About

I house-sit and pet-sit. Unfortunately, I no longer take care of dogs due to a serious accident. I love animals! I love cats and bearded dragon lizards. I have thirteen years of experience. If you're looking for dependable and responsible care for your pets, I provide exemplary customer service. I look forward to taking care of your furry friends! Any overnight pet-sitting agreements that are a week or more and are cancelled within 24 hours of the first day are subject to a $75.00 inconvenience fee. If it's a legitimate reason like illnesses, accidents, or extreme weather conditions, exceptions will be discussed before the starting date. This is necessary because I'm unable to schedule a client that I could have accepted. I hope this situation won't happen, but this is my business, and my income is dependent on my clients. Thank you for your understanding.

Clare took care of my senior dog and 2 cats for 4 days. My senior needed meds both morning and twice nightly. She did an excellent job. Would have her again.

Clare is mature, responsible and very caring. We were delighted with our experience, will be using her again soon, and have recommended her to a friend. She kept in touch to insure we were comfortable, as we are new customers. She was responsible for our older, medically fragile dog who requires meds, as well as our cat. Clare has excellent references that speak very highly of her.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My rates are $24 per day for 1 or 2 visits; $39 for 2-3 pets; $78 per overnight stay. Includes collecting mail, newspapers, and watering plants (if applicable)
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When I get a request for pet sitting, I usually do a meet and greet with the prospective client to meet the pet and get to know the owner(s) and what services they want. I use a client intake form to get the information needed to do it and I'm fairly thorough. It cuts down on calls or texts interrupting the client's trip.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've had very diverse pets personally like cats, dogs, birds, bearded dragon lizards, gerbils, hamsters, fish, rabbits, and one client with goats.
