Week™
SAVE THE DATE: March 7-13, 2027
PSI's 2027 Professional Pet Sitters Week
First introduced by Pet Sitters International (PSI) in 1995, Professional Pet Sitters Week™ (PPSW) takes place annually the first full week of March.
This annual observance honors professional pet-care providers, seeks to educate the pet-owning public about the advantages of professional in-home pet care and encourages pet-loving entrepreneurs to explore professional pet sitting as a viable career.
PSI's 2027 Professional Pet Sitters Week, March 7-13, will mark the 33rd annual celebration.

+ Another reason to celebrate during PPSW...
While PSI’s Professional Pet Sitters Week™ has served as an annual weeklong observance since 1995 to promote pet sitting as a career and highlight the work of professional pet sitters, we thought professional pet sitters deserved even more recognition!
So in 2023, we announced a new annual celebration—Thank Your Pet Sitter Day™—which is observed the Wednesday during Professional Pet Sitters Week each year.
PSI promotes this special day to pet parents and the general public through public relations and social-media promotions. The PSI team also reaches out to media contacts and pet-related companies and organizations around the globe. The 2027 observance will take place on Wednesday, March 10.
