We offer several pet sitting packages to cater to the needs of your cats, dogs, rabbits, pocket pets/small animals, and other pets. 

Drop In Visits – $25 one visit in a day*     $35 on holidays*

                               $45 two visits in a day*     $60 on holidays*

                               $65 three visits in a day*     $85 on holidays*
Morning, Evening, and Midday visits are available.  Visits are approximately 1/2 hour each and include feeding, refilling water, dispensing medication as required, scooping litter boxes and/or changing bedding, snuggle and play time.  Short “Potty walk” each visit for dogs.  Newspapers and mail will be brought in and houseplants will be watered upon request.  Watering for outdoor plants is extra.  The Menagerie requires a minimum of one visit per day for all animals, two per day for dogs, and 3 per day for dogs who will have no "potty access" when unattended.  Based on individual animals needs, The Menagerie may set individual minimum visit requirements at the time of your consultation if the sitter deems it necessary for the animal's health and well being. 

 

  • Perfect for quick overnight trips!
  • Wonderful for independent pets who require minimal care.
  • Less expensive than overnight care. 

 

Overnight Visits – $75/night*     $100/holiday night*
These all night long visits include all the services of evening and morning Drop In visits with the added benefit of company and security all night -- that's right, the sitter will actually spend the night in your home with your pets giving them extra love and attention and making your them feel as safe and secure as if you were home.  If your dog will not have "potty access" during the day, The Menagerie requires that you add either a Drop In sitting visit or a Dog Walk during the day. 

  • Ideal for longer trips
  • Keeps your pets' routine as normal as possible. 
  • A must for the sanity of pets with separation anxiety who become stressed when left alone.

Call during or after visit – $2 for voicemail, $5 for conversation
For those of you pet parents who are always extra worried about your babies and spend your vacation wondering if you gave the wrong dates or if your pet sitter's been rushed to the hospital in a comma and is unable to tell anyone that your pets need attention, we can give you a call to let you know how things are going. 

 

Additional Consultation – $25
If there have been changes to the pets or routines of the house or if you move, an additional consultation may be wanted or required to go over changes in person. 

 

Please Note

All new clients must schedule an in-home consultation prior to the beginning of their service.  Please have a copy of your pet's vaccination record and 2 copies of your house key ready for us at the time of consultation.  Please call or email to schedule your FREE consultation.
 

All new group Walk dogs require a minimum of 5 individual Walks prior to introduction to the group.  Group admittance is contingent upon fitting into the pack safely. 

 

For the safety of all clients and pets, all cats and dogs must be able to provide proof of vaccination prior to beginning service and must be on a flea prevention medication, preferably Advantage, Frontline, or Revolution.   A collar with dog license and ID attached is required for all dogs. 

 

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.
