Upcoming Availability

Below is a current list of days when I’m NOT available.

If I’m unavailable on days when you need pet sitting, I won’t leave you hanging! We have a lot of options for keeping your companions well cared-for and I’m happy to make all the arrangements if you don’t want to deal with the detail.

  • November NOT available on 24-25 (Mon-Tues)
  • December – NOT available on 1-5 (Mon-Fri), 16-17 (Tues-Weds). Additional days off not this month not yet determined. (I’ll schedule time off around clients’ needs.)

The big picture: on many Wednesdays I take the day “off” (staying home to work on administrative tasks). I also try to schedule at least 1 actual, legit, honest-to-goodness “day off” each month.

Scheduling early means you’ll get bigger “thank you” discounts. Also, it enables me to plan my personal life activities around your trips so I won’t miss a visit with your companions.
