FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I'm available and easy to work with, and I'm available for last-minute requests. Since your furry companion still needs exercise and affection when life hits you with surprises, or you want a last-minute getaway, I am happy to adapt to YOUR schedule. That said, I offer a 15% discount for longer-term pet-sitting jobs.

- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Your dog needs daily exercise in order to stay both physically and mentally healthy...and if your schedule doesn't allow you to regularly hit the trail with your pup, you may need to hire a dog walker. However, this isn't a decision to make lightly: who you choose to walk your dog matters. Anybody can advertise themselves as a dog walker, but that doesn't mean they have the experience or set-up necessary to keep your dog safe and happy. A couple ideas to ensure that your dog walker is well-qualified and a good match with your pup are: ask for recommendations; invite candidates to meet your dog(s); and request that they show you where they will walk your dog, and how many dogs they walk at one time. I also suggest asking them about their background and experience.
