Overnight pet care is a specialized service with limited availability. This service tends to book a month in advance, more if over a holiday. The care is provided in the pet owner’s home and is available for both dogs and/or cats.
Overnight care is an average of 8-10 hours. It includes a 15-20 minute brief potty & dinner visit anytime between 4-6 pm if necessary. Then we return between 8-8:30 pm and depart anytime between 6-8 am the following morning. It does not include mid-day visits.
To provide this care for dogs there are prerequisites:
- They must be over 12 months old.
- They must be completely house-trained.
- They must be able to roam freely and not be charged during the evening.
- They must be able to hold it for between 8-10 hours if necessary without accidents. (Additional mid-day visits are available for an additional fee)
- They will not be confined or crated by Shannon’s Pet Sitting for more than 8 hours without an opportunity to run or have free movement exercise in a designated enclosed “safe area” for at least 20 minutes.
- The home must be a smoke-free environment
They are unable to provide overnight care in a home where people smoke in the house. Shannon has lost her Dad, Uncle, Grandma, and dear friend Paul all to lung cancer. Shannon was a smoker herself many years ago & does not pass judgment on anybody who chooses to do so in their own home. However, due to the health risks of 2nd hand smoke, they will not spend extended amounts of time in the pet owner’s home.
