*Please be sure to familiarize yourself with my profile -plus the specifics of whichever service you are interested in- before requesting a booking &/or a Meet and Greet (MnG), THANK YOU! Allow me and your beloved pet/s to keep each other company! I've sat for numerous friends, family members, and Rover clients over the years, and have been around many kinds of animals since birth. I have compassion for animals and will care for yours as though they are my own. I have experience walking, playing, feeding & watering pets. I have cared for animals requiring special diets, special care, medications including injections, blind, deaf, diabetic pets, and more. I've worked with dogs in training classes, so if you are currently training your pet I will continue with the training in your absence. When you have to be away from your pet, I'm your person! ✓I'm happy to travel; MnGs within 19 miles of where I'm staying are NO CHARGE! MnGs with addresses 20+ miles from my location require compensation [CASH UPON ARRIVAL; NON-REFUNDABLE]. The specific amount will be determined once your address is sent to me. This is implemented to cover gas usage & travel time, as well as the risk of the MnG not leading to a confirmed booking. ✓I absolutely require a MnG for all ADULT DOGS! I perform one MnG per household. If pet owners would like for me to meet with them/their pets more than that initial MnG (before our actual booking or house stay), those visits will be charged at my current drop-in or dog-walking rates. ✓The MnG would be the time for pet owners to hand off to me a key or garage opener, to gain access to your home during the actual stay. If you aren't ready to do this exchange during the MnG (or don't have a door/garage code or aren't comfortable hiding a key somewhere the day the stay starts), I ask that you please make the trip to me before the stay begins. If you would rather I make a second trip to you, I can absolutely do that for the same charge as whatever my current drop-in fee is (if your address is within 19mi of mine)! ✓Any arrival or departure times on my end (to or from your home at the beginning and/or end of the stay, & requested by you) that fall within the window of 10pm-8am will require a $20 fee [CASH UPON ARRIVAL; NON-REFUNDABLE], akin to third shift differential. ✓Any service I provide is provided with the explicit understanding that -for my protection, and more- I will be the only person in the home for the duration of my time there (outside of the MnGs, of course)! ✓Further compensation for special needs pets / quirks/risks/medication administration/etc. may be assessed (but generally NOT!). This depends on the extra attention and cares needed and subsequently provided by me, and will be modified/reflected in the final price only after discussing with you! ✓House sitting (overnights) consisting of only cat/s will be booked at the same price as overnight dog care. If the cat/s are IN ADDITION to dog/s, the cats will fall under the standard/additional cat charges listed under my house sitting services. ✓Rates are subject to change throughout the year! ✓REVIEWS &/OR TIPS for services that you are pleased with are highly encouraged and especially appreciated!
