I provide pet sitting services for dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, birds, and small caged animals (e.g., guinea pigs, hamsters, and rabbits).
All services are for 1-2 pets in the household. If you have 3 or more pets that require care, please contact me for a quote.
I currently do not offer discounts for my services. Pricing is fixed and non-negotiable, reflecting the premium care and specialized attention I provide. I believe in maintaining fair and consistent pricing to ensure every client receives the best possible care for their pets.
I accept cash, checks, Zelle, Venmo, and credit cards. Credit card transactions are performed through Waveapps.com. There is a surcharge fee for all Venmo and credit card transactions.

It is recommended to book your dog walking service at least 1-2 weeks in advance and pet sitting service 4-6 weeks in advance.

To secure your preferred dates and services, I encourage you to contact me as early as possible.
I do not accept short notice or last-minute booking requests from potential new clients.
To cancel or reschedule, please reach out to me at least 3 days before the scheduled service time. This will allow me to adjust my calendar and accommodate any other clients.
