We love animals … furry ones, feathered ones, and even ones with scales, fins, horns, and hooves! We have many animals that we care for on a daily basis or when needed while the family takes a vacation or business trip.
So you can image that our list of pet sitting services is pretty varied. Below we’re provided a list of the most common services requested. As a small pet sitting service, we can customize services based on what each family and animal needs. Reach out if your fur and feather babies need something that you don’t see below.
Pet Sitter, Pet Care and Visit Services
Initial Pet Sitting Consultation Visit
This visit is always free. We like to use this visit to introduce ourselves to your family and your pets. We get to know each animal, they get familiar with us and we get an understanding of the scope of care needed. We can also provide a custom quote at this time based on services you need. This is a no obligation visit and no money will be requested at this time.
Up to a 30-Minute Pet Visit – $25 per visit
This level of pet sitting service is suitable for either cats, dogs or small pets that need a litter box or small cage clean-out, feeding, and watering or to be let outside to do their business. We can typically let the dogs out, feed and water the pets, collect eggs or refill farm feeders and give farm animals fresh water. We can also do short walks or playtime.
Up to a 1-Hour Pet Visit – $45 per visit
If you have a house full of precious pets, a high-energy pet that needs a lot of playtime, or a small farm, this level of pet sitting service will fit perfectly. In this 1-Hour visit we’ll take care of everything included in our shorter visit services, but we can also get multiple dog walks in! This is also a perfect level of service if you have a small farm, need milk collection, egg collection, or to have larger stalls or pens cleaned out.
Pet Transport – $45 per hour
Need some help getting the furry and feathers ones to the vet, doggie daycare, or for a grooming appointment? Happy to help! We charge in 15-minute increments for this service with time starting at pickup and ending when we arrive back home. Learn about how I make sure pets stay safe during transport from our FAQs. Give me a call if you have any questions.
Pooper-Scooper Detail – $45 per hour
As they say, “It’s a dirty job…. but someone has to do it”. Whether it’s cleanup around the yard, stall or pen, We can help get rid of the pooh for you! We do need to custom quote for this service since the scope can vary so much. But a fixed quote will be given for you to approve before the work begins.
Pet Playtime or Walks – $45 per hour (1 hour minimum)
Staying inside all day can be difficult for a new puppy or active dog. And “holding it” all day is a BIG challenge. Sometimes just a little walk or playtime can help get that energy out and resolve separation and behavior issues that some dogs have. I can also include a walk or playtime as an add-on to the Basic Level of care services.
Mail, Paper, and Trashcan Services
Going away for a few days? Most people need the pets taken care of, but bringing in the mail, paper, and trashcans needs to be done too. We’re happy to include these services while taking care of your pets!
Watering the Plants – Included in our Pet care rates
The plants need a little love too! We’re happy to water your plants when taking care of your furry and feathered friends. Please note that if you have a small jungle or large number of plants, we may need to charge an additional fee.
House Sitting Only – Starting at $30 per visit
Don’t have any furry or feathered friends around your house or you have them boarded while you are gone? Worried about your house while you are away? We’re happy to stop in and do a general house check while you are away. Services can include checking mail, watering plants, taking trash cans to the curb, switching on different lights each day, and checking for any general house issues. (Think water leaks or a heat/ac unit issue).
