Our pop in pet sitting visits aren’t just limited to cats. They are also an ideal solution for other small pets such as rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters.
Although we are not specialists in exotic pet care we do have experience caring for lizards, frogs, tropical fish and birds. We are more than happy to look after any type of pet and take detailed instructions from yourselves at our initial meeting.
Pop in’s are also perfect for kittens, puppies, elderly or infirm pets, and pets recovering from operations. If you need to work long hours, or are planning a day trip or evening out, we can visit to check on them, let your pooch out for a toilet break, feed if necessary and provide some social interaction, cuddles and playtime to break up the time you are away from them.
Puppy Visits – If you have a new puppy and work long hours we suggest 2-3 x visits per day as puppies need more frequent meals and toilet breaks than adult dogs. Once your puppy has been fully vaccinated we can go for short walks and begin socialising it with other dogs.
Express visit (15 mins, Leighton only): £6.
Standard visit (30 mins): £10.
Prices are based on the length of the visit rather than the number of pets you have.
Dog Walking
Our dog walking service is available from Monday to Friday, primarily between 10:00am and 3:00pm.
We mainly offer individual walks which are ideal for dogs who prefer to be walked alone. However, if your dog does enjoy the company of other dogs, we may pair them up with a suitable canine walking buddy or two. The maximum number of dogs we walk together in a group is four.
Walks take place in a variety of locations to ensure a fun and stimulating experience for your dog. One day we might practice lead walking by doing a pavement walk from your house to a local park for a game of fetch. The next day we might go out in the car to explore the Cheshire countryside and enjoy some off lead play and socialisation.
Your dog will only be let off lead (with your written consent) once we have gotten to know them/are confident in their recall.
30 minute walk: £10.
45 minute walk: £12.50.
60 minute walk: £15.
Additional dogs from the same household (who can be walked together) are half price.
GENERAL INFORMATION
All bookings are subject to an initial ‘meet and greet’ session (free of charge). The purpose of this is to allow us to get to know your pet and discuss their specific requirements, personalities, any medical history that we may need to be aware of, normal routines and feeding instructions etc.. We will also sort out key arrangements (our preferred option is to hold a spare key in our secure safe) and complete paperwork (service agreement, terms and conditions, client and pet information forms, including vet and emergency contact details).
A short trial walk is also included for dog clients. Particularly nervous or anxious dogs may require more than one familiarisation session and we are happy to accommodate this. This is also your opportunity to get to know us and ask any additional questions.
- A 25% non-refundable booking fee is required to confirm cat/pet sitting bookings at peak holiday times.
- A cancellation policy applies and this will be explained at the initial meeting.
- Walks and visits on bank holidays are charged at time and a half (except for Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day which are charged at double time).
- Regular text/photo/video updates will be arranged for all services (no additional charge). These are usually provided via Whatsapp or Messenger.
