The most common service we provide is our daily dog walking. We also offer in-home pet sitting which means we will visit multiple times a day to feed, walk, play, and love your furbabies while you are away. We are even able to have our Pet Care Specialist stay overnight at your home but availability is limited. When visiting your home while you are away we will even bring in your mail, packages, water plants, rotate lights and outdoor trash or anything else you may need!
If you're not enrolled in a Sitter Saver plan, weekends have an additional fee of $4.99 per visit and holidays have an average fee ranging from $7.99 to $9.99 per visit. Some visits may see a fee of $25.99 depending on the date in relation to the observed holiday. If the visit lands on a weekend and holiday, both are applied to the cost of your visit.
We try to assign each family with a dedicated Pet Care Specialist. We may have a Specialist partner with your primary provider during training. As a Sitter Saver client, you'll have the same person entering your home every single time during that current reservation. If you’re not on a Sitter Saver plan, we may rotate Specialists to maximize availability and cost. We work in small teams that way you're always covered. You’ll be assigned a primary, secondary and an emergency backup.
Your Specialist will send a “report card" after each visit with anything important that may have happened throughout the visit. The app also notifies you if your pet went #1 and/or #2, we notify you that your home is secure before leaving, the pet was provided fresh water, etc. The app helps ensure clarity, transparency and peace of mind that your Specialist is completing all tasks assigned. We might even attach a stunning photo!
