Services
Dog Walking
Our dog walking service provides structured outdoor activity tailored to your dog's energy level and health needs. We offer individual neighborhood walks or small group hikes with a maximum of four dogs to ensure safety and personalized attention. Using humane equipment like harnesses instead of choke chains, we prioritize comfort and positive experiences. Regular walks help maintain physical health, reduce behavioral issues, and provide mental stimulation through new environments.
Pet Sitting
Our in-home pet sitting service maintains your pet's routine while you're away, offering meals, playtime, exercise, and medication administration as needed. We visit daily to ensure continuity in a familiar environment, which reduces stress for animals. Services include litter box cleaning, mail collection, and plant watering. This personalized approach works best for pets with specific dietary needs, senior animals, or those requiring regular medical attention, ensuring they remain comfortable in their own space.
Exotic Pet Care
We provide specialized care for non-traditional pets including birds, reptiles, small mammals, and urban chickens. Our team handles unique requirements like administering medications to diabetic pets, nebulizing treatments for birds, or diapering exotic animals. With experience caring for animals ranging from tortoises to honeybees, we understand the specific environmental and dietary needs of exotic species. This service includes habitat maintenance, feeding schedules, and monitoring for signs of stress or illness in non-traditional pets.
Medication Administration
Our medication administration service supports pets requiring regular treatments, including oral medications, injections, and subcutaneous fluids. Trained caregivers follow precise instructions for dosage timing and delivery methods while monitoring for adverse reactions. We maintain detailed records of administered treatments and communicate changes in pet condition to owners. This service works best for post-surgical recovery, chronic condition management, or end-of-life care where consistent medical attention proves critical to the pet's well-being.
Key Service
Our key service offers secure access to your home for pet care visits without compromising safety. We maintain a strict chain of custody for stored keys and follow protocols to prevent unauthorized access. This service eliminates the need for lockout solutions while ensuring pets receive necessary care during owner absences. Compared to traditional lockbox systems, our approach provides greater security through controlled key handling procedures while maintaining convenience for scheduled visits and emergency situations.
