DOG SITTING

2006-02-17T21:33:00.000-05:00

Dog Sitting

Dog sitting visits are on a daily basis and are a minimum of 30 minutes.

We recommend 4 visits daily. This includes morning, mid-afternoon, supper and bed time.

We will not do less then 3 visits per day. This includes morning, afternoon, bed. We strongly believe that dogs cannot get by on less than this per day. Many dogs suffer from separation anxiety and need attention. Also, it is not fair to them to have to hold it for so long without potty break.

Dog sitting visits consist of walking or letting your dog out for potty break, food and fresh water daily.

We will not look after any dogs with a history of aggressive behaviour.

We will not provide sitting services without meeting your dog first.

Dogs must be up to date with vaccinations and proof will be required.
