Frequently Asked Questions

This section of our website was created so we could give you questions and answers to some common queries about our services.

How often do I need a Dog Walker?
As often as you want us! Usually customers request 1 to 5 days a week for dog walking.

Do you walk dogs on evenings or weekends?
Yes. There is an additional $10 fee for evenings and $15 for weekends.

What happens when it rains?
We work in all weather. Your dogs will still need to go out even though it is raining. They will be able to go out and relieve themselves. We will bring towels to dry them off before letting them back in.

What about Holidays?
We do work on Holidays!  Consult our Services and Rates page for details about our holiday rates.

Should I provide you with a key?

Are you Bonded & Insured?
Yes, we are both Bonded and Insured. Copies of each will be provided to you at your initial interview.

What if I want to skip a service day?
You will not be charged if you call the company office to cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled service.

How do I pay you?
DOG WALKING: We will send you an invoice via email (or leave it at your house) at the end of each week. You can either mail a check or leave a check/cash at your home during one of our services and we will pick it up.
PET SITTING: First-time clients are billed in advanced. 50% up front and 50% upon return.

Are there any contracts to sign?
Yes -- But, you can start and stop your service at any time. There is no minimum service period and you may cancel at any time (provided you give 24 hours notice before a scheduled service).

Do you accept credit cards?
No, we accept checks and cash.

Do you offer a customer referral program?
YOU BET WE DO!! When you refer a new customer to us you will get ONE REGULAR SERVICE DAY FREE.

What if my dog is aggressive?
We have the right to refuse service if we feel your dog is a threat to us or our workers. It is the dog owner's responsibility to disclose any relevant information pertaining to the dogs temperament. The dog owner is responsible for all medical expenses if we are attacked or bitten by their dog.
