​Types of Pet Sitters:

​

  1. DAILY/Vacation Sitters: These sitters offer services at the client's home, with each visit lasting between 1-4 hours. Depending on the client's needs, there can be 1 to 3 visits per day, spanning from 1 day to 3 weeks or more. Daily sitters must be available for three specific time frames: morning visits (usually between 6 am and 10 am), mid-day visits (usually between 11 am and 3 pm), and evening visits (usually between 3 pm and 10 pm). It is important to note that availability is required for all three time frames, and this does not imply weekend-only work. You may need to pet sit for an entire week, potentially making 2-3 visits per day for a single client during their absence. We do not share jobs.

  2. Drop In Visits: Drop In visits can last 30-60 minutes. Depending on the client's needs, there can be 1-3 visits per day, spanning from 1 day to 3 weeks or more. The sitter must be available for three specific time frames: morning visits (usually between 6 am and 10 am), mid-day visits (usually between 11 am and 3 pm), and evening visits (usually between 3 pm and 10 pm). It is important to note that availability is required for all three time frames, and this does not imply weekend-only work. You may need to do drop ins for an entire week, potentially making 2-3 visits per day for a single client during their absence. We do not share jobs. 

  3. MID-DAY Sitters: These sitters must be available Monday through Sunday, primarily between the hours of 10 am and 3 pm. Mid-day visits are often combined with either daily visits or overnight service.

  4. OVERNIGHT Sitters: Overnight sitters stay and sleep at the client's home for a duration of 10-12 hours, from evening to morning. It is important for overnight sitters to have their own place of residence, as this is considered supplemental income. Depending on the length of the client's reservation, you may stay at one client's home for a single night up to 10+ consecutive nights. It is possible to work a regular 9-5 job and still be an overnight sitter.
