Dog walks, drop-ins, and short-term pet sitting can be booked 1 to 3 weeks in advance. Overnight stays can be booked 4 to 6 weeks in advance. Bookings are accepted up to six (6) months in advance. If you wish to schedule a service beyond this, please contact me. These time frames are estimates and do not guarantee availability, as my schedule fills up quickly, especially during the busy summer months and major holidays.

I completely understand that life happens and plans can change. If you’re able to cancel in advance, I truly appreciate it, as it helps me adjust my schedule and offer that time to other clients who may have requested your time slot. Below are the cancellation policies for pet sitting and dog walking. To cancel a dog walking or pet sitting booking (excluding overnight stays), please notify me at least two (2) days before your scheduled service. Cancellations made one (1) day before your scheduled service will be charged 50% of that service. Cancellations made on the same day as the scheduled service, or if you return home before the end of your service will be charged the full amount. ​ Cancellation of Overnight Bookings To cancel an overnight booking, please notify me at least five (5) days before your scheduled service. Cancellations made less than five (5) days in advance will be charged 50% of that service. Cancellations made on the same day as the scheduled service, or if you return home before the end of your service will be charged the full amount. ​ Cancellation fees will not be waived for weather conditions, illness, trip interruptions, trip cancellations, or event cancellations.

I want to make sure your service is always reliable, even on holidays.

​​If you need to book a service with short notice, please note, there is a $10 fee for any booking made one (1) day before or on the same day as your requested service date. ​​ Currently, I only accept short notice and same day booking requests from existing clients.
