Dog Sitting & Dog Walking Information |
 |
| What is your application process? |
|
We begin with a telephone consultation
where we provide a needs assessment and recommendation based
on your schedule and your pet's normal daily routine, energy
level, breed, age and personality. We then schedule a time
to come and meet you and your pets in person, make sure
we know where all of the supplies are, answer any questions
and offer any advice we can for new dog owners. If you wish
to join the Day Camp program, we may bring a dog along to
screen your dog for socialization skills and assess their
ability to join the program. CAC is often the first call
a Member will make when they have a question regarding their
pet and we gladly offer our expert advice on everything
from what dog food to feed to assessing a health condition. |
 |
| Will I meet the pet sitter/walker? |
|
Absolutely! |
 |
| How many dogs do you sit/walk per session? |
|
We provide a personalized service, so when
we are caring for your pets they have our complete and total
attention. Our Doggie Day Camp program offers a social environment
where your dog can socialize and play with up to 10 other
dogs and return to their "roots" with a true pack
experience. Our dog walking services are individual to each
Member - so whether you have 1 dog or 4 dogs - each session
is dedicated to your dogs. We do also offer the "play
date" option if your dog lives nearby another Member
we can arrange a play date - what we call the "Club
Session." |
 |
| How long will you sit/walk my dog? |
|
Our average mid-day walking session is 30
minutes. Day Camp starts at 9 am and finishes between 2
pm - 3 pm weather permitting. Our pet sitting service allows
for longer visits - we try to spend as much time as possible
with each pet in our care. We also offer the option to have
a CAC Pet Care Professional stay in your home to care for
your pets. |
 |
| Do you offer upgrade options to extend the
walk/sit time? |
|
As the mid-day time slots are in high demand,
we can only offer longer sessions as the schedule permits.
However, our Day Camp option provides up to 5 hours of companion
time during the day and is a great option for the social
canine. To give your pets the same comfort they have when
you are at home, our Sleepover Service is the ideal upgrade
when you travel and cannot take your pets along and is a
great alternative to vet or traditional kennel boarding. |
 |
| Can I request off-hours sitting/walking session?
Is there an additional fee for this? |
|
We operate 365 days per year. We have a holiday
rate for nationally recognized holidays like Christmas and
Thanksgiving. |
 |
| What is your cancellation policy? |
|
We require 24 hours notice of a cancellation
for a walk or Camp session. However, our rule of thumb is
that as long as we get your cancellation before we get to
your home, a credit will apply to your account. "No
Shows" are charged anywhere from 50% to 100% of the
service fee at our discretion. During peak seasonal times,
like holidays and spring break, pet sitting services require
two weeks cancellation. Otherwise 48 hours courtesy is requested
for Pet Sitting cancellations. |
 |
| What do you do when my sitter/walker is not
available to walk my dog? |
|
We have suitable staff to ensure that all
of our Members' needs are met at all times. |
 |
| What do you do in case of emergency? |
|
We take immediate action. All CAC staff are
versed in pet first aid. We assess the situation and if
there is any doubt that your pet's health is in danger -
we ensure that your pet is attended to promptly by a veterinarian.
Should your pet require emergency treatment, we immediately
take him to the vet and will contact you while we are in
route to communicate the situation. We will stay in touch
with you throughout the ordeal to keep you up to date on
your pet's condition and act as your proxy to ensure your
wishes are carried out by the attending veterinarian. |
 |
| Do you have a vet on call? |
|
We have long-standing personal relationships
with 4 local veterinarians and there are 3 emergency veterinary
clinics in our area. |
 |
| Have you ever had any incidents with your
clients, such as property damage? |
|
No property damage has ever been caused
by a CAC Staff Member. We will do whatever it takes to get
to your pets in an emergency and have even been asked to
climb through windows for Members to get to their pets when
normal access means have been otherwise disabled due to
power outages or accidentally locked screen doors. |
 |
| Do you provide other services, such as watering
plants and bringing in mail? |
|
We are a full service operation and when
your home and pets are in our care, we not only water plants
and bring in the mail, but we also alter lighting to make
your home appear "lived in" and will meet deliveries
etc. |
