Our goal is to always pair you with the same sitter each visit.
However, there are times when the same sitter will not be able to accommodate you.
If a walker request some time off or falls ill. In these rare circumstances our team will assign a temporary fill-in sitter for your cat.
You can cancel a walk or pet sitting reservation at any time!
Just be sure to let us know at least 24 hours in advance for cat sitting reservations, or else the visit will be charged in full.
We maintain a strict 24-hour cancellation policy for cat sitting reservations, which is required as a courtesy to our sitters who rely on the income of their pre-set cat sitting reservations to make a living, and who without sufficient notice, aren’t granted the opportunity of making alternate arrangements to pick up additional visits to make up for the loss of income within the time slot that was originally reserved for your scheduled cat sitting reservation.
As last minute cancellations and reschedules do cause our sitters to lose valuable work hours. We ask that you limit the amount of cancellations to 3 or 4 per year. A consistent, set schedule encourages our cat sitters longevity and reduces turnover rate, resulting in a consistent cat sitter for you and your cat.
Clients will be billed in the beginning of each week prior to your cat sitting reservation. Clients will be emailed an invoice with payment information.
We request that you make your reservation 7 days in advance to ensure a spot. Holidays and weekends are the busiest times for us. Make sure to make a reservation 3-6 weeks in advance.
