Booking Restrictions and Fees
Services On-Demand
At Paleo Pet Sitting, we're dedicated to top-tier pet care, even in urgent situations. Though our usual booking requires five days' notice, we understand emergencies arise. To ensure our pet sitters are available, last-minute bookings have fees:
Last-Minute Booking (Within 5 Days):
Booking within five days incurs a $10 per visit fee. This covers scheduling adjustments and resource allocation.
Emergency Booking (Within 24 Hours):
Within 24 hours, a $25 per visit fee applies. It compensates pet sitters for quick rearrangements, ensuring your pets are cared for.
These fees ensure our responsive service during unexpected times. We appreciate your support, contributing to our pet sitters' dedication.
Note: These fees are added to regular rates. They're clearly detailed in your invoice. For questions, contact our office. We're here to ensure your pet care needs are met efficiently.
