Pricing
  • FREE Initial Meet and Greet.
    If a second meet is necessary the fee will be $20.00 per ½ hour.

    The FREE initial Meet and Greet is an essential step in becoming acquainted with you,
    your pet(s) and your home. This time is also spent discussing your pet(s) needs for comfort and care as well as completing the necessary paper work and answering questions.

  • Overnight Stays - $70.00 (Prices may fluctuate with economy)
    Animals prefer to be in their own surroundings and natural habitat so they can feel comfortable, familiar and at home. Keeping your pets at home creates the consistency as if their caretakers are still at home. When we pet sit your animals the sitter can keep a close eye on any changes in health and or behavior so if any attention is needed your pet will be taken care of immediately. When you come home you can expect wagging tails and purring kitty's and remember at anytime you are away you may call and talk directly to the person taking care of your pets. Only you can love them more! Our overnight stays include taking out trash, rotating lights, bringing in the newspaper/mail, watering of up to 7 indoor plants (indoor plants exceeding this maximum will be pro-rated at $20 per hour) and anything else needed for your home to appear occupied while you’re away. Arrival time is between 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and departure is between 6:00 a.m. and 8:00a.m. Overnight stays can be specialized to your pets needs. This fee applies for a maximum of two dogs and two cats. Each additional dog is $10 and each additional cat is $5!

  • Dog Walking/Potty Breaks - $20.00 per ½ hour (Prices may fluctuate with economy)
    Manners are an important standard we take pride in and practice while walking your dog(s). Creating a walking routine keeps your dog(s) healthy, well balanced, happy and training maintained! The rules you have set for your own pet(s) are as important to us as they are to you, whether it be practicing a sit-stay command or us looking both ways before we cross intersections, your pet obeys the rules you have set for them. Most people think that a dog walk is just walking a dog. The whole experience includes giving praise when appropriate, however they are stimulated whether by treats or praise, we only use environmentally friendly waste bags and roadside common sense. ½ hour walks are $20 per ½ hour at the base rate of up to two dogs, only if the two dogs are good together on walks. If dogs need to be walked separate, the charge will be $20.00 dollars each dog. This decision will be determined by the pet sitter.

  • Check-ins - $20.00 per ½ hour (Prices may fluctuate with economy)
    Does your pet need a visitor to check in on them during the day, a little hello, some TLC or just knowing they haven't been left home alone? Check-ins are for your critters that just need a little something extra, whether it be love and attention, companionship, feeding meals and giving fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime/potty time in the backyard including waste removal incurred from the current visit, teeth brushing, medication, socialization and we'll even brush them while we're there! This fee applies to 2 dogs and 2 cats. Each additional dog is $10 and each additional cat is $5. Dog walking is not included in this service.

  • Five Paw Hotel Service - 1-2 hours $50/hour. 3+ hours $40/hour
    I love to spoil, so when you have to be away from your furbabies expect nothing less than them being spoiled rotten! The variety of options are as unique as your pet. Please inquire for the many custom services available to choose from.
