Overnight Care (in your Home)
We do not board your pets in our homes, we will be sleeping in your home. Please book as far in advance as possible, as this service books up quickly!
How it works
Aubrey or a caregiver does visits throughout the day and then will sleepover in your home. (The visit lengths may vary for what your budget allows). Pictures and/or videos with updates will be sent to you while you're away. In an emergency situation your pet taxi trip will not be charged to you, however the time we spend with them while we're with them will be charged $10/hr. Non-emergent pet taxi trips to the vet, groomer, daycare, dog park all get charged $1 per mile driven.A quote will be provided once Aubrey has all of your pet's care details, dates you;ll be away, and how many visits you'd like us throughout the day.
Rates
Idea of the cost according to a generalized basic schedule: The rates will coincide with the "Dog Care" visits plus an additional $25 per night for the sleepover itself ($30 per holiday night). The $25/$30 sleepover fee will be waived after the 3rd night, if you have us sleeping over for 5+ nights. 8am, 12pm, 5pm, 9pm (30 mins @ each visit) and sleepover. On a weeknight the basic cost would be $105/night. 8am (30mins), 12pm (15mins), 5pm (30mins), 9pm (15mins) and sleepover. On a weeknight the basic cost would be $95/night. 8am (30mins), 2:30pm (30mins), 9pm (15mins) and sleepover. On a weeknight the basic cost would be $80/night.
