Meet & greet
The first step for every new client, a meet & greet is when I come to your home to meet you and your pet(s) and pick up the key. Providing a key copy that I can hold onto for future visits is recommended.

The Details
Time windows for visits
Pets can start to feel like they’ve been abandoned after 24 hours without care. That’s why I book a minimum of one visit per day without any skipped days. Plus, there’s always a chance that your pet could close itself into a room or snag its collar on something. Two visits in a day are even better!
Medications
Because I have a very short amount of time to build and maintain trust with your pet, I only administer medications that don’t require restraint or force, such as gels and pill pocket treats that your pet will eat or transdermal medications that can be applied while petting your pet. If it takes time for your pet to feel comfortable receiving one of these types of medications, extended visits are required.
Additional reasons for extended visits
Time-consuming requests that take up at least half of a basic 20-minute visit, such as watering an outdoor garden, will require extended visits. Having several pets that require different kinds of care might also require extended visits. I can give you a better idea of which kind of visit would be better after we connect.
Sharing pet care
Unfortunately, having other people visit your home while I am providing pet sitting services voids my pet sitters insurance, so I am unable to take on shared pet sitting unless you sign a contract stating that you agree to not hold me liability for any issues that might occur.
Payment
Payment options include paying by cash, check, or credit card through Paypal, Venmo, Square, Stripe, or Cash App. Full payment is due before or on the first visit.
Cancelation policy
If you’ve booked my services, it means that I’ve scheduled subsequent bookings around your booking and may have turned away other service requests. A full refund is provided with a 24-hour notice. However, for less than 24 hours, only 50% of the total will be refunded. For holiday days and weeks (listed farther up on this page), a 48-hour notice is required for a full refund.
Key return
Providing a key copy that I can hold onto for future visits is recommended. Alternatively, I can leave the key inside of your home when I leave or return it another time for a $5 fee.
