Where Expertise Meets Exceptional Pet Care

Professional Pet Care Led by a Certified Veterinary Technician — St. Petersburg, FL

Your pet isn’t just an animal — they’re a member of your family. And when it comes to who you trust with their care, you shouldn’t have to settle for good enough.

Farley Pet Care is founded and led by Erica McChesney, a Certified Veterinary Technician since 2004. That credential isn’t a detail — it’s the foundation everything we do is built on. It means the person caring for your pet understands animal health at a level most pet sitters never will. It means medications are handled correctly, subtle changes in condition don’t go unnoticed, and your senior or special needs pet is never in over anyone’s head.

This is professional-grade pet care delivered in the comfort of your home — by someone who chose this work because they genuinely love animals and have spent their life learning how to care for them well.

Because your pet deserves more than someone who means well. They deserve someone who truly knows what they’re doing.

About Farley Pet Care

Farley Pet Care was founded in 2017 by Certified Veterinary Technician Erica McChesney. After years of working in the veterinary field, Erica found herself on the business side of the industry — and quickly realized what she missed most was the animals. The hands-on care. The connection. The opportunity to support pets and the families who love them.

What began as a passion project grew into one of St. Petersburg’s most trusted pet care services, built on a foundation that most pet sitting companies simply can’t offer — genuine veterinary expertise delivered in the comfort of your home.

Erica brings a trained eye, steady presence, and deep understanding of animal health and behavior to every visit. She is experienced in administering medications, monitoring subtle changes in condition, and providing thoughtful, individualized care — especially for senior pets and those with medical needs.

Erica holds additional certifications as a Certified Professional Pet Sitter and Certified Pet Loss Specialist — reflecting a commitment to serving pet families at every stage of their journey.

As Farley Pet Care continues to grow, every team member is carefully selected and trained to uphold the same standards of professionalism, compassion, and reliability the business was founded on. Whether your visit is with Erica or a trusted member of her team, you can expect consistent service, clear communication, and care that never cuts corners.
