Pet Sitting

Planning to be away and can’t bring your beloved pet? Traveling for a special occasion or business? Or maybe you’re moving and need a pet-sitter to care for your pet while you get everything ready.

In situations like these, pet sitting may be the best option for you and your pet. This is different from our mid-day dog walking services. Our pet caregiver will visit for 30 minutes up to three times per day, depending on your pet’s needs. Prior to scheduling, we consult with you to determine what’s best for your pet. We want to make sure your pet stays on their normal eating, play, and exercise routines. Our pet-loving caregivers will give your pet the care and companionship they need while you are away. We also provide detailed pet reports and photos to keep you informed of your pet’s daily care.

We understand that the unexpected can happen, and we want to be there for you and your pet. That’s why we offer pet sitting for emergency situations—so you have one less thing to worry about!

Benefits

Our pet-sitting services give you the flexibility to use our pet care whenever you need us. There are no long-term commitments, and we build the agenda around your pet and their daily schedule.

Meet & Greet

During our intake meeting, we gather all of the important details when it comes to caring for your pet. Our pet sitter visits with you in your home to meet you and your pet. We establish the dates and times we are needed and discuss paperwork, like completing our pet profile. At this time, you provide a copy of your pet’s veterinarian record and any other personality or behavioral traits we should know about your pet. We also review all of your instructions. This visit includes a tour of your home to show us the necessities, like leashes, food, the location of the kitty litter, favorite toys, and other essentials. During this time, we have fun getting to know your pet in their environment.

Rates

We offer 30-minute pet-sitting visits for one or more pets. Our rates are $25 per visit for one to two pets, $35 per visit for three to four pets, and an additional $5 for each pet beyond four. For emergency visits, our service fee is $50 for the first visit, with regular rates applying to any follow-up visits. If you are not already a client, we must have current veterinarian records, and your pet must be up to date on their shots. A one-time fee of $20 is charged for all new clients for the intake meeting; the fee for second meetings for existing clients is $15.
