A local edge

Local know-how pays off in Memphis

Memphis summers are hot and humid, so sitters move mid-day walks to dawn and evening from May through September. Winters are short and mild, with year-round walking weather most weeks.

When demand peaks

Demand peaks in summer (June to August), Elvis Week in mid-August, Memphis in May, Thanksgiving, and the December holidays. Medical-research travel from the St. Jude community keeps mid-week boarding steady year-round, often as longer stays.

Know your Memphis routes
