Because of the variety of pets that I currently own, or have owned in the past, I can provide excellent care for cats, hamsters, gerbils, rats, guinea pigs, and small birds such as parakeets and canaries. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond my control, as of April 2023, I'm no longer able to offer vacation coverage for dogs or provide overnight pet care. Other pets, such as reptiles, tropical fish, and large birds require, and are deserving of, specialized care that I do not feel qualified to provide.
By now, you're probably asking yourself, "What are the charges for these services?". There is no simple "one size fits all" answer to your question, because every client and every pet is unique, and charges are dependent upon the services provided to meet the specific needs of YOUR pet. They are based on: 1) the number and types of pets you own, 2) the distance traveled both to and from your location and the time it takes to do so, and 3) the amount of time that I spend with your pets. Fees start at $10 if you live very close to my location and I just "pop in" for a quick visit. Typical charges range from $15 to $35 per visit. I'm available on most holidays, but there may be an additional charge for each visit to your home on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, and New Year's Day. There is no charge for an initial consultation at your home, and, at that time, I will be able to determine the cost of each visit.
