Because this is a private residence and I maintain responsibilities outside of pet care, all meet-and-greets, drop-offs, and pick-ups must be scheduled in advance and occur at the agreed-upon times. I appreciate your understanding and respect for my time, home, and routines so I can continue providing quality care to every guest while also balancing my own personal and professional responsibilities. Drop-Off & Pick-Up Times: •A 15-minute grace period is provided for all scheduled arrivals and departures. Late arrivals or pick-ups may result in: • $20 late fee after 15 minutes • Half-day charge after 1 hour • Full additional day charge after 2 hours • Possible cancellation or rescheduling ⭐️Please communicate as early as possible if you expect delays.⭐️ ⸻ 🏥 Health & Behavior Requirements For the safety of all guests, I cannot accept pets that: • Have a contagious illness or parasites • Have a history of aggression toward people or animals • Have a bite history • Display severe separation anxiety that causes excessive distress, barking, whining, or destruction • Cannot be left alone for short periods of time • Have a history of frequently escaping fences, crates, or containment systems that cannot be safely managed All pets must be current on legally required vaccinations and flea/tick prevention. Owners must disclose all known medical conditions, medications, behavioral concerns, bite history, anxiety issues, or escape tendencies prior to booking. Failure to disclose important behavioral or medical information may result in immediate cancellation of services without refund. ⸻ 💊 Medication & Medical Care I am happy to administer medications & injections at no additional charge when instructions are provided in writing. For the safety of your pet, all medications must be clearly labeled and provided in their original containers whenever possible. In the event of an illness, injury, or emergency, I will make every reasonable effort to contact you first. If immediate veterinary care is required and you cannot be reached, you must authorize your emergency contact to seek treatment on your behalf. Any veterinary expenses incurred during your pet’s stay are the responsibility of the owner. ⸻ 🤝 Meet & Greets •For health and safety reasons, all meet-and-greets, drop-offs, and pick-ups are conducted outdoors. As someone who is immunocompromised and due to previous theft incidents, I do not offer tours of my home. ⸻ 🧹🧼Damage & Cleaning Policy Accidents happen, and I understand that pets sometimes have unexpected needs. However, excessive cleaning, laundry, bathing, property damage, or repeated indoor accidents beyond normal expectations may result in additional charges. Owners are financially responsible for damage caused by their pet to property, furnishings, fencing, equipment, or belongings. ⸻ 💲Rates While rates may occasionally change, I strive to keep them affordable while providing high-quality individualized care. Rover retains approximately 20%-30% of each booking, and those fees are reflected in pricing. ⸻ Thank you for trusting me with your pet. I know how important they are to your family, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for every guest while giving owners peace of mind during their time away. ⭐️By booking services, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to all policies outlined above.⭐️
