Request Pet Care (pet sitting or dog walking)

Step 1: Contact Tara via email to request pet care: onenesscaninecare@proton.me

Please provide the following information in your email:

Where you are located
Services requested (dog walking, pet sitting and/or overnight stays)
Dates of service
Summary about you pets: name, age, breed and anything else you'd like to share (we'll cover details during our initial call)
Your contact information
How you heard about me

Next, we'll set up an initial call to give us a chance to connect. Plan for about 30 minutes. During or shortly after the call, we'll set up an appointment for a meet & greet with you and your pets.

Step 2: Meet & Greet

Our meet & greet with you and your pets will be conducted at your home so everyone can get acquainted, and together we can determine if we are a good fit. It’s helpful if all primary family members are present for the meet & greet, but not required. This is an opportunity for you to share any important requirements concerning your pets. Our visit will last approximately one hour. There is no charge for this visit.

If more than one meet & greet is required we can establish a follow up. A meet & greet does not mean your services are confirmed and keys are not picked up at this time.

Step 3: Client Portal Account

Following the meet & greet, I will email you a link to create an account in my pet sitting software (Time to Pet).

The software will allow you to:

Enter your name, address and contact info
Enter pet details
E-sign the service agreement
Enter credit card data (you will not be charged until services are complete)
Review invoice charges
Manage services

You can also use your account for dog training if needed.
