Services
Dog Walking
Our professional dog walking service ensures pets receive regular exercise and bathroom breaks during work hours. Each 15-20 minute walk includes individual attention, weather-appropriate pacing, and post-visit email updates with photos. Clients can schedule visits Monday-Friday between 10am-2pm, with optional multiple dog accommodations. This service helps reduce pet anxiety and maintains healthy routines for active dogs.
Cat Sitting
We provide specialized cat sitting services that maintain feline comfort through home-based care. Our 20-minute daily visits include feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, and medication administration. Each visit generates detailed reports with photos to reassure owners. The service covers 1-2 cats per household, with additional fees for multiple pets. Our approach minimizes stress by preserving cats' familiar environments and routines.
Puppy Care
Our puppy care program focuses on socialization, basic training, and routine establishment for new pet owners. Services include customized feeding schedules, potty training, positive reinforcement exercises, and energy-burning play sessions. We recommend twice-daily visits for puppies under four months old. Each visit includes progress reports and photo documentation to track development. This service helps establish lifelong good behavior patterns while providing essential social interaction.
Pet Sitting
Our in-home pet sitting service maintains pets' normal routines while owners travel. Services include feeding, watering, plant care, mail collection, and light management for security. Each visit includes personalized attention and detailed documentation. While we don't offer overnight stays, our daytime visits ensure continuous care. The service extends to small pets like rabbits and birds, with specialized handling expertise for various animal types.
Mid-Day Potty Breaks
Designed for working pet owners, our mid-day potty breaks provide essential bathroom relief and exercise. Each visit includes bathroom assistance, water replenishment, brief feeding if needed, and basic medication administration. The 15-20 minute service helps prevent house-training accidents and reduces pet anxiety during long workdays. Clients receive electronic updates with photos after each visit to monitor their pet's well-being during work hours.
