Introduction

I housesit, petsit, and walk dogs. I love animals! I love cats, dogs, and bearded dragon lizards. I have thirteen years of experience. I only care for dogs under 25lbs. If you want dependable and responsible care for your pets, I provide exemplary customer service. Any overnight petsitting agreements that are a week or more that are cancelled within 24 hours of the first day are subject to a $75.00 inconvenience fee. If it's a legitimate reason like illnesses, accidents, or extreme weather conditions, exceptions will be discussed prior to the starting date. This is necessary because I'm unable to schedule a client that I could have accepted. I hope this situation won't happen, but this is my business and my income is dependent on my clients. Thank you for your understanding.

Hired on Thumbtack

I recently hired Clare to pet sit for 5days/4nights. It was a last minute trip and she responded quickly to emails and we set up a in person meeting to go over details. Clare was on time and made sure to ask about our dog’s schedule, feeding, vet info, and was very accommodating. Our dog was very happy when we returned and Clare is very tidy and organized. Her rates are incredibly fair and we would definitely hire again!

Details: Dog • 1 pet • Taking pet outside • Providing companionship • Giving food and water • Overnight visit (10-12 hours) • My home, venue, etc.

Clare is very reliable and responsible and she certainly loves animals. We were visiting from out of town and needed someone to look after our two Boston Terriers during the day. Clare arrived promptly each day and kept in touch with us, giving us peace of mind and allowing us to enjoy our time while away from our girls. We would recommend hiring Clare for pet sitting services and we will use her again when we return to the Santa Rosa area.

Clare was great with our Weiner dog, Chip while we were in Southern CA for a couple nights. She was able to stay overnight and be with him during the day too so he wasn't lonely. She even brought in our garbage cans and picked up our mail. Plus our place was left in great condition. We highly recommend Clare.

Details: Dog • 1 pet • Giving food and water • Providing companionship • Taking pet outside • Overnight visit (10-12 hours) • Three times a day • My home, venue, etc.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My rates are $24 per day for 1 or 2 visits; $39 for 2-3 pets; $78 per overnight stay. Includes collecting mail, and newspapers.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When I get a request for pet sitting, I usually do a meet and greet with the prospective client to meet the pet and get to know the owner(s) and what services they want. I use a client intake form to get the information needed to do it and I'm fairly thorough. It cuts down on calls or texts interrupting the client's trip.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've had very diverse pets personally like cats, dogs, birds, bearded dragon lizards, gerbils, hamsters, fish, rabbits, and one client with goats.
