Why home beats boarding
Boarding at a “pet resort”
- An unfamiliar kennel, on someone else's schedule
- Stressful car rides, drop-offs, and pick-up windows
- Shared space with unfamiliar pets
Home, with Kamryn
- Their own bed, yard, and routine. Zero disruption
- A familiar neighbor, minutes away
- Her parents supervise every visit
Pets we care for
What's included with each visit
Each visit lasts up to 20 minutes. Care is based on your pet's routine and may include feeding, fresh water, a potty break or short walk, litter care, basic cleanup, playtime, and a photo update. Not every item applies to every pet, and everything fits within the visit.
Simple Neighborhood Pricing
Reliable neighborhood pet care at a neighbor-friendly price. Pet care is priced by the day, based on who's in your crew — each day rate includes that day's visits. Visits last up to 20 minutes and include basic care, attention, and a photo update.
Dog Days
$25/day
Up to 4 visits a day included — one simple rate
Feeding & fresh water · potty break or short walk · playtime · photo update
First two pets included — 2 dogs, or 1 dog + 1 cat
Each additional dog or cat: $5/day · max 4 pets total
Up to 20 minutes per visit · photo update included
Cat Days
$20/day
cats, no dogs · up to 2 visits a day included
Feeding & fresh water · litter box · playtime · photo update
First two cats included · each additional cat: $5/day · max 4 cats total
A 3rd or 4th visit adds $5 each per day.
Small-Pet Days
$15/day
rabbits · hamsters · fish · similar household pets · 1 check-in a day included
Feeding & fresh water · basic habitat check · basic cleanup · photo update
Extra check-ins add $5 each per day. Fish and small animals are counted by the tank, cage, or habitat, never by the individual pet.
Additional fees
Your day rate is the highest tier in your crew — a home with a dog and a cat books at the $25 dog rate, and it covers up to two dogs or cats in any mix. The additional-pet fee counts dogs and cats only, so rabbits, hamsters, and fish never add a per-pet charge. Each additional dog or cat is $5 per day, charged once per day, not per visit. Bookings take up to 4 dogs and cats total — for a bigger crew, text us and we'll plan it together. Additional charges may apply when pets require separate walks, separate feeding routines, or care that cannot be completed within the regular 20-minute visit.
New Year's Day, Easter, Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve. Charged once per service day, never per visit, for example, a dog's $25 day on a holiday totals $35 for that day. Visits per day: 1–4 for any booking; 3 or 4 visits on a school day are reviewed case-by-case, and Kamryn will confirm she can fit them around school.
Dog Walks and Potty Breaks
A short leash walk or yard potty break is included with each pet-care visit. Short walks generally last 5 to 10 minutes and are completed within the visit's 20-minute time limit. The exact walking time depends on the pet's feeding, water, cleanup, and other care needs.
Extended Walk: add an extended walk of up to 20 minutes for $5 per walk. Extended walks are separate from the regular pet-care visit and are available when additional exercise or walking time is requested. When two dogs can be walked together safely, the short walk is part of the regular visit; when dogs must be walked separately, each separate walk is a $5 extended walk.
Plant Watering
Watering for up to five plants is included with pet-care visits. Plants may be indoors, outdoors, or a combination of both. Each additional group of up to five plants costs $10 per day.
You pick which days your plants need water when you book. Only those days are charged, not every day of the stay.
Example: a customer has 10 plants that need watering for two days. The first five plants are included. The additional five plants cost $10 per day. The total plant-watering charge is $20.
