Every petsitting visit is thoughtfully designed to meet each pet's individual needs and each client's specific requests. This is just a breakdown of our RATES. For more details on the actual services themselves, please visit the SERVICES section of this website. Prices will vary based on the length of each visit, number and types of pets, and travel time/distance.
Here are our general rates for typical visits WITHIN THE LAKE OSWEGO AREA:

VACATION PET CARE
* cat sitting...... $20 plus $2 each additional cat
* dog sitting...... $25 plus $5 each additional dog
* multiple breed sitting...... starting at $30 per visit

DOG WALKING SERVICES
* dog walking...... $25 for one dog plus $5 per additional dog.
* discounted weekday walks...... starting at $20 each with pre-paid monthly contracts. You can book Monday through Friday visits, Tuesday/Thursday visits, or whatever best meets your hectic schedule.

SLEEP-OVERS
* the overnight...... $50 per night for CATS, and $75 per night for DOGS, for a 12 hour period, in your home. This includes a good evening dog walk (to tire them out before bed) and an AM dog walk before the sitter leaves the following day.
* housesitting...... $100 per night in your home. This goes from your pets' regular dinnertime through breakfast and includes a midday potty break (a total of 3 walks a day). This popular service books up fast and is a more comprehensive option for the higher-needs pets. The price also includes any medicating your pet might need.

PLAY DATES
* yard time...... $15 for 15 minutes. Additional time may be purchased at $5 per 15 minutes (no matter the number of dogs). This is a very popular service in the summer months when dogs are prone to coming down with "cabin fever" and clients are more prone to coming down with "guilt" for leaving their dogs inside during a beautiful day. We will come by and let them out into their own fenced yard, play some ball or fetch with them, and/or just allow them time to go potty, chase squirrels, and enjoy some fresh air for a bit.
* dog park excursions...... $40 for one dog for one hour (this includes travel time). We can schedule special field trips for your dog to run free, play, and socialize with other dogs at designated leash-free dog parks. Only well-behaved dogs with basic training will qualify for this fun and unique service.

DOGGY DAY CARE & BOARDING
Although we are typically in-home pet care providers only, the occasion does arrive when a client has their house on the market and needs a pet-free home on "open house" day, or perhaps some out-of-town company has unforseen pet allergies. These are our rates for pet care in the petsitter's home:
* doggy day care...... $30 per day (12 hrs. max.) + $10 to add additional dog from same household.
* boarding...... $50 per 24 hrs. (full-time quality care) + $20 to add additional dog from same household
* for cat boarding...... visit "The Cat's Pajamas" at helpyourcat.com

PET SHUTTLE
* groomer's hours conflicts with your schedule?...... $1 per mile and we will get your pets to their important appointments on time.

CLIENT~SITTER MEETINGS
* initial consultation...... free of charge. All new account set-up and administrative fees waived! This is when we take care of your paperwork (animal health record and service contract) and it is also a good time to have a copy of your house key handy. Your pets will be "booked" with us once payment has been made. So, the consult is the best time to take care of the money part as well.
* future meetings...... $30 per hour with a 1/2 hour minimum. Key pick-ups and drop-offs billed at $10 each.

Any petsitting visits which require the sitter to be in your home at a very specific time (such as in the case of a pet needing medications administered at certain intervals) may be subject to a surcharge, due to potential scheduling difficulties or conflicts.


A comprehensive "Rates and Policies" sheet will be provided to you, along with excellent references, during your initial consultation and interview.

~~~~~~

Cash, Checks, VISA, MasterCard, American Express, Discover,
and online PayPal deductions from your checking account
are all accepted forms of payment, for your convenience.
