Your Questions, Answered
-
Cat visits are 30 minutes, dog visits from 35 minutes. However, we increase the time according to how many pets are in the household. After completing all the jobs that need to be done, we allow sufficient time for lots of TLC to ensure that your pet is happy and healthy. Our prices reflect the amount of work involved and length of time we believe is appropriate. Of course, if you’re worried your pet needs a longer visit that can be arranged too.

For Pet Sitting bookings, we recommend that you have a lock box on the property to store your key. These can be purchased from hardware stores.
If you plan on making a number of bookings and do not wish to leave a key on the property, we can keep your keys on file but we will need 3 copies to ensure that each sitter has one.
We do not operate a pick up and drop off service for keys.
