Hello I am here to serve you by planning a CUSTOM plan of ATTENTIVE AND PAMPERED Care for your pets while you are away. I want you to be rest assured that your home and pets are safe , secure and happy!
Unlike most pest sitters who drop in for a visit for two during the day and then leave to do dog walks or care for other animaIs and then return later in the evening to spend the night. I prefer to to do IN-YOUR-HOME OVERNITE CARE 24/7. Rather than drop in visits, I believe this gives your pets more company and continuous round the clock care, as I am typically home the majority of the time I am doing a job (I try not to be gone longer than 2-4 hours at a time if I am running an errand or at an appt) and it keeps the animals normal routine intact.***( In addition, you get more of me and my time for your money.
​
NEED A RIDE TO OR FROM THE AIRPORT to go on your trip??? I've gotcha covered for $20-$50 extra fee, depending on your location (designed to be less expensive than an uber and is an opportunity for me to earn extra income!) Win! Win!
* I try to keep the house a little neater than when I got there and I always bring my own food ( *unless food or a food allowance is offered. This is not expected but GREATLY APPRECIATED). I pick up mail, packages, newspapers and meet any service or repair people needing to come in. Take out the garbage and recycling and wheel bins back to house. I water plants indoors and out if needed. (If there is a large garden or outdoor area to be watered I charge an additional fee TBD for watering days) I also like to leave a little token of my appreciation for family members when I leave and surprise you while you are away with a texts and photos of your pet to send you a little LOVE from home!
RATES: My base area is N/NE Portland and the rate is $85 for first pet with no *special needs* (Special needs pets: medications, incontinence, SR dogs with additional needs, puppies are $10-$30 extra per day depending on the circumstances due to additional work) additional pets $10 each.
***Also if you live out of my base area such as West hills, Vancouver, Camas, Forest Grove, Woodburn Gresham, Sandy, etc it is typically $125-$150 per day depending on location, pet needs, number of pets, etc. However this price is TBD at the meet and greet once location from base area has been assessed and also the # of pets and the various needs of the pet (s).
* HIGH MAINTENANCE HOUSES: Extra indoor pee/poo clean up, Extra outdoor critter feeding filling of more than one bird feeder ,piles of dishes left in the kitchen sink and other extreme mess. I am happy to to keep your home neat and tidy and pick up after myself, however if I am left to stay in a messy house I can't help but clean it and I would like to be compensated for that work. additional rate per day TBD
PETS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS *(THIS IS MY SPECIALTY)* : Elderly Dogs need more care due to blindness /deafness/arthritis and other Physical needs and excessive incontinence, or needing medication or puppies 2-4 months old that might be potty training, will be an additional cost per day TBD this is because these dogs require a lot more work on my part and likely need me to stay with them full time, (which is more than a typical average pet sitter provides.
​
DROP IN PET SITTING and or PUPPY/KITTEN SITTING: Typically $25 and up Per HOUR with a 2 hour minimum (depending on location)
​
***(Meal allowance, Door Dash cards or food provided and Gratuity Tip are optional and not expected but are
ALWAYS GREATLY APPRECIATED and helpful to me as I usually then don't leave your pet unattended other than for a possible short appt.)***

Valentine's Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, and New Year's Day.
