Here's what safety and consistency actually look like, service by service. HOUSE SITTING: I stay in your home for the full length of the booking. My default is to be there, fully present, one on one, the whole time. What that looks like in practice depends on your dog. Some pets do fine with a short window alone, others don't, and that's not something I guess at. We'll talk through it before booking so I know exactly what your dog can handle, and I'll always make the call that's right for them, not what's easiest for me. For example, I go to church on Sundays, normally about 2 hours. If a dog is comfortable with that, I'll go. If I'm not confident they are, I stay, even if I've already been told it's fine. That happened on a recent booking, I was given the OK to go, but I didn't feel right about it, so I watched the service online instead and stayed with the dogs. Meals, walks, medication, and playtime happen on the schedule you set. If you're not a schedule type of person, then just let me know what you would require in terms of responsibility on my end. Overnight, your dog stays wherever they normally would. If that's the bed, it's the bed. If that's their own spot, it's their own spot. I follow your house, not the other way around. If you have any plants that need watering, or mail and packages that need to come in, I'm happy to include that in my service. Pictures: I love taking them. I have an eye for capturing great moments, so unless you tell me otherwise, I'll be sending them your way. Communication: This is based on your comfort level. I typically send one update in the morning and one in the evening, but if you'd like more or less, just tell me. DAYTIME CARE (in your home): Need coverage for part of the day instead of overnight? I also offer an 8 hour Daytime Care block, $129 flat, additional dogs $20 flat. Please request through House Sitting and I'll adjust the pricing before we confirm. DROP-INS: Visits run 30 minutes, with longer time available. Potty break, feeding, fresh water, enrichment/play time would be my suggestion. But if you have a different routine you’d like me follow please let me know. Quick doesn't mean rushed. Calm, efficient, connected is the goal. *during summer AZ months my recommendation is drop ins* WALKS: 30 minutes is standard, with longer walks available on request. The pace is set by your dog. Some days it's a slow "Snifari" kind of walk, where the neighborhood message board is filled with interesting updates. 🐶: "Wow, Winston got two pup cups in one day… hmm, how do I get the algorithm to put that on my pet parent's FYP page?" Other days it's a high-energy, work off those extra treats kind of day. I follow their lead and read what they need. Hopefully I've covered everything. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out :)
