Fetching Pet Company
Privacy Policy & SMS Terms and Conditions
Effective date: October 19, 2026
Fetching Pet Company (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose information when you visit our website, book services, make payments, or communicate with us.
1. Information We Collect
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:
-
Contact information, including your name, email address, telephone number, and address.
-
Booking and service information, including reservations, appointments, pet details, care instructions, and records you provide for your pet’s services.
-
Payment and transaction information, such as payment status and purchase history. Payments are processed through Square.
-
Communications, including inquiries, email and text messages, marketing preferences, and records of consent or unsubscribe requests.
-
Website usage information, such as IP address, browser and device information, pages visited, and interactions with our website, collected through cookies and similar technologies.
2. How We Use Information
We use information to manage bookings, provide pet care services, process payments, respond to questions, send service updates, maintain business records, improve our website, and protect against fraud or misuse.
We also use information to send marketing emails and, with your separate SMS marketing consent, promotional text messages. Agreeing to receive marketing emails does not constitute consent to receive marketing texts.
3. Providers We Use
We use the following providers to support our business:
-
Wix: website hosting and website features.
-
ProPet: bookings, customer records, and service-related communications.
-
Square: payment processing.
-
Mailchimp: email marketing through our ProPet integration.
-
Twilio: text message delivery through our ProPet integration when our SMS program is available.
These providers process information needed for their services. Their own privacy policies also describe how they handle information when you interact with their services.
We may disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, or security. The specific protections for mobile information and SMS consent below apply to our messaging program.
4. Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to support website functions and understand how visitors use the site.
Where enabled, tools such as Google Analytics and Meta Pixel may collect device identifiers, IP addresses, browsing activity, and website interactions. These tools help measure website traffic, evaluate advertising, and show relevant advertisements. Their providers may associate this information with information they already hold.
You can manage cookies through your browser and, where available, the website’s cookie preferences. Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality. Blocking cookies alone may not stop every form of tracking.
Depending on applicable law, advertising-related disclosures of website information may be considered “sharing” or a “sale,” even when no money is exchanged. Contact us to ask about applicable privacy choices. This website tracking provision does not authorize sharing mobile numbers or SMS consent for another company’s marketing.
5. Email Marketing
We use Mailchimp through ProPet to send marketing emails, including news, offers, and service updates.
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails using the unsubscribe link in those emails or by contacting us. Unsubscribing from marketing emails does not prevent necessary booking, payment, or customer service communications.
6. SMS Privacy
When you enroll in or use our text messaging program, we collect your mobile number, consent and opt-out records, message content, and information needed to deliver and respond to messages.
We use this information to provide the communications you requested, coordinate services, manage your preferences, honor opt-outs, and maintain required records.
We do not sell or rent mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in information, or SMS consent records. We do not share mobile information with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.
SMS opt-in data and consent are excluded from other information-sharing categories in this policy. We do not transfer your consent to another business. Information may be processed by providers necessary to operate our text messaging service, including ProPet, Twilio, messaging aggregators, and wireless carriers, solely for that purpose and not for their own marketing.
7. Information Retention and Security
We retain information for as long as reasonably needed to provide services, maintain business records, resolve disputes, and meet applicable obligations. We may retain consent and opt-out records to document your preferences and prevent unwanted messages.
We use reasonable safeguards designed to protect personal information. No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure.
8. Your Privacy Choices
You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights, including rights concerning targeted advertising or certain disclosures of information.
We will handle requests as required by applicable law and may need to verify your identity. Some information may need to be retained for legal, transaction, or recordkeeping purposes.
For privacy requests, email info@fetchingpetcompany.com or call 618-505-7575.
9. SMS Terms and Conditions
Program Description
Fetching Pet Company’s SMS program provides service-related messages, including booking confirmations, appointment reminders, reservation changes, grooming status notifications, pick-up reminders, payment notifications, customer service responses, and follow-up messages.
Customers who separately opt in to promotional texts may also receive special offers, promotions, and company news.
Consent
By voluntarily opting in to a messaging program, you authorize Fetching Pet Company to send automated and non-automated texts to the number you provide for the purposes described when you enroll.
Providing a telephone number or making a booking does not, by itself, enroll you in promotional texts. Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchasing products or services.
You confirm that you are authorized to use the mobile number provided. Please notify us if your number changes.
Message Frequency and Rates
Messages may be recurring. Message frequency varies based on your bookings, interactions, and the messaging programs you join.
Msg & data rates may apply. Contact your wireless provider for details about your plan.
Opting Out
Reply STOP to any Fetching Pet Company text message to unsubscribe at any time. You may receive one final confirmation message. No further messages will be sent through that messaging program unless you opt in again.
For assistance with an opt-out request, call 618-505-7575 or email info@fetchingpetcompany.com.

Privacy
Our collection and use of SMS information are described in the SMS Privacy section above.
