FAQ
Questions? We have treats. And answers.
Everything you need to know before your first visit. Can't find yours? Give us a shout.
How does the free meet and greet work?
Before your first booking, your caregiver visits your home for about 20 minutes to meet your pets, learn their routine and go over keys, feeding and any medication. It is free and there is no obligation to book.
Are your caregivers insured and background checked?
Yes. Every caregiver passes a background check, is trained in pet first aid and is covered by our liability insurance and bonding.
Will I get the same caregiver every time?
For regular bookings, yes. You get one main caregiver plus a backup who has also met your pets, so there is always a familiar face, even on holidays and sick days.
How do you keep my keys and home safe?
Keys are coded and stored in a locked safe, never labeled with your address. We are also happy to use lockboxes, smart locks or door codes.
What happens if my pet gets sick or hurt?
We contact you right away and, if needed, take your pet to your regular vet or the nearest emergency clinic. We collect your vet details and emergency contacts at the meet and greet.
How far ahead should I book, and can I cancel?
A week ahead is ideal, and holidays fill up fast, so book those a month or more in advance. You can cancel free of charge up to 24 hours before a visit, or 72 hours before an overnight stay.
