People often ask me what I charge for in-home pet sitting. Just like a boarding facility/ resort, it's not a one-size-fits-all (age, breed, etc. matter). I do a meet and greet in your home, ask questions (like number of walks & meals per day, medications, any special needs, likes and dislikes, activities…), spend time with your pet(s), and answer your questions, before providing a rate. Photos below give an example of what a pet resort south of Sarasota charges, which is less than the downtown area. Walks are extra. So is 1:1 time. Play times are with other animals at the resort, which some dogs love but for others can be scary. I do what you normally do, so if your dog loves to see friends in the neighborhood or at the dog park, we do that. Typically, all that I provide would cost between $160 and $200 per day at a resort. I charge between $85 and $130, additional pets slightly more. This allows for your pet to be in the comfort of their own space with all of their things, doing all of their usual activities. I'm also with them through thunderstorms and any health issues that might arrise. You receive photos/videos every few days up to twice a day, depending on your preference. Of course they receive a "tuck in" at night and plenty of snuggles, or just me nearby, at no extra charge 😉 DM me if you'd like to arrange a meet up at least a few weeks, if not months, prior to your trip. Please provide a reference. I have clients you can ask about me. Home services while you are away are available à la cart. 🐾🐾
