At Upper Cape Pet, we treat your pets like our own.
As a premier pet care company of Cape Cod, we offer a wide array of pet sitting, dog walking, cat boarding, and pet grooming services, as well as convenient concierge services to accommodate the busy lives we lead these days!
Our Services
Personalized, private animal care tailored to meet each pet’s unique needs. Our services include professional dog walking, overnight stays, and safe, supervised off-leash play. We also offer concierge-style services such as light in-home grooming, pet taxi transportation and compassionate coordination of in-home euthanasia — supporting families through every stage of their pet’s life with dignity and care.
Our professional grooming services are available for both dogs and cats, ensuring pets look and feel their very best in a comfortable, low-stress environment. Our loving, caring, and highly experienced team of groomers is passionate about creating a positive experience for every pet. We pride ourselves on building trust — and it’s not uncommon for dogs to happily walk through our front door, excited for their spa day.
We are also proud to own and operate a luxurious cat resort designed exclusively for feline comfort and well-being. Our resort features fresh filtered water, stainless steel sanitizable litter pans and feeding bowls, and a calm, enriching atmosphere designed with cats in mind. Fully insured and highly trained, our team is experienced in administering medications, including insulin injections, ensuring even cats with special medical needs receive attentive, expert care.
Proud to announce Upper Cape Pet Rescue Service is coming soon!
Our love for animals doesn’t stop with the care we provide to existing furred family members. We want to help animals find their forever home. More information coming soon - stay tuned for more info fall of 2026!
How It Works
Making it easy on you, is why we are here. Never again will you have to worry about your pup getting exercise during the day or how you will manage all of those overnights when you travel. We can care for your pets in your own home or if you would like to drop your cat off at our luxury cat resort, they can play and enjoy the feline friendly accommodations until you return.
Make no mistake, just because we make it super easy to schedule care for your pets, doesn’t mean it ends there. Our staff will ensure that the daily routines of your pet(s) are uninterrupted, delivering a continuance of care just as they would receive from their owners. We are fully insured and bonded, CPR Certified and our entire staff has been CORI checked.
In-Home Consultation
Together we’ll design a pet care plan that ensures daily consistency and routines by gathering important background information about your pooch or kitty. From feeding schedules to their individual quirks, to known fears or habits.
Book Services Online
With our streamlined online scheduling portal, we make it easy for you to schedule the pet care you need right from your desktop or download the convenient app on your smartphone or other device.
5-Star Animal Care
We take pride in delivering the best possible care, with safety and security being paramount. Whether it’s a quick relief visit, an overnight, a groom, or having your cats stay at our luxury cat resort, you can have peace of mind every time.
Care Report
Real-time reporting is sent to you upon completion of services, offering peace of mind knowing that your pets are safe and well cared for.
About Us
Based in Falmouth, MA, our company was founded in 2018 by Lisa Schott, who spent more than 10 years working in the veterinary field before leaving corporate America to pursue her true passion — building a business rooted in compassion, integrity, and an unwavering love for animals. What began as a vision to provide more personalized, heartfelt pet care, coupled with the unwavering support of her sons, Chatham and Ryder, UCP has grown into a team of over 20 dedicated employees, all committed to one core principle: loving and caring for every pet as if they were our own.
UCP is proud to be a trusted leader in pet care throughout the Upper Cape. Recognized year after year with the prestigious Best of Upper Cape award, and recommended by many local veterinary practices. Our reputation is built on professionalism, reliability and truly exceptional care.
Giving Back to Our Community
Beyond pet care, we are deeply committed to the community we serve. We proudly sponsor Sunny Paws Rescue as well as Falmouth High School and local club sports teams — supporting animal welfare and youth athletics throughout the Upper Cape.
At the heart of everything we do is a simple promise: to treat your pets like family. Whether you need daily care, grooming, boarding, or specialized support, you can trust that your pet will be safe, loved, and exceptionally cared for every step of the way.
We invite you to experience the difference — and become part of the UCP pet-loving family.

Client Reviews
“Upper Cape Pet is an amazing business. Lisa, the owner, truly loves our pets and cares for them as though they were her own. She has chosen her staff carefully and everyone is an animal lover and a caring and responsible person. They all give me peace of mind when I have to leave my beloved pet.”
— Sharon“We've used Upper Cape Pet for 10+ years and have always had stellar experiences. Lisa is a professional and we feel confident leaving our pups in her company's care. Our dogs love the sitters, and seem happy rather than anxious when we come home, especially from long trips. Thank you Lisa and the crew for all the visits and great pics of Gracie & Luigi!”
— Beth“I love Upper Cape Pet! Lisa and her amazing staff are unmatched with the level of care they give our dogs. The sitters and groomers are reliable and respectful, and give us a peace of mind that our pets and home are always well cared for. I give them my highest recommendation! They treat us like family.”
