Pet Sitting

Pet Sitting Services

We offer a range of pet sitting services to accommodate all types of animals—furry, feathered, and scaly. Our flexible options include one-time visits, weekly check-ins, and overnight stays, ensuring your pets receive the care and attention they deserve while you're away.

I have extensive experience not only with dogs and cats but also with small critters such as hamsters, guinea pigs, hedgehogs, and mice. I am also experienced in handling various bird species, from small cockatiels to hawks and owls. Additionally, I have cared for reptiles, including snakes, lizards, turtles, and fish. With over a year of experience in an AZA-accredited zoo's educational classroom, where I handled and educated others about the animals in our care, I am confident in my ability to care for a wide variety of pets.

Cost:

• Drop-In Visits: $15 for first pet (+$5 per additional pet)
  This visit includes checking on your pets, feeding (if needed), administering medication, and letting them out for a bathroom break. Visits typically last 15-20 minutes.

• Extended Drop-In Visits: $25 for first pet (+$5 per additional pet)
  This visit includes checking on your pets, feeding, administering medication, a bathroom break, and additional time for interaction. The extra time allows for playing, cuddling, or providing extra snacks. These visits generally last about 40 minutes.

• Full Day Sitting: $60 per day for first pet (+$5 per additional pet)
  This service includes all the care your pet needs throughout the day. We will spend several hours engaging with your pets, providing playtime, cuddles, and undivided attention to ensure they feel loved and cared for.

• Overnight Stays: $25 for first pet (+$5 per additional pet)
  This service involves the pet sitter staying overnight in your home with your pet. Overnight stays are intended as an add-on to other visits if needed. Please note that overnight stays are subject to the comfort level of the pet professional. If the pet sitter is not comfortable with the overnight stay, the owner will need to arrange for alternative accommodations.
