Bookings Policy

Bookings must be made through the office during Business Hours

For new clients, please make contact via our website Become A Client . We suggest New Clients book at least 3 months in advance so we can do the Meet and Greet followed by a trial before the start of the booking. It also gives us time to try and find another sStter or company if it doesn’t work out

Existing Clients can make bookings via Text, E-mail, Facebook Messenger or Instagram Message

The Office will not be responsible for issues relating to Bookings made without the Office’s knowledge

Unsecured Pets Policy

We will not accept jobs where the pet/s is/are not securely enclosed within the property, ie. fully enclosed garden, as the risk of escape is too great

Details of the Pet/s address will be kept confidential, as will the Date/s that the property is unoccupied. We will post pictures of your pet/s on Social Media on a daily basis, unless specifically requested by You not to do so

Weather Policy

In extreme weather, we will endeavour to move service times accordingly to keep the pet/s safe ( ie we may arrive/leave earlier or later than planned)

We will always inform you of our intention to change the service time as soon as possible
