Frequently asked questions
When the weather is bad, we have a few options for making sure your dog gets their exercise and potty break:
We can adjust the visit time and come a little earlier or later to avoid the bad weather.
If the weather’s not too severe and your dog doesn’t mind, we can go for our usual walk and towel your dog off when we get back.
We can shorten the walk to a quick potty break and quick exercise.
Occasionally, the weather is severe enough that it’s not safe for our dog walkers to drive to your house and we may have to cancel your walk for that day.
We schedule on a first, come first serve basis and recommend booking pet sitting services as soon as you know your travel dates. Most of the time, booking 1-3 weeks in advance is sufficient, but during major travel holidays and other high-demand times we sometimes book up a month or more in advance. For dog walking we ask you book 72- hours in advance, we do take a last-minute booking with a $15 last-minute fee.
