About

Hi! I'm Peggy! I am a hard-working, dependable person who can help you with house-sitting, pet-sitting, or errands. I am an experienced pet owner who pays attention to detail. I am the type of person to leave a hotel room cleaner than when I checked in! I am also the type of person who actually likes running errands. Need someone to pick up or drop off something? I can do that. Need someone to wait for the cable person? I can do that! Need someone to visit/sit with your critter? I can do that! My average charge is $25/visit to check in on your critter and $60 per night for overnight visits. However, prices can always vary, depending on the nature of the job (e.g. administering medicine, extra walks, distance, time needed, etc.). I have passed the Thumbtack background check and have several "repeat" clients! Anyway, thanks for stopping by! I look forward to working with you soon.

Peggy helped me take my cat to the vet today. I have an injury and was unable to carry my cat down a flight of stairs and to the vet. It was such a relief to have Peggy carry my cat in his carrier and also drive us both to the vet and home again. She is so friendly and accommodating and has the gift of making you feel like you've known her forever. I will definitely hire her again.

Details: Cat • 1 pet • Providing companionship • Standard visit (60 minutes) • Once in total • My home, venue, etc.

Peggy did a great job with my 3 kitties, even dealing with one of mine who is, ehm, difficult. She sent updates everyday and was a real pro! My kids were all taken care of when I got home and the house was clean! The next time I'm in need of a cat sitter, I will definitely call Peggy!

Details: Cat • 3 pets • Changing litter or bedding • Providing companionship • Giving food and water • Short visit (30 minutes) • Once a day • My home, venue, etc.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I believe my prices are fair and are always negotiable, especially if providing services for multiple days.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I'd like to have a meet-and-greet prior to accepting a position that involves pet or house sitting, as you should definitely meet the person that is caring for your fur babies or house. I also need to work out an exact schedule for when someone wants my services since I often have other commitments and am not always available for certain jobs.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I don't have any formal education or training for my work, but I've always had pets throughout my life (snake, rabbits, dog, cats). I'm between fur babies right now due to my schedule, but I love pets, so that's why I want to "borrow" yours for a bit.
