Services & Rates
In-Home Consultation
FREE*
*Key exchange is also FREE if done during the in-person consultation. Otherwise there is a $15.00 charge to pick up the keys, as well as a $15.00 charge to return them (unless I am able to leave them in a mail slot), if they are not to be retained for future visits. Clients are strongly encouraged to leave a set of keys with Greg Daniels Pet Sitting for future sits. However, if there is no key retention I may not have the time to come back over and pick up your keys each time you go away, and thus would have to turn the entire sit down, whereas if I had the keys in-hand, and had availability during your time away, I could have easily managed the sit for you.

E-Mail Messaging
FREE*
*Usually you will only be contacted during the sitting assignment if there is an emergency or if some major problem arises in your absence. You may also receive an email with some photos Greg Daniels Pet Sitting took of your cats or other pets. If you are not contacted, however, you can be sure that everything is fine with your cats and your home too. However, those of you who who prefer to be contacted periodically throughout the sitting assignment need only let Greg Daniels Pet Sitting know beforehand. Every effort will be made to send occasional email updates (the preferred method), usually every other day or every third day, as time permits.
