Dog Sitting – In Sitter’s Home

Dog sitting just got a lot more fun! Your pup can now stay the night with his or her favorite walker! Your dog sitter asks that your dog is fully potty trained, comfortable around kids and other dogs/pets, and abides by a few basic rules set by your sitter based on their home. For example, if you prefer your pup sleep in bed with your sitter, make sure that your sitter doesn’t have a house rule against this! We want both sitter and dog to be as comfy and as happy as can be during their stay!

Each sitter will bring something different to your dog’s overnight experience, so it’s best to review their sitter profiles on our Facebook Page or Instagram before booking. All of our dog sitters are required to follow feeding and medication schedules, provide a minimum of 30 minutes of exercise each day, and maintain a daily log for your records. We require our customers to coordinate a drop off and pick up time with their sitter. Please note that you are charged per 24 hours, so the pick-up and drop off time should be the same. Any additional time is charged by the hour.

What to expect with your dog’s stay:

  •  Please complete a packing list with all of the items you are sending with your dog prior to dropping your dog off with his or her sitter. We want to make sure that everything goes home with your dog when it’s time for pick up! (Putting this info in Time to Pet Is always a great Idea.)
  •  Your dog sitter will provide you with a daily update using Time to Pet. You will receive a picture and details of all the fun adventures your dog is having with their sitter
  • Please pack all of your dog’s food, dishes and treats. Make sure to leave clear feeding instructions for your sitter including any allergies or food sensitivities
  • If you have certain rules your dog follows in your house (not allowed on the furniture, must sit before eating, etc.), make sure your sitter knows!
  • A minimum of 30 minutes of daily exercise and time away from their sitter not to exceed 4 hours at a time.
  • You can always meet your sitter prior to their stay. Please e-mail us and we would be happy to arrange this.
  • You are responsible for pick up and drop of your dog. Make sure that the pick-up and drop off time are the same to avoid any additional costs.
