Question 19

Why are your prices higher than others?

Accepted Answer

If compared to other professional pet sitting companies in the area, our prices are the comparable, if not a little less.  We offer simple flat rate pricing and do not charge a lot of  extra or hidden fees that others charge. (i.e. fees for additional pets, medication administration, weekends, holidays, cancellation fees, etc.)

If compared to individual pet sitters, our pricing might be higher due to our operating expenses and cost to maintain our credentials.  Individual sitters  may not have the years of experience, or make the investment in pet care education, certifications, association memberships, insurance, etc.  They also may not be able to offer a back-up sitter in the case of an emergency.

If compared to online platforms like Rover, those rates can be all over the board.  Our pricing might be higher due to our operating expenses and cost to maintain our credentials. These type of apps usually consist of people who pet sit as a side hustle.  The majority of the sitters do not have the years of experience, nor do they make the investment in pet care education, certifications, association memberships, insurance, etc.  They also do not offer a back-up sitter in the case of an emergency.

Question 20

Can you care for small animals other than rabbits?

Accepted Answer

While our primary focus is on rabbits, we have experience caring for other small animals as well and would be happy to assist with your pet sitting needs.

Question 21

Can you care for other pets in addition to rabbits?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if you have other pets in your home in addition to rabbits, we can care for most, depending on the type of pet. We charge a flat rate fee based on the visit time, so there would not be an additional charge unless you have a dog that requires walking.
