Frequently Asked Questions

• What services do you offer? Dog walking? Boarding? Sitting? Grooming?

  We offer in-home pet sitting.

  In addition to taking care of your pets, we'd be happy to bring in the mail, water the plants, burp your kimchi, and probably just about anything else that needs doing.

• What areas do you service?

  We'd love to watch your pets anywhere in the NYC metro area: all five boroughs of New York City, plus central / northern New Jersey and parts of NY adjacent to NYC.

  I suppose we'd be open to other spots too, but that's our home base at the moment.

• How much do you charge for pet sitting?

  It depends on the pet/house situation, time of year, our schedules, etc, but in general we shoot for "a little less than the going rate".

  

• Are you responsible? Can I entrust you with Fluffy, Spot and my house?

  We are about as responsible as you can get, without being completely boring.

  We're both in our early forties and between the two of us, our average credit score is ~835. We've been pet owners/lovers our entire lives, and home owners for the past 13+ years.

  Jeff is also an accomplished handyman (like once built a house) so it's likely that if anything comes up, he can at least triage it, and maybe just get it sorted.

• My pet requries special care (eg medicine), can you handle that?

  Probably.

  We both have a good bit of experience taking care of very young pets (puppies, kittens), very old elderly / senior pets and administering medication. Administering pills and drops to dogs and cats should be no problem, however IV medication is probably beyond what we'd be comfortable taking on.

• Why does this site look like it's from the 90s? Is it a hipster throwback thing?

  Nope, we're just that old.

  We (Jeff, really) cut his teeth on a 386 in the age of dial up and web rings. He yearns for simpler times when people hand crafted HTML and cursed Microsoft for Internet Explorer's nonstandard rendering of W3C standards.
