FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Our basic rate is $22 for a 30 minute visit for up to 2 pets.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I speak with all of our clients by phone before we have our in home consultation. I want to make sure that we are a good match for their needs and that my service is the best option for their pets. I review the policies and gather all the basic information and once I've received the clients' approval, I'm ready to assign a sitter who will then contact the client within 24 hours to schedule the consultation. The sitter comes and meets the client and their pets and gathers all the necessary information so that we can not only provide optimal pet care, but also insure the safety and security of the clients' home. We will fill out our Pet Care Service Agreement as well as a Vet Release Form which authorizes us to respond to your pets' medical emergency if necessary. Then , once the visits are completed, I will personally follow up with the client to insure that the sitter followed their instructions and that they and their pets were happy with the service and care we provided.
