Q. What is the purpose of a meet and greet?

- Understand your pet's daily routine.
- Review services and pricing.
- Receive a key and instructions to enter your home.
- Answer any questions you may have about the service.
Q. What if I am a returning client?
A. Returning clients who are regular clients and book services weekly or monthly can just send us an email or text us their pet requests and we will schedule the service and an invoice will be sent. Occasional or vacation clients can go on line and book and pay directly from the website. Please Note: We do get very busy and book up around holidays and peak seasons. Clients are encourage to book at least two weeks in advance.
