Hallo! Thank you for visiting my page. My services and fees are for over-night stays ONLY, from noon to noon -- no daily "drop-in" visits (although, on occasion, I will accept these for unusual or emergency situations). If you need me to come early in the day or stay late, I charge an extra half-day, as I will not be able to book the preceeding or following night. Please read all of this page, as it will probably answer a lot of your questions. Thank you. MINIMUM booking: two nights. No maximum. Longer bookings very welcome. Fees: $55/night for cats only $65/night dogs only OR dogs + cats __Potential extra fees: ___Extra cats = $10/night ___Extra dogs = $25/night Please contact me if the above fee schedule is unclear, or if Rover doesn't charge you correctly (very likely). I can adjust the final total manually. PLEASE NOTE: the last "day" of any of my pet-sittings is booked ONLY UNTIL NOON of that day. Therefore, if a booking ends on, say, the 5th., then THE NIGHT of the 5th. is available for booking. Rover's software is incapable of showing this. I have 25+ years' experience house/pet-sitting cats, dogs, birds and a gecko, plus very badic care of a few horses (feed, water, shovel sh1t). Have looked after several homes while they were under renovation -- as well as caring for the garden. I have helped raise various farm birds: ducks, geese, chickens, pheasants and peacocks. I am comfortable pilling dogs and cats, giving other medication, clipping toenails, brushing, bathing. Have given subcutaneous injections to cats. No problem with cats or dogs sleeping on the bed with me. Have fostered cats and kittens (once had 10 kittens at same time!). I have volunteered with the Humane Society of Southwest Washington, Meow Village (driving hundreds of miles to re-home cats) and Fences for Fido. I have house/pet-sat in both urban and rural areas. I look forward to hearing from you. **Special rates for long-term (3 weeks or longer) bookings, when possible. I love longer bookings; more time to connect with the pets!
