Mid-Day Dog Walks
Your sitter will take your dog(s) out for a break during the day
for
some exercise, fresh air and a potty break. You will have the same
sitter each time.
The visit will last at least 30 minutes. During this time, we concentrate
completely on your dog – we do not do pack walks. Your pooch
receives the sitter’s undivided attention and is not pulled
along or held back by
a group. For puppies, we take them out for a quick bathroom
break as soon as
we get there. After that we bring them back in to eat, if they’re
still eating three times a day, and then go out for the remainder
of
the walk. During our walks, we will happily reinforce any training
techniques you are using.
Vacation Visits When you’re away for an extended period of time, we will come to your home as many times per day as you desire, giving your pets the exercise, stimulation and love they deserve.
For dogs, we generally do three visits a day, spaced 8 hours
apart. For cats and other animals, we usually do 1-2 visits per
day often depending on feeding or medication schedules. Some clients
book two visits per day for their cats for the companionship.
The visit will last 30-40 minutes for up to 3 animals; more time
is allotted as the number of pets increases. We can also
bring in the mail and newspapers, alternate curtains and lights,
set out recycling, etc.
Not only are your pets loved and cared for while you are away,
but our presence can act as a crime deterrent in safekeeping your
home.
