FAQs

Q:  There are additional services that I’d like you to handle while I am away.  Can you handle additional services?
A.  In most cases, we can accommodate additional services, but there may be additional fees involved.  Please call us to discuss.

Q:  How many visits a day does my pet need?
A.  It is completely up to you how many visits your pet will need, as you know your pet best.  Based on our experience, dogs typically need 2 – 3 visits per day (mainly for attention and potty breaks) and cats need 1 – 2 visits per day.

Q:  What types of pets do you typically care for?
A.  We primarily care for dogs and cats, as well as rabbits, fish and amphibians, birds, gerbils, and other caged (small) animals.  We do not typically take on large animals (i.e. horses), farm animals, reptiles/snakes, or exotic pets (i.e. big cats) as we are not specialized in their care.     

Q:  What happens if there is a storm that makes roads impassable?  How will you care for my pet? 
A.  Rest assured that we will find a way to reach your pet(s).  This may mean that we contract a pet sitter that is closer to your home for that particular day, or snow-shoe in from a main road to make sure your pet is cared for. 

Q:  What happens if my pet gets ill or is injured, and I can’t be reached?
A.  During the orientation meeting, we will have you sign a veterinary release form that gives us the ability to care for your pet at what ever level you give us permission for while you are away.  In addition, during orientation we will ask you for emergency contact information (a contact other than you).  We will contact them if an emergency arises and you can’t be reached.

Q:  How are my pets and home protected if something goes wrong?
A.  Warm Fuzzies Pet Sitters is fully bonded and insured.  What that means is that our insurance covers any damages done to you, your pets or your home if that damage is caused by Warm Fuzzies Pet Sitters.
