Pet Sitting Services and Benefits
Pet Sitting
Day Visits:
Visits are scheduled to start anytime between 7:30 am and 7:30 pm. Please see below for day visits, check-in visits and other types of services such as plant and home care. I feel most pets need individual time and attention for various reasons every day and I don’t like to schedule visits for every other day. However, as many visits as needed per day may be arranged.

I will come out to do a complimentary consultation. This is to meet everyone, go over the service agreement, schedule services and so on. I will obtain a key and first time only will ask for 50% of the fee up front. Consultations usually take about 30 minutes.
I understand the dilemma of having a pet and not being able to take them with you when you travel or go to work. I try make my services obtainable and yet provide the best service possible. Pets have my undivided attention for the whole visit! Please ask if you are not sure what would work for you, or you need more information.
