We provide dog sitting services when you need an occasional walk and feed (during the busy times such as deadlines and meetings at work, work party, dinner date etc.), are on vacation or need to travel for work. Our dog sitting services are a convenient alternative to boarding your pet at a kennel or imposing on family, friends or neighbors while you're away.
Fees: $20 per visit. Each additional pet per household - $5 per visit.
For the safety and well being of your dog, we require at least three (3) visits per full day while you are away.
Dog sitting visits are offered 7 days a week & include the following:
- 30 minute visit includes a neighborhood walk and/or playtime with your dog's favorite toys in a fenced-in yard.
- Provide meals and fresh water.
- Loving care and one-on-one individual attention for your pets.
- Pet sitting report at every visit to give you an update about your pet's activities and behavior and occasional pictures by email.
- Regular updates by email or phone if desired (or feel free to call and find out how your pet is doing).
- Reinforce your dog's basic training such as practicing recall and commands such as 'Sit', 'Down' and 'Stay' during the walk or at home.
- Bring in the mail/newspaper and small packages.
- Alternate lights/blinds for security.
- Water indoor household plants and take out trash, if required.
Your dog(s) will adjust better to your absence and experience less anxiety in the comfort of their own home. You can relax and enjoy your vacation knowing that your dog is safe at home in the hands of a caring professional and your home treated with utmost care and respect.
Dog Sitting Services (In Your Home):
PLEASE NOTE: We are firm believers of positive reinforcement methods and humane treatment of dogs and therefore, do not use shock, choke or prong collars and invisible fences. We will be happy to discuss alternatives such as walking your dog on a trainer recommended harness instead.
VISIT TIMES:
While we understand your dog’s needs for a certain level of predictability in their daily routine, we also require a degree of flexibility in scheduling visits. We ask for a two-hour time window to arrive for your pet's visit. It helps us with scheduling and makes our lives so much easier!
