Pet Sitter vs. Envoy Pet
Most pet sitters in Tampa are licensed and insured for what they do: visits to your home, walks, feeding, boarding. Some will do vet runs if you ask nicely. But it's usually not a core service, the insurance doesn't always cover off-site transport, and most won't stay through a 90-minute appointment.
Envoy Pet is built specifically for the vet visit run. It's the only thing we do, which means we're set up for it in a way a pet sitter isn't. Private vehicle, secured kennel, full appointment wait, photo update, fixed published rates. You book it like any other service — no favors, no awkwardness.

FAQ
Some can, some won't. Most pet sitters are licensed for in-home care — boarding, feeding, walks — but aren't set up for vet transport. They may not carry the right liability insurance for off-site transport, and most won't wait through a full appointment. Envoy Pet is built specifically for vet visits.
A pet sitter provides in-home care. Envoy Pet provides private pet transportation — specifically for vet visits, where we pick up, wait through the full appointment, and return your pet home. Different service entirely.
Pet sitters who do vet runs typically charge by the hour with no fixed rate. Envoy Pet publishes fixed rates: vet visit service from $225, standard pickup and drop-off from $125. Exact quote before you confirm.
Yes. Envoy Pet carries the appropriate insurance coverage for private pet transportation. A pet sitter's in-home policy typically does not extend to off-site transport.
