“Alicia and Van have been a godsend!!! They committed to walking my brother's dog every morning for over 3 weeks. He is recovering from a broken hip and it has been difficult for him to walk his dog properly. We found Van and Alicia and couldn't have been happier. They truly enjoy what they do and have helped my brother is other ways too - assisting with feeding Zandi. I can't say enough wonderful things about them. The one thing i will say - is your fur-baby is in the best of hands with them and they would be lucky to have them care for them!!!!”

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
