Professional Dog Walking and Pet Sitting in West Palm Beach FL
Dog Walker and Pet Sitter Services
Contact us today at 561-686-2900. We will arrange a complimentary interview to meet you and your pet to see if we are a good match. We gather many details about your pet and home. We go over your pets needs and our agreement. If we all agree, paperwork is completed and payment or a deposit is accepted. Sorry no credit cards.
Our rates depend on the type of service, if medication is required, the number of pets and the time it takes to provide care for them properly. We also care for your home and provide an extra measure of security. We can offer assistance during an emergency when you are away. We bring in the mail, packages and see that your trash and recycles are handled on appropriate days. Rates are by visit and will be determined by Pet At Home at the meet and greet.
That depends on the needs of your pet, but never less than once per day for cats, fish and other non-canine animals. Dogs normally require a minimum of 2 visits per day, unless it’s for a single dog walk such as
our, “Piddle in the Middle Service”.
Even though cats are independent they need to be checked on at least daily. We want to make sure that your cat stays healthy. Two days can be too long to react to an illness such as a urinary blockage. Also, stress plays a big impact on cats health and a daily visits offers consistency and love.
Friends are usually well intended, but can cause a liability for us. Non-professionals sitters may not be focused on your pet. Pets can ingest things they shouldn’t. Doors can be left open or unlocked, friends might forget the visit entirely. Pets can escape their collars or harnesses and get lost or worse!
