Meet your Petcare Partner
Nanci Hopperton, CPPS
Welcome to Southwest Petsitting! After transitioning from a rewarding career in higher education and corporate business, I dedicated my life to my true passion: providing premier, trusted care for local family pets. Bringing a lifetime of experience as a dog, cat, and horse owner—including nearly 15 years as a pet sitter and over 18 years as an advocate for retired racing greyhounds—I offer a level of expertise you can truly rely on. My husband and I are proudly managed by our own beloved retired racer!
To ensure your family receives the highest standard of service, I have earned the elite designation of CPPS-Certified Professional Pet Sitter through Pet Sitters International. This advanced credential verifies a master-level competency in animal behavior, safety, and health protocols. Whether your fur baby is a high-energy pup, a 'stealth mode' kitty, or a rescue pet with anxious or sensitive tendencies, I specialize in providing the patient, one-on-one care they need. When you trust your home and pets to Southwest Petsitting, you can travel with complete and absolute peace of mind knowing they are being pampered right at home.
