Overnight Pet Sitting: start at $75 per night. Over night visits provide your pets with a sitter for a minimum of 10 hours per night. The times at which your sitter arrives at the beginning and leaves at the end of the stay will be determined based on the times of your departure and arrival. All regular services listed on the pet-sitting services page are included with overnights. Additional service rates still apply. Additional pet rates will apply for more than 2 dogs or larger animals. A 3rd non-canine household pet will not incur additional fees. Normal relief walks are included. Exercise walks will require additional fees. If I need to drive your pet to where s/he will be walked, additional charges will be incurred unless I am using your car. Though not required snacks & breakfasts are appreciated.

  • Clients in our service area may add a mid-day visit for an additional discounted rate of $12.
  • Clients outside of our regular service area please inquire

Extended Overnight Pet Sitting: start at $115 per night. Extended over night visits provide your pets with a sitter for the entire time you are away. Your sitter may leave for up to 8 hours a day in a 24 period to attend to personal needs/other clients/our own pets. More often than not the time at your home is more than the minimum. The times at which your sitter will arrive at the beginning and leave at the end of the stay will be determined based on the times of your departure and arrival. We typically arrive after you have left and leave before you return. All regular services listed on the pet-sitting services page are included with overnights. Additional service rates and rates for more than 2 dogs or larger animals still apply.

Since your pet sitter basically lives at your house during this time, you are expected to provide food for meals for the duration of the stay. If you choose not to provide food, please add $15 per day for meals. (Click here to get an idea of foods to buy.)

Normal relief walks are included. Exercise walks will require additional fees. If I need to drive your pet to where s/he will be walked, additional charges will be incurred unless I am using your car to do so.

If we have your permission and weather permits, we might even go on an outing to the dog park and/or PetSmart for a treat (only if your kids have good manners...or at least acceptable ones...).

Hours desired OVER the number specified can be scheduled at the rate of $10 per additional hour...this option may not be possible during some busy holidays..

Limited In-Our Home Boarding

About Keeping Your Pet In Our Home: We are more expensive than a boarding kennel. This is because we do not generally accomadate more than 2 families pets at the same time. When your pets stay with us, s/he will not be kept in a little cage with only two or three 5 minute walks per day. Your pet will be treated as a member of our own family. They will be given constant love and attention. They will be allowed to lay on the furniture and in our laps. They may even sleep in our beds with us! Unless you instruct us otherwise, they will get various treats throughout the day as our own pets do.

Dogs MUST be house broken or at least crate trained. Or a puppy. This is a wonderful option for puppies to continue to be worked with on things like crate and house training, basic commands and GREAT socialization. Little puppies will not always get free run of the house and might get confined to an indoor exercise pen when they can't be supervised.

We have a 500sq foot dog run for playtime which is inside our fully fenced backyard.

Dogs over 30 pounds are not eleigible for in my home boarding unless I know them and have spent time with them and told you they are eligible. Most big or multi dog families that stay with me were regular visit or overnight clients first. (Or started as puppies.) Dogs over 30# that I have not previously done overnights with must come to my house for a playdate with my dogs to make sure they will get along prior to being accepted. In My Home Boarding is for well behaved, social dogs that are not destructive.

I can not board dogs that are agressive to humans or other animals in my home, but I do offer other options for them. If your baby doesn't enjoy playtime with other dogs (I have 4!) or wants to eat cats or furniture or my shoes, in Your Home visits or stays would be the better option.

Dogs:
0-20 pounds
rates start at $30 per night for the first dog; $15 for each additional dog.
21-40 pounds
rates start at $40 per night for the first dog; $20 for each additional dog.
41-74 pounds rates start at $50 per night for the first dog; $25 for each additional dog.

75+ pounds rates start at $60 per night for the first dog; $30 for each additional dog.

If your dogs are different sizes, the largest dog will be billed as the first dog and the additional dog rate will apply for the smaller.

If your dog is accepted for in my home boarding, please note: You will be 100% responsible for any damage your dog does to my property, person and/or pets.

Home checks (check mail/ water plants) in conjunction with boarding will be $15 per visit to homes within our service area.

Cats: Cats REALLY do not do well in baording situations. Being able to be cared for in their own home is almost always the best choice for a cat. Small kittens are different and usually benefit from the extra attention. Boarding for adult cats in my home is $30 for the first cat and $20 for each additional cat. Grown cats will be confined to a single room.

Kittens under 4 months old $15 per night.

Other Animals: Contact us Caged animals vary by the amount of space and care required. Reptiles, unusual and pocket-pets welcome. Average ($5-15/day.).

ROYAL TREATMENT: This is for extremely spoiled dogs, or dogs with seperation anxiety that can NOT be left alone and require constant attention. For an extra $25 per day charge I clear my schedule, have others cover daily visits and stay home to devote the necessary time to them.
