Overnight house sitting
Someone sleeps at your home each night you're gone. Mail and packages brought in, plants watered, lights and blinds changed so the house looks lived in. Overnights run 7 pm to 7 am. Add a midday visit for $30 if your pets need a lunchtime break.
From $85 a night
Overnight pet sitting
Your pets sleep at home, on their own schedule, with someone there. Feeding and fresh water on your schedule, walks and time outside, company overnight. Pets we care for: Dogs, cats, and small caged pets. Chickens and other backyard animals case by case. No livestock, and no dogs with a bite history.
From $95 a night
Drop-in pet visits
Morning and evening visits when an overnight stay is more than you need. Feeding and fresh water, a walk or time in the yard, and a quick look around the house. Drop-in visits are 30 minutes: feed, water, a potty break or litter scoop, some play, and a photo to you. A 60-minute visit is $45.
From $28 a visit

Sitting questions
Do we meet before I book?
Yes. We meet you and your pets at your home first, and you get the price in writing after.
Is someone at the house all day?
Overnights cover 7 pm to 7 am. During the day we're out on other jobs, so dogs who need a lunchtime break get a midday visit, and we agree the plan before you leave.
What if the sitter gets sick during my trip?
Pets are never skipped. Your booking confirmation names a backup sitter you can approve or decline before you leave. If an emergency keeps us away, that person covers the visits and you hear from us the moment it happens.
What happens if my pet gets sick or hurt?
We call you first. If we can't reach you, we take your pet to your vet or the nearest emergency clinic and authorize care up to the amount you set on the pet form ($500 unless you say otherwise). You cover the vet bill; we don't charge for the trip.
How do you handle my keys and alarm code?
You can use a door code or a lockbox. If you give us a key, it's tagged with a code and stored locked. Alarm codes are never kept with the key.
