Over and Out Petsitting

Introduction: Thank you for your interest in Over and Out Petsitting. I hope all is well with you and yours. Hi, I’m Robin Grossman. I am Over and Out Petsitting. I have both vaccines and I'm boosted, Clients will likewise show that they're vaccinated because I am immune compromised and I have clients who are even worse off than me. I'm a long time pet sitter and dog walker with many clients. I started when I was in high school, but officially in Los Angeles in 2004. My job is to keep the dog or cat's routine the same, so there is no stress for either the pet or the client that makes everyone happy. I always give my clients more than the clients expect because their pets are worth it. Always. I operate by the Golden Rule. It just makes life easier for me. I’m also insured and bonded. At this time only dogwalking and cat sitting is offered. Overnight petsitting will be offered when clients can show vaccination.

Difficult dog/cat or difficult medicine is an extra $5. Dogwalks after 8pm are an extra $5. * Individual walks are paid at time of service. WEEKLY CLIENT DISCOUNTS --- Whoo! 10% OFF on (5 or more) visits of 30 or 60 min. 10% OFF on (5 or more) TWICE A DAY 30 or 60 min visits. Weekly clients pay at the end of the week. Late payment will likely cost the client an extra $5. ​ MAJOR HOLIDAYS are an extra $10/day, BUT NOTE: CHRISTMAS WEEK, THANKSGIVING WEEK, and NEW YEAR'S WEEK are an extra $10/day. PHOTOS My clients love me because I take amazing pictures of their pets and the emailed/texted photos are an extra assurance that I am there looking after their loved ones. I've even done Facetime with my clients, so they can see their furry loved ones. I'M THERE FOR MY CLIENTS, if they have a 16-year-old and 35 lb. beagle with cancer and incontinence who needs to be carried outside multiple times a day or night. Or if they have a 5 A.M. flight and they need me at their house at 4 A.M Or if my clients forgot their medication or passports and they need me to FedEX it stat. My clients trust me to get the job done because I operate on the golden rule and the boys scout rule of leave no trace; this means I treat your pets and your home the way I would want my pets and my home treated. I clean before I leave. I don't clean the whole house, but the areas that I used or the pets messed up get wiped down or vacuumed. My only Achilles Heel is that I can't make a bed to save my life. I love taking cat and dog photos. I really like turning on my creative side and using my 20+ years of Photoshop to turn my photos into something special clients would like to own. It's a different kind of memento. And now most of my clients have given me permission to use my photos of their pets in my online store. ***Contact for details. *** Since I work by myself, I'm hoping the extra income from this store will help pay some bills, if I get laid up by an accident or my breast cancer returns. I don't expect to make a lot of money since I think my only buyers will be my clients, who want a unique memento of their favorite furry family member. *** OVERNIGHT PETSITTING -- CLIENTS and frequent visitors of Clients home must be VACCINATED *** 12 HR OVERNIGHT PETSITTING......$80 (3 dogwalks) Includes 2 evening walks and 1 morning walk. I sleep over and care for your dog. If your dog is used to sleeping in your bed, I'll be happy to bunk with him. : D This includes 3 walks, which depends on the health and needs of your dog as well as weather conditions. Overnights include feeding, clean up, play, taking in mail, watering plants, changing lights on/off, taking out garbage, and unlocking/re-locking gate for the gardener. I generally do not do overnights for just cats, but if that's what you need, I'm happy to be of service. I clean up before I leave so I leave no trace. I bring my own food. VACATION OVERNIGHT PETSITTING Your home becomes my home base. This means I spend more hours looking after your pet than you could afford to pay. Includes 12 hr Overnight rate (3 walks)....$80 + $25 $80 overnight plus $25 dollars for the rest of the day because I may have other dog walking clients. So that’s roughly $105 per 24 hours or $4.37/hr. Vacations that are 2 weeks or longer get a 10% discount. But let's say I'm away for 4 hours dog walking other client's dogs, I'm still petsitting your dogs for 20 hours and that works out to $5.25/hr. That’s a great deal. Your place is looked after, your pets get the best personal care and playtime, and you get frequent updates of photos, videos of your pet(s). I send a lot of photos. : D Most of my clients hire me for vacation petsitting. I sleepover at their house or apartment. I bring my own food and I look after their pets. The pets get a lot of attention because I sit where they sit and I pet them for hours, while we play or watch TV. I walk them. I brush them. I give them treats. They sleep in the bed with me if they're used to sleeping in the bed with my client. My clients love me because they know that weekly clients and vacationing clients get a favorable discount. We can always work something out to keep everyone happy.
